Job description
We're seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a high-performing team of 5–8 engineers working on our core platform. You'll be a strong technical partner and people leader who can navigate the balance between shipping product and investing in engineering excellence. This role is for someone who genuinely cares about growing engineers, maintaining team health, and building systems that scale alongside the business.
What you'll do
- Lead, mentor, and grow a team of 5–8 full-stack engineers through regular 1:1s, feedback, and tailored development plans.
- Drive technical roadmap alignment with engineering leadership and product management, negotiating scope and timelines effectively.
- Facilitate clear team processes including sprint planning, retrospectives, design reviews, and cross-team coordination.
- Own hiring: define headcount plans, work with recruiting, interview candidates, and close strong engineers to join the team.
- Maintain a high engineering quality bar through code review standards, architectural guidelines, and incident management practices.
What we're looking for
- At least 2 years of people management experience leading engineering teams, with demonstrated retention and team health outcomes.
- Strong technical background — you can review code, contribute to architectural decisions, and credibly mentor senior ICs.
- Experience driving delivery on complex, cross-team projects with multiple stakeholders and competing priorities.
- Track record of hiring and building diverse, high-performing teams in competitive markets.
- Excellent communication skills — you write clearly, give direct feedback, and can adapt your style to different audiences.
We offer competitive manager-level compensation, meaningful equity, comprehensive benefits, a generous L&D budget for management and leadership development, and access to executive coaching. Engineering managers at our company are true partners in shaping both the team and the technical direction.
