Job Snapshot

We are looking for a seasoned Senior Engineering Manager (7–11 years of experience) to lead, scale, and inspire high-performing engineering teams. You will be responsible for the delivery of mission-critical products while fostering a culture of technical excellence and high-agency performance.

This is a core engineering leadership role that sits at the intersection of technical strategy and operational execution. While you will lead a broad range of engineering initiatives, you will also oversee key AI-integrated projects, requiring a solid understanding of how to manage the unique lifecycles of AI-based features. Furthermore, you will be expected to champion AI-powered optimization of our internal engineering processes to drive team velocity.

This role is for you if:

  • You believe that a high-performing team is built on trust, high agency, and the removal of administrative friction.
  • You are an engineer at heart who can still go deep on architectural trade-offs but chooses to scale your impact through others.
  • You thrive on the challenge of implementing solutions at scale while maintaining a positive, growth-oriented team vibe.
  • You have a "Product Mindset" and realize that the best code is the code that solves a real customer problem.

  • Tech stack you will get exposure to: GoLang, Java, Python, NodeJS, Serverless Technologies (AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions), Kafka.
  • What’s in it for you?

  • Execution & Delivery: Own the end-to-end delivery of mission-critical products, ensuring team commitments are met with high velocity and quality.
  • Strategic Alignment: Partner with Product and Business to define roadmaps and translate customer needs, including AI-integrated features, into actionable engineering plans.
  • High-Performance Leadership: Hire, mentor, and develop a diverse team of engineers, fostering a culture of high agency, growth, and collective success.
  • Technical Stewardship: Collaborate with Tech Leads and Architects to solve complex problems, influence design discussions, and drive long-term architectural planning.
  • Data & Innovation: Develop robust strategies for effective data engineering and scalable system design to support both core features and AI initiatives.
  • Operational Excellence: Drive engineering best practices, ensuring technical debt is managed and systems are built for long-term reliability.
  • Process Optimization: Continuously evaluate and implement AI-powered tools (e.g., LLM-based coding assistants, automated documentation etc.) to streamline internal workflows and boost team productivity.
  • Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
  • 7-11 years of experience in software engineering. 
  • 2-4 years of experience in leading engineering teams.
  • Strong experience in Agile software development processes such as Scrum and Kanban.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to build strong relationships with people and drive them towards a common goal.
  • Demonstrated leadership in a cross-functional, highly collaborative environment.
  • Demonstrated focus on continuous improvement of systems, software, and processes through data analysis and metrics.
