Tech Lead, Collaborative Actions

We are looking for a product-focused Tech Lead (TL) to lead our Collaborative Actions team. Collaborative Actions work on building product features and experiences that remove barriers for users to connect and collaborate seamlessly and securely. Our work takes us across the Asana codebase to help strengthen and improve some of the highest impacts and highest visibility parts of the app including invitations, sharing, and permissions. 

As TL of Collaborative Actions, you will be responsible for coming up with the technical vision for the team, partnering across functions like Product and Design to prioritize, plan, and drive the execution of our team’s impactful roadmap.

The work we do and the decisions we make often unblock other teams’ work, so you’ll often be working with other teams to help sequence and plan initiatives across teams. If you’re interested in driving impact by making collaboration within Asana faster, easier, and more secure, we’d love to hear from you!
