THE ROLE Milk Moovement is seeking an experienced Team Lead to guide our team in developing and maintaining scalable enterprise SaaS applications that continue to revolutionize dairy and other agricultural industries. As milk traverses the supply chain, it gets tested at various stages for quality and component data. This allows for routing it to the appropriate processor and ultimately for optimal conversion into your favorite dairy products. In addition to determining how and where milk is processed, quality data impacts how producers are compensated for the milk they produce. The Quality & Processing Team creates and maintains data pipelines, APIs, and dashboards for ingesting and publishing quality data as well as web and mobile tools for ensuring the right milk lands in the right place for processing. As the Q&P Team Lead, you will be the sprint-driver, mentor, and lead to our Q&P value stream, working closely with our VP of Engineering and product team to build performant, scalable, cloud native solutions to address customer and industry needs. Here are some other examples of things you will do: - Partner with development, design, product, and sales teams to define and deliver new solutions to organize, share, and make predictions on quality data and optimize the processing of milk - Provide architectural guidance and technical leadership to your development team - Work on problems with your teams, roll up your sleeves, form an opinion, and advocate for engineering-specific roadmap items - Oversee the delivery of exceptional user experiences by establishing clear definitions of successful deployments WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR Milk Moovement seeks to have a diverse, inclusive, team-oriented, and curiosity driven herd. Our team lives up to our core values, and we expect you will be excited to do so as well.

The rest is up to you. 🐮 Enhanced health & dental coverage across North America. 🐮 Remote work environment - work from wherever you want or from one of our hubs in Halifax, St. John’s or Minneapolis. 🐮 Flexible hours - night owl or early riser?
