Having recently completed a full rebuild of their product, the 1-on-1s team are experimenting with new features to encourage user adoption, alongside working on exciting new initiatives to help bring smart, actionable insights into 1-on-1s, and making it ridiculously easy for managers to have successful 1-on-1 conversations every time. 

This is a Team Lead role that consists of three key areas: People Leadership, Technical Leadership and Delivery. You will lead your engineers by helping to solve complex problems, unsticking the team and removing blockers so they can do their best work!
