Engineering Manager

People Leadership:

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of engineers; provide continuous feedback, career development support, and performance management.
• Foster a culture of ownership, operational excellence, and continuous improvement.
• Hire, onboard, and retain top engineering talent; build a high-trust, high-performance team.

Delivery & Execution:

• Own end-to-end delivery: scoping, planning, execution, release readiness, and post-release measurement and iteration.
• Partner with Product to manage the team backlog, clarify requirements, define success metrics, and ensure the team is focused on the highest-value work.
• Drive healthy agile practices (grooming, estimation, prioritization) and continuously improve predictability and throughput.

Technical Oversight:

• Provide technical direction and oversight: system design, architecture decisions, design reviews, and non-functional requirements (performance, scalability, security).
• Maintain a strong technical skillset and contribute where appropriate (reviews, design, incident support, occasional hands-on contributions).
• Champion simplification and modernization by identifying tech debt, legacy risks, and opportunities to improve maintainability and system efficiency.
