Experience leading 20+ teams of software engineers to deliver stellar results
Experience with security issues associated with distributed systems and large scale consumer internet services
Strong preference for individuals who have commercial software development experience; everything from big data to gaming to operating systems
Demonstrated ability to work in a highly cross-functional leadership role
Excellent communication skills both written and verbal
