Director of Engineering

*This role requires a hybrid schedule in our Charlotte, NC office; Tuesday-Thursday in-office, Monday and Friday remote. Additionally, this position does not offer visa sponsorship.*

On the Technology team, you'll turn big ideas into products that are functional, easy to use, and best in class. Our engineers are some of the best and brightest in the business, and we work in a collaborative environment that challenges each of us to raise our own bar.

This organization builds the products and platforms behind LendingTree's consumer experience — the marketplace journeys consumers move through, the logged-in account experience they return to, the recommendation and personalization capabilities that guide them, and the integrations that connect LendingTree to the lenders, servicers, and data partners powering it all.

LendingTree is hiring a Director of Engineering to lead a multi-team engineering organization responsible for our consumer-facing products and the platforms behind them. You'll own the engineering strategy, guide architecture and delivery across your portfolio, and you'll be accountable for the technical health, velocity, and reliability of everything your teams ship.

This is a broad, highly cross-functional leadership role. You'll partner with Product, Design, Data Science, and Business stakeholders to shape the roadmap, and you'll be a senior voice on how we build — architecture, engineering standards, platform investment, and talent. Your portfolio will include ownership of the logged-in customer experience, our second- and third-party partner integrations, and the recommendation and personalization capabilities that shape what consumers see. Scope will flex over time with business priorities, so we're looking for a leader who can operate well across product areas rather than in a single lane.

AI is a core part of this role on both sides of the equation: what we build and how we build it. You'll drive AI into the platforms and customer experiences your teams own — personalization, recommendations, assisted and conversational journeys — and you'll be one of the leaders shaping how our engineers work with AI day to day. Both come with accountability for adoption, quality, and measurable results.

You'll lead through engineering managers and senior engineers, set technical direction, and stay close enough to the details to make good calls under ambiguity.
