We’ve thrown out the old rules to focus on what truly matters: creating a kickass product that makes people say, 'Wow'. We don’t care about short-term wins; we build systems that stand the test of time. If you thrive in a culture of excellence without compromise and want to see your work have an immediate, remarkable impact, you’re in the right place.

At Mashgin, we build technology that changes how people experience everyday moments and our Support and Deployment team is at the center of bringing that to life. As we grow, we're looking for a Lead Deployment Engineer who wants to be in the thick of it: whether that's in the field launching a new location or supporting a remote technician working through a complex issue from across the country.

This is a blended leadership role. You'll oversee a mixed team of field deployment engineers and remote technical support specialists and you'll need to be credible on both sides. Your first 90 days are built for immersion: taking tickets, doing deployments, and getting to know the people and the operation from the inside. That foundation is what makes everything that follows the mentorship, the process work, the cross-functional relationships actually stick.

If you're energized by solving real problems, helping people grow, and being part of a team that's evolving as fast as the company around it, this is the opportunity for you.

2–4 years of experience in a lead or management role with at least 6 direct reports, ideally within a technical, field operations, or customer support environment.

You came up through the ranks, you've done the hands-on work and you lead from that experience, not around it.

Demonstrated ability to coach and develop team members, including having direct, constructive conversations with people who are well-liked or resistant to feedback.

Comfortable with up to 25% travel, including occasional last-minute deployments.

Self-starter who makes sound decisions independently and doesn't need constant oversight to stay on track.

Based in or near a major airport in the West Coast or Central time zone — Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Denver, Phoenix, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area are preferred locations.

• Background in building knowledge bases, internal documentation, or training resources. 

• Familiarity with field deployment operations, vendor coordination, and working with teammates across different time zones and schedules. 

• Bachelor’s Degree.

• Strong technical ability: you should be comfortable doing things like installing drivers, diagnosing system issues, and building PCs using off-the-shelf components.
