<div><strong>Type</strong>: Full-Time<br><strong>Reports to</strong>: President and VP of Administration<br><strong>Manages</strong>: Media and Online Learning Manager, web/tech contractors<br><br><strong>Primary Objective</strong>: Lead the development and maintenance of the Forum of Christian Leaders’ digital ecosystem (technological infrastructure, web assets, media production, and online learning), ensuring these systems and programs serve all who engage with them.<br><br></div><div><strong>What is the Forum of Christian Leaders?</strong></div><div>The Forum of Christian Leaders (FOCL) exists to unite, equip, and resource global evangelical leaders toward world evangelism and the renewal of the biblical church. Our ministry is primarily focused on Europe and consists of the following four quadrants:</div><ul><li><a href="https://euroleadership.org/"><strong>European Leadership Forum Annual Meeting</strong></a>: A yearly, weeklong gathering of 750 evangelical leaders from over 50 countries; held each year in Wisła, Poland</li><li><a href="https://www.foclinitiatives.org/"><strong>Forum Initiatives</strong></a>: Spiritual and leadership development opportunities that provide intensive, specialized training for small groups of evangelical leaders</li><li><a href="https://www.walesleadershipforum.org.uk/"><strong>Forum Movement</strong></a>: Local and regional events organized by European Leadership Forum participants that provide contextualized training and outreach in native languages</li><li><a href="https://foclonline.org/"><strong>Forum Global</strong></a>: Strategies that share the European church’s leadership lessons with the global church, includes an online media library and free webinars</li></ul><div><br><strong>Why Europe?<br></strong>Many view Europe through the lens of its Christian past. However, less than 2% of today’s<br>Europeans identify as evangelicals, while nearly 18% are atheists or agnostics. European<br>evangelical leaders are often overwhelmed and isolated in this environment. We train, mentor, and encourage these leaders as they seek to be faithful to their callings.<br><br>Moreover, we recognize that Europe has unique influence on the international stage. Many<br>movements have European origins, including the Renaissance, the Scientific Revolution, and<br>Postmodernism. These ideologies have shaped modern cultures, sparked global conflicts, and informed generations of leaders. We believe that to invest in Europe is to invest in the world.<br><br><strong>Why work for FOCL?</strong></div><ul><li><strong>Serve evangelical leaders from across the world</strong>: FOCL employees connect, train, and encourage brothers and sisters from all over the globe.</li><li><strong>Develop a wide range of skills</strong>: Because FOCL is a small organization, employees “wear many different hats” and therefore have the opportunity to develop skills in a way they wouldn’t in a more traditional, strictly departmental work environment.</li><li><strong>Travel Europe:</strong> All full-time employees travel to Poland each May to facilitate the European Leadership Forum. Many take advantage of the opportunity for personal European travel following the event.</li><li><strong>Join a close-knit team of fellow believers</strong>: The FOCL team is small and committed to loving and supporting one another in both work and life outside of the office.</li><li><strong>Grow your faith</strong>: FOCL’s work naturally provides opportunity for one-on-one and small group discussion on God and faith.</li></ul><div><br><strong>What does the Director of Technology and Online Learning do?<br></strong>The Director of Technology and Online Learning will provide strategic, creative, and technical leadership in FOCL’s digital ecosystem. Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following:</div><ul><li>Develop and maintain FOCL’s web assets so they clearly and compellingly communicate the mission of the organization and the opportunities that exist to engage with that mission as participants, donors, and volunteers</li><li>Develop and implement a media strategy that provides evangelical leaders with engaging, biblically-sound video and audio content that instructs them, encourages them, challenges them, and strengthens them in their callings</li><li>Develop and implement an online learning strategy that provides interactive, relevant educational experiences to evangelical leaders, meeting their pressing needs and helping them engage thoughtfully and biblically with contemporary issues</li><li>Develop and maintain FOCL's technological infrastructure, providing the FOCL team with reliable, secure systems, software, and hardware that support productivity, efficiency, and accuracy</li></ul><div><br></div><div>Other tasks and projects will be assigned at the discretion of FOCL leadership.

