About The Position

We are seeking a transformational platform product leader to unify Teamworks’ multi-product environment into a single, modern operating system. In this role, you’ll guide the architecture, standards, and shared services that connect our products, accelerate engineering velocity, and unlock cross-product opportunities across the organization. This is an exciting opportunity to step into a highly visible, high-leverage role where your work will directly influence company-wide architecture, empower dozens of teams, and shape how athletes, coaches, and organizations experience Teamworks for years to come. Game Plan - How You'll Drive Impact: Lead Platform Consolidation: Drive the creation of Teamworks’ unified technical foundation, including a centralized identity system, shared schemas, common design system, and reusable APIs to unify our multi-product ecosystem. Accelerate Unified Mobile App & Unified Web Execution: Partner across Product and Engineering to stabilize the UMA rollout and define a durable unified web strategy that enables shared components, frameworks, and long-term governance. Build Cross-Product Integration Standards: Establish platform-wide patterns for Product-to-Product APIs, service contracts, integration governance, documentation, and the elimination of one-off approaches. Enable New Product Capabilities: Ensure emerging products can build rapidly on a shared platform, supporting unified data, strong service ownership, and seamless frontend and backend integration. Architect AI Infrastructure: Partner with Intelligence and AI teams to develop scalable data pipelines, feature stores, ML Ops foundations, and inference patterns that unlock model-driven features across the ecosystem. Ship a Robust API Platform: Deliver a unified API gateway with consistent authentication, rate limiting, observability, and source-of-truth domain ownership that powers both internal and third-party integrations.
