Successful candidates will join a cross functional team including product managers and designers working closely with the rest of our business to deliver working code that solves real problems for both internal and external customers. You will manage both the technical and the people side of your teams; being both a career mentor as well as a technical mentor for your developers. You will spend a majority of your time ensuring the technical excellence of your team, unblocking your team for maximum delivery, and communicating your team’s needs and progress to the rest of the organization.  As an engineering manager you are expected to be able to write and optimize code, as well as ensure that your developers can do the same. You'll work closely with a variety of people in the business to arrive at the best solution, immediately see the impact of your work, and get feedback directly from users. If you have a strong passion for solving problems with code, and want to work with exceptional colleagues in a high achievement environment, this role is a good fit for you.

• Work with Product Owners to flesh out business requirements and ensure that the team is solving the right problems to help the business
• Ensure that the team adheres to high standards and practices sustainable engineering
• Help your team grow from both a technical and career perspective.
• Follow an agile methodology for rapid, nimble delivery.

Who you are:

• You probably have a degree in a STEM subject, but we’re happy to work with people who perfected their craft via a different route.
• Experience working at a similar level in a mature Engineering team, and looking to take your career to the next level. We’re looking for people who have incredible potential.
• Technical expertise with Full stack: Experience working with at least one frontend framework, ideally React, as well as experience working on the backend systems. (We use Kotlin and a bit of Ruby.)
• Proven track record – You’ve made a demonstrable impact in your previous roles, standing out from your peers.
• Highly driven and proactive – you relentlessly and independently push through hurdles and drive towards excellent outcomes.
• Meticulous – you hold high standards and have an obsessive attention to detail.
