The role

We're hiring an Engineering Manager to lead two cross-functional teams, 11 engineers in total. It's a fully remote position on a sharp, experienced, and motivated team, where you'll be empowered to lead with purpose, build for scale, and grow engineering excellence.

You’ll lead the delivery, optimize team performance, and foster a culture of ownership, quality, and collaboration.

If you're a strategic thinker who still loves to stay close to technology, we want to hear from you.

What you will do

• Lead and inspire two cross-functional engineering teams to deliver high-impact work with quality and speed

• Set and drive the technical direction in close partnership with strong Technical Leads

• Hire, develop, and retain top engineering talent – you're a coach and enabler, not just a manager

• Define and refine team processes for high-quality outcomes, efficient delivery, and continuous improvement

• Build realistic roadmaps with Product Managers and keep backlogs well-prioritized and aligned

• Plan and manage capacity, resources, and risk – balancing delivery with innovation

• Proactively surface bottlenecks and delivery risks early, and act on them before they become blockers

• Be the bridge between engineering and business, keeping stakeholders aligned and informed

• Explore how AI can raise both product value and team efficiency

What you bring

• A hands-on technical background: we're stack-agnostic, so strong Backend, Frontend, or mobile experience all qualify

• People management experience: growing team members and managing performance

• Project management strength: organizing work, communicating with stakeholders, analyzing risk, and solving problems before they escalate

• High-level English (B2+): essential for day-to-day work with our English-speaking teams and Product Managers

• Deep understanding of Agile, Scrum, and the software development lifecycle

• A track record in requirements analysis and clear technical documentation

• A collaborative mindset and the ability to rally a team around a shared vision

Nice to have

• Experience building AI-powered features (we're keen to use AI to work smarter)

• Familiarity with parts of our stack: .Net, C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, Angular, AWS, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL

• Experience with security best practices and B2B product development
