About the Role

We're hiring an Engineering Manager to lead the day-to-day of our engineering team. This is a pure people-management role - not a player-coach position. Your success is measured by your team's delivery and growth, not your own code output. You'll own work assignment, unblocking, and delivery tracking across in-house and partner engineers, act as the technical arm of our product team, and operate as the number two to our head of engineering.

Our Stack

 Languages: TypeScript, Python
 Databases: Postgres, ClickHouse
 Infrastructure: Azure, event-driven architecture
 Delivery: Linear, Kanban-style flow

Responsibilities

 Manage the day-to-day work of engineers across internal and partner team -assigning work, unblocking, and tracking delivery
 Own the ticket assignment process in Linear: route clear work directly, keep the queue stocked with fully scoped tickets, and escalate larger project fit to engineering leadership
 Act as the technical arm of the product team: take product direction from PMs, shape technical direction with engineers, and sign off before work begins
 Balance workloads to individual capacity and working styles, including engineers working across timezones
 Run 1:1s, give performance feedback, and build growth plans for your engineers
 Coordinate delivery across separate teams while managing shared workstreams like bug fixes
 Partner with engineering leadership on hiring, process, and team structure
 Champion spec-driven development and AI-assisted engineering practices across the team
 *The company reserves the right to add or change duties at any time.

Qualifications

 6+ years in software engineering, including 3+ years directly managing engineers
 A deliberate choice of the management track—you find your leverage in people, process, and clarity
 Experience managing distributed teams, including offshore or partner/vendor engineers across timezones
 Enough technical depth to pressure-test technical direction and sign off on scoping in a TypeScript/Python stack
 Fluency with modern delivery tooling (Linear or similar) and Kanban-style flow
 A strong track record partnering with product managers to turn requirements into well-scoped, buildable work
 Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools and how they change team workflows
 Excellent written communication—your tickets, feedback, and updates create clarity
 Bonus:
o Prop tech or real estate background
o Experience managing a mix of in-house and agency/vendor teams
o Prior experience as a tech lead before moving into management

Skills

 A people manager by choice - you get energy from unblocking others, not from being the hero contributor
 Calm and organized - nothing falls through the cracks on your watch
 High agency - you don't wait for permission or detailed instructions; you figure things out and drive forward
 Adaptive - you manage each engineer as an individual, adjusting for capacity, style, and timezone
