Salary: $4,000 – $6,000 per month

About the Opportunity:

The Engineering Manager role focuses on leading engineering delivery, technical execution, and people development within an engineering squad. The person will be responsible for ensuring the team delivers high-quality products efficiently, maintaining engineering standards, making technical decisions, removing blockers and technical debt, and aligning engineering priorities with product and business goals. This is a hands-on technical leadership role, requiring someone with strong engineering experience who can both build and ship products and develop high-performing teams, while communicating technical matters effectively to non-technical stakeholders.


We Need You If You Answer YES to These:

Engineering Experience:
Do you have at least 8 years of engineering experience, including 4+ years in a team lead or engineering management role?

Hands-On Technical Leadership:
Have you personally built and shipped products, and are you comfortable getting involved in technical decisions rather than focusing solely on people management?

Team Development:
Do you enjoy coaching engineers, developing their technical capabilities, and building a team that can deliver independently?

Delivery & Execution:
Can you balance delivery speed, code quality, reliability, and maintainability while keeping engineering projects on track?

Problem Solving:
Are you comfortable identifying technical debt, resolving blockers, and addressing engineering risks before they affect delivery?

Communication & Collaboration:
Can you explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders and work closely with Product, QA, and project teams?


Key Responsibilities: Your Engineering Mission

Work closely with Product, QA, and project teams to align engineering priorities, manage squad capacity, and ensure technical execution supports business goals.

High-Performance Team Culture

Build a team environment that values accountability, continuous learning, collaboration, and fast, reliable execution.


Skills That Give You an Edge (Nice-to-Have)
