Lead and mentor a small product development team building features for a core web app. Run 1:1s and engineering all-hands, coordinate projects, remove blockers, improve onboarding and documentation, collaborate with Product & Design, and support hiring to ensure efficient, customer-focused delivery as the product and customers scale.
We’re looking for an engineering manager who is inspired to mentor, grow, and help teams succeed, especially when the team is still small and nimble.

As we onboard bigger customers and continue to evolve our product, you’ll guide your team to execute with efficiency, and consistency.
