ABOUT THE ROLE
We're hiring an Engineering Manager to help lead our engineering team as we scale.
In this role, you'll work closely with engineers on technical challenges while helping the team navigate ambiguity, make thoughtful decisions, and deliver with speed and quality. Rather than directing every solution, you'll facilitate productive technical discussions, build alignment, and create the conditions for our engineers to do their best work.
We're looking for someone who can think strategically, stay close enough to the technical work to understand trade-offs, ask good questions, and help guide technical decisions, while leading through influence rather than authority. You'll help the team balance long-term technical investments with near-term execution, maintain a high bar for engineering quality, and create the clarity and alignment that enables engineers to move quickly without sacrificing thoughtful decision-making.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Lead and grow a high-performing team of engineers by building a culture of trust, ownership, and autonomy where people can do their best work, make decisions, and continue to develop.
- Partner closely with engineering and go-to-market stakeholders to ensure the team is solving the right problems - not just building the right solutions.
- Stay engaged with technical decisions, helping the team reason through architecture, trade-offs, and complexity, without needing to make every decision yourself.
- Improve the process of how we work, identifying bottlenecks, refining processes, and automating away toil.
- Bring clarity to ambiguous problems by helping the team align on priorities, make thoughtful decisions, and maintain strong execution.
- Balance long-term technical investments with near-term business needs, ensuring the team delivers sustainable, high-quality outcomes.
- Foster a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement where engineers are empowered to lead and make decisions.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
- Experience leading engineering teams in a fast-moving environment where priorities and solutions are not always clearly defined.
- Instinct to step toward ambiguous or unowned problems, including the unglamorous seams between teams.
- Strong technical judgment and the ability to engage deeply in architectural discussions, understand trade-offs, and guide technical decisions.
- Comfort working in a TypeScript/JavaScript ecosystem is a plus, though we value strong engineering fundamentals over experience with a specific language or framework.
- Strong product sense: able to talk directly to customers, absorb inputs from many sources, and determine how a product should work.
