Director Mobile Engineering Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are looking for a seasoned Senior Engineering Manager to lead a web and mobile engineering team responsible for delivering key customer experiences. This role is ideal for a leader who combines strong people management, deep customer empathy, product partnership, and technical judgment, including curiosity and excitement about the possibilities of AI in software development.

The best person for this role will be highly engaged in the customer problems we are solving. They will bring a practical understanding of customer-facing software and help translate customer and business goals into strong technical execution. They will be an active partner with Product, Design, and Quality leaders to help clarify trade-offs and guide the team toward solutions that are scalable, reliable, measurable, and valuable to customers.

This leader will raise the technical bar for the team by staying close to the codebase through code reviews and occasional direct contribution, by engaging knowledgeably with engineers on architecture and long-term platform health, and by setting ambitious targets for performance, quality, and developer productivity. They will coach engineers across a range of experience levels, create clarity in ambiguous situations, and build a high-performing team culture grounded in ownership, learning, collaboration, and strong execution. They will not simply follow AI trends, but will help the team thoughtfully evaluate and adopt tools and practices that make engineering more effective.
