Ask HN: What's expected from an engineering manager or director now?

I just joined a 30-person AI startup in the Bay Area as Director of Engineering. Two non-coding founders (CEO and CTO) and a flat team. We have 2 PMs, 20 engineers. Every engineer is senior or staff level. They use Claude Code and AI agents etc quite well. What is my job in an environment like this? According to the CTO, I'm to improve the velocity and productivity while also balancing quality. Also, are there any Bay Area meetups or peer groups where engineering leaders are actually talking about this specific setup?
