What makes this job meaningful?

The workplace has changed. Todays employees expect more than just pay or title, they seek careers where they can learn, grow, be challenged, and be valued for the ideas they bring to the table.

Unfortunately, most organizations lack the tools and structure needed to create this kind of coaching and development culture across every team and every manager. Instead, their development efforts are buried in disconnected systems or compliance-based HR software.

When you join Leadr, youll be helping us to solve this incredibly complex, yet worthwhile, puzzle of one to one people development at scale within organizations.

Leadr exists to help every manager become a coach and give every employee a voice and you will play a crucial role in turning this vision into reality.

Our development team at Leadr gets to pioneer this vision through building our world-class product and the systems to support it. We take feedback from our team and customers to create a roadmap to build.

Why Youll Be Motivated To Apply

  • You will start as a senior-level IC with the potential to achieve a VP-level within a few years. Leadr presents you the ability to exponentially grow your career.
  • Leadr is an early stage startup and with that comes amazing growth opportunities.

  • As we are coming out of beta we are looking to speed-up, not slow-down. During the beta phase it was ok to deploy releases to production every 2 weeks but going forward we need a more sophisticated build pipeline. Our goal is to have production updated multiple times per day. Safely! Thats not going to happen without your wizardry.
  • You will enable us to ship value faster and more frequently without breaking things or disrupting users.
  • Long-term were going to need to develop a culture of reliability and predictability. In the years down the road youll build a whole team to drive these goals. Youll be hiring great talent, motivating and leading them
