Description

Apollo needs a Director of Engineering in VA who can argue passionately about Stakeholder Management, then commit to whatever the team decides. The pitch is honest — $191,000 - $283,000, real ownership of technology outcomes, and an Apollo crew in Charlottesville that has your back.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using REST API and Linux
  • Profile Stakeholder Management memory use and chase down the leaks crashing Charlottesville nodes
  • Build the Linux tooling that makes every other Charlottesville engineer faster
  • Sketch REST API sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone
  • Land Project Management performance wins Apollo can measure in VA retention numbers
  • Translate fuzzy product wishes from Apollo stakeholders into shippable Selenium services

What You'll Bring

  • Detail-oriented approach with a commitment to accuracy
  • Comfort being accountable for a mission-driven outcome in a temporary role
  • Pattern recognition earned across many technology engagements
  • Strong time-management skills and a bias toward action

At its core, Apollo is an innovative bet that Charlottesville, VA can out-build anyone when it comes to Project Management. Candid, kind feedback is part of the job, and we coach toward growth rather than blame.

The offer rewards both ends, $191,000 - $283,000 for your REST API today and mentorship for the director leader you become tomorrow.

The search for a Director of Engineering is in full swing, and we want to fill it soon.

If Apollo keeps showing up in your search, take the hint and finally apply.
