We’re looking for our first dedicated Engineering Manager to help lead teams in pursuit of our ambitious product roadmap. We're driven by the desire to deliver the best creative software experience for our global community. You’ll have deep technical experience as well as ability in progressive people management. You'll guide a small team of engineers to develop and ship mission critical features, solve complex technical problems, define the parameters of our projects, improve overall development efficiency and nurture our internal engineering talent.
The role
This is a critical role in which you'll make an impact on both the code base as well as from the perspective of people management. Your experiences will allow you to make contributions as an individual contributor while also leading, managing and guiding junior engineers as an engineering stakeholder.
The role sits within our product development team, and you’ll report to Michael Shaw, our CTO. You'll work closely with the engineering team, the executive and members of other departments to align engineering with other critical business functions.
Your work will provide additional structure and certainty to the development process and relieve the Executive member of the engineering team of people management functions, allowing them to focus on both executive and development duties.
What you'll do
- Lead, coordinate and align diverse engineering functions
- Deliver feedback and take part in reviews and performance management
- Develop and maintain relationships with our external partners and relevant third parties
- Hands-on engineering - We need an Engineering Manager that enjoys coding and wants to keep their engineering skills sharp
- Support interdepartmental cooperation in relation to product and feature release as well as ongoing updates and patches
- Work directly with team leads and the executive to ensure that our product departments, including product, quality assurance, testing, and R&D functions are aligned and moving in the same direction with clear communication, leadership and goals
- Create and oversee project timelines and milestones with the view to improve sustainability and efficiency in our development process
Skills
- Emotional intelligence and a calm, self-assured leadership style. You’ll have a demonstrated ability to manage and build diverse teams. Your approach to leadership and management will build consensus and understanding. You’ll be able to communicate technical information to non-technical employees and stakeholders. You’ll motivate, inspire and support your colleagues to produce the best work of their lives.
- Experience as an Engineering Manager in a technology, product or creative company. You’ll have had experience in engineering at a senior level and/or people management experience in a tech or start-up environment. You bring an organised, methodical and detail-oriented approach to your work which provides structure and promotes confidence in those you work with. Your work will draw the best out of each individual contributor in a way which promotes both individual success and engagement as well as team productivity.
- Deep hands-on engineering experience in relation to UI work or development of custom, in-house rendering technology. Your breadth of experience and depth of technical foundations give you a creative and strategic approach to product development and the ability to respond effectively to unique and challenging technical problems. Your experience could be in low-level engine/rendering development or UI/UX work closer to the user.
