We take pride in providing employees with the autonomy to develop technology that's intuitive, secure, and accessible for everyone.

As head of Meraki Dashboard, you will lead the engineering teams responsible for developing the Meraki Dashboard application. Dashboard is the face of the Meraki cloud ecosystem network administrators have grown to love. You will take Meraki Dashboard to the next level of simplicity and scale as we innovate around opportunities in AI and security to meet the needs of administrators of some of the largest networks in the world.

Above all else, success in these efforts will depend on your ability to support the team of full-stack web developers and build strong relationships with other engineering leaders, UX, product management, and security partners. Meraki engineering is highly collaborative, so the engineers work closely within their teams and the partner teams they support with the Dashboard application platform.

• Guide engineering teams through defining short, medium, and long-term goals to achieve the vision.
• Lead the recruiting strategy to build a diverse and inclusive team : driving decisions on whom the team needs to hire, partnering with our recruiters to define requirements, and talking to candidates.
• Mentor and coach managers and senior engineers through technical and non-technical challenges.
• Develop career plans for people on your team and help them do the same for theirs.
• Encourage thoughtful and creative ways to recognize achievement.
• Provide counsel as a member of senior engineering leadership.
• Assist with engineering-wide initiatives such as offsites, training, and process evolution.

You are an ideal candidate if you :

We encourage you to drop us a line even if you don't have all the points above. That's a lot of different areas of responsibility! We will help you pick them up because we believe that great leaders come from a diverse set of backgrounds.

At Cisco Meraki, we're challenging the status quo with the power of diversity, inclusion, and collaboration. When we connect different perspectives, we can imagine new possibilities, inspire innovation, and release the full potential of our people. We're building an employee experience that includes appreciation, belonging, growth, and purpose for everyone.
