About Very Very is a fully distributed technology firm led by expert problem-solvers who create efficient, scalable solutions that move commercial, industrial, and consumer products from pilot to production in record time. We believe that real innovation happens in the grind, working shoulder to shoulder with clients who are building the future. Our team thrives on that energy. When we’re not helping clients deliver business-critical outcomes, we’re refining our craft and celebrating what it means to do hard things well. We’ve built a collaborative, tight-knit culture that thrives in both remote and in-person settings. We’ve won numerous workplace awards over the years, including Great Place to Work certification and recognition from Parity.org as a Best Company for Women to Advance. Our clients include well-known brands like Vizio, Peloton, Clear, iHeart Radio, and Fellowes — all determined to leverage connected devices and AI to drive meaningful impact. Our job is simple: help them win. About this role The Engagement Lead is a distinct career track at Very — separate from engineering and program management — built around a single accountability: the outcome of the client engagement. PMs run the machine. Engagement Leads own the outcome. This is a client-facing, commercially-minded role. You will personally own 1–3 active client relationships at a time, ensuring that Very is delivering real business value, that engagements are healthy and profitable, and that clients are growing with us. You will operate at high billability (60–80%), meaning you are not overhead — you are contributing directly to the work while simultaneously holding the altitude of the overall engagement. You will sit at the intersection of client trust, technical delivery, and business development. The best Engagement Leads are builders who have learned to sell, or sellers who have learned to build — people who are as comfortable writing a Statement of Work as they are reviewing a sprint report.
