Experience managing engineers: hiring them, growing them, running performance honestly and shipping on a predictable cadence.
A backend engineering background, strong architecture instincts and enough technical currency that your engineers respect your technical opinion.
A delivery track record. Specific things that shipped, on a schedule you can describe, and an honest account of what slipped and why.
Experience building a team, not only running one. You know how to assess for potential, close a candidate and set someone up so their first ninety days work.
Genuine engagement with AI-led engineering. You don't need to be an expert, but you can't manage engineers working this way from the outside. You need to use the tools yourself and want to get good at them.
Judgment, and the nerve to use it. You'll make calls with incomplete information and own them out loud.
Low ego. You take feedback from your own engineers and change your mind in public.
