As a Senior Engineering Manager, you’ll report to the Head of Engineering and lead cross-functional delivery teams responsible for turning product vision into reliable, scalable software. You’ll partner closely with Product, Design, and Engineering leadership to continuously raise the bar on how we build and ship.
This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of people leadership, technical depth, and execution excellence.

- Drive predictable, high-quality delivery — help teams ship sustainably, on cadence, and with confidence.
- Partner cross-functionally — collaborate with Product Management, Design, Architecture, Security, and Quality Engineering from roadmap planning through delivery.
- Shape engineering processes — improve how we plan, build, track, and deliver as we scale both our product and organization.
- Guide technical decision-making — stay close enough to the work to support system design, incident response, and observability when needed.
- Build for scale — support distributed teams working across time zones, technologies, and stacks.
🎯 What Success Looks Like
- Teams feel empowered, accountable, and supported
- Software ships reliably and predictably
- Engineering processes evolve as the business grows
- Technical challenges are surfaced early and addressed thoughtfully
- Engineers grow — not just in output, but in skill and career trajectory
