Me! I don't just enjoy people management, I am passionate about leadership and consider it to be my strongest skill set.
[I see I'm a bit late to the party on this once since the latest replies were in 2019. It seems like the underlying concern about lack of management capacity in EA organizations is still a pressing issue though. Does anyone strongly agree/disagree? Please comment as I'd love to chat further, or send me a message]
I have 11.5 years of experience managing software teams in industry (Amazon, Bloomberg). I'm now pivoting my career to EA and have been deeply engaged in the community for about 6 months. I love managing and growing high-performance teams, and scaled an organization from 8 people (1 team) to 25 people (3 teams). I take a people-oriented, supportive, coaching approach to management - this helps me find the win-win of happy employees who are learning and growing in their careers, and delivering amazing results. If someone reads this and is hiring for an operations or technology manager role in EA, please feel free to send me a message. My preferred cause areas are EA movement building, AI safety, and alternative proteins, but I'm open to other causes in order to gain experience and do good.
I also am piloting a pay-what-you-can leadership coaching program for current and aspiring EA managers. If you're interested, send me a message!