Senior Full Stack Engineer, Web & Mobile

<div><strong>Location: </strong><strong><em>This role is fully remote but will directly manage team members spanning East Africa Time to US Pacific Time. You must overlap with East Africa Time by at least 3 hours. As an example, 6PM East Africa Time is 11AM US Eastern time in the summer and 10AM in the winter. In practice, if you are in the Eastern US timezone, that means being regularly available for 8AM meetings and some 7AM ones. We know people have commitments like school drop-offs, so you’re encouraged to set a schedule that works for you—as long as there’s sufficient overlap with the team. </em></strong><em>We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of employment Visas in the U.S. or U.K. at this time.</em></div><div><br><strong>About this role</strong></div><div>We’re hiring a Director of Engineering to build a best-in-class engineering department in a moment of rapid growth; we’ve more than doubled our engineering team in the last year and are continuing to hire.</div><div>Your initial focus will be on our cash delivery platform: you'll own the technical systems that deliver the next $4B to people in extreme poverty, our goal for the next nine years, with scenarios on the table that would require us to scale much faster. We recently launched a platform rebuild as a greenfield project, and the work ahead is scaling it from initial launch to delivering billions. This role is deliberately sequenced: you'll start close to the ground — directly managing engineers, partnering with our platform product lead on roadmap and delivery, and getting deep in the operational details (on-call, incident response) — because we believe the leader who builds that context firsthand is the one who can design the right organization for the next level of scale.</div><div><br>You will own maintaining and scaling a strong engineering culture through rapid growth: shaping how we hire and structure teams, recruiting and retaining a high talent density team, and building strong operating processes and culture that encourage open debate in search of the best outcomes for recipients rather than attachment to being right or looking good; continuous learning, improvement, and adoption of new tools; deep product ownership in service of impact for recipients; and strong judgment about tradeoffs. You'll set a high technical quality bar, pressure-testing designs and tradeoffs while still giving a very senior team high autonomy.</div><div><br>You’ll shape our multi-year technical strategy: where the platform should be shared across product lines versus split or modular, when to build versus buy versus extend, how to sequence major architectural transitions, and how to balance investment with feature development. You optimize for recipient impact, not the most interesting technical problem. We're not driven by hot new technical trends; we're building the hard tech that matters to recipients — integrations with mobile money rails and delivery in low-connectivity contexts.</div><div><br>You'll represent engineering at the senior leadership level and own the interface between engineering and team members who haven't worked heavily with a product development organization before. That means learning our programs and the realities of our field teams, and working with partner teams to build our development practices, whether building trust that an MVP is a starting point rather than a final answer, or helping teams see why it’s worth taking time out of their urgent delivery goals to give feedback on a demo or try something new.</div><div><br>As GiveDirectly scales, technology is what allows us to reach more people without breaking. Your leadership means getting more cash to the people who need it most.</div><div><br><strong>Reports to: VP of Technology</strong></div><div><strong>Level</strong>: Director</div><div><strong>Travel Requirement: </strong>Must be able to travel ~2-3 times per year to one of our countries of operation for team retreats or field visits</div><div><br><strong>What you’ll do:</strong></div><ul><li>Own the engineering organization for our cash delivery platform: its structure, staffing strategy, and operating model — and redesign these as the team grows, including deciding when and how to build out a management layer (today: 6 engineers on the cash delivery platform, 11 engineers total; additional hires planned this year)</li><li>Own multi-year technical strategy for the platform: defining interfaces and boundaries between domains, determining when to build versus buy versus extend, and how to sequence major architectural transitions — driving the biggest bets to a decision with the Platform Product Lead, VP of Technology, and leadership</li><li>Protect and scale the culture as we grow: open debate, product ownership, continuous improvement, and strong engineering foundations</li><li>Own engineering delivery — the commitments leadership and stakeholders plan against, platform reliability, and the trade-offs between roadmap speed and platform investment — in close partnership with the Platform Product Lead</li><li>Drive operational excellence, including on-call, incident response, code quality, testing, AI, and deployment practices</li><li>Represent engineering at the leadership level: translate technical realities into business decisions and vice versa, and partner with diverse stakeholders to create the enabling environment for product development</li><li>Coach and develop engineers through 1:1s, feedback, career planning, and performance management; hire, onboard, and retain a strong, inclusive team</li><li>Set the technical quality bar: stay close enough to the technical work to weigh in on architecture, review designs, and help the team make sound trade-offs, without becoming the bottleneck</li></ul><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>What you’ll bring:</strong></div><ul><li><strong>Exceptional alignment with GiveDirectly Values</strong> and active demonstration of our core competencies: emotional intelligence, problem solving, project management, follow-through, and fostering inclusivity.

We use an accredited third party salary aggregator to calculate what we believe to be competitive pay based on role, location, and cost of living. We also have a no negotiation policy to ensure we are paying staff equitably across roles.&nbsp;</div><div><br>Unless otherwise noted, the benefits stipend may be used to cover benefits or taken as additional taxable income.</div><div><br><strong>United States</strong></div><ul><li><strong>Base Salary:</strong> $200,000</li><li><strong>Bonus at Target Performance:</strong> 15% (~$30,000, with potential for upside.
