We are seeking a strategic Engineering Manager to lead both vision and execution for our client.  Responsible for driving high-performing engineering teams, enabling technical excellence, and delivering high-impact products and platforms.

  •  Lead continuous improvement initiatives across the engineering organization. 
  •  Optimize team structures, resource allocations, and processes for scale.

Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Collaboration
 
  •  Act as a senior partner to Product, Design, Data, Security, and Infrastructure teams. 
  •  Communicate technical decisions, trade-offs, and risks clearly to executive leadership. 
  •  Ensure engineering alignment with organizational goals and compliance requirements. 
  •  Additional duties and responsibilities may be reasonably assigned from time to time as operational needs evolve.  
  •  Periodically work outside standard business hours, such as during infrastructure upgrades and/or releases.
 
Required Qualifications of the Engineering Manager:
  •  8+ years of engineering experience
  •  Proven track record scaling engineering teams and delivering complex, high-impact software systems. 
  •  Strong technical foundation in software architecture, cloud technologies, and modern development practices.
