Symmetry is the payroll infrastructure for software & payroll platforms powering the paychecks of over 64 million workers each year. Our fully integrated suite of payroll tax APIs and software tools allows companies to solve tax compliance issues and build applications across the entirety of the payroll process.
AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Symmetry. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.
We are seeking a seasoned engineering leader for our product development team, passionate about leveraging AI to shape the future of our industry. This role is dual-focused: providing robust support for our existing core payroll products while proactively advancing the incorporation of AI throughout our entire product portfolio and Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). You will be a crucial driver in instilling an AI-native approach at every stage of development. You will lead a significant change in our shared services groups, like DevOps and Quality Assurance. The goal is to support our engineers more actively. You will also act as strategic partners, not just as a team that processes outputs. The ideal candidate will be an "activator," bringing execution rigor and vision to champion truly innovative, smart features and core capabilities through machine learning and generative AI. Your leadership will be integral to our company's growth, ensuring AI is a fundamental component of our product differentiation.
Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $189,000/yr to $237,000/yr in Scottsdale & most major metro locations. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Symmetry has a physical office space in Scottsdale. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role).
When approved to work from a location other than the office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required.
