The New Products team at the New York Times is looking for an entrepreneurial technology manager to recruit and lead a development team responsible for exploring and prototyping new product ideas. As the technical lead of a prototyping team, you will be working closely with developers, designers, editors and product managers to create and test prototypes of new products.

You will be a part of the organization that launched NYT Now and NYT Cooking, both named Best apps of 2014 by Apple, and the popular website cooking.nytimes.com. We are a small, nimble team that works well together and cares as much about the product as the underlying technology.

The ideal candidate is someone who is comfortable improvising across a range of technologies and able to quickly turn concepts into reality and lead others to do the same. This is a player-coach role where you will get to help build prototypes and lead others.

Responsibilities:

- Work closely with a small cross-functional team to develop and test prototypes of new products
- Be able to translate everything from vague product ideas to detailed designs into buildable prototypes
- As often the only technical voice in the room, help the team to manage scope and focus on shipping.
- Keep up to date on technical innovations inside and outside the company which could contribute to new products

Requirements:
- A strong interest in exploring new products at a media company
- A demonstrated ability to work collaboratively as part of a multidisciplinary team
- Demonstrated experience with end-to-end ownership of web applications
- Ability to develop in a variety of server and client side web technologies
- Strong sense of ownership and ability to problem-solve independently
