About the role:
Engineering Manager

You have a strong software engineering background, with an interest towards optimization. You demonstrate bias for action to get the right things done and engage thoughtfully with customers and stakeholders to understand their needs. You show excellent judgment in establishing priorities, and can successfully manage implementation in an agile environment. We move fast and work closely together on small teams to solve big problems.You lead so that your engineers are able to execute independently. You provide context and visibility into the reasons behind decisions made. You stay abreast of relevant development and innovation occurring both inside and outside the company and use that knowledge to inspire big ideas. You trust your team to innovate and deliver, verifying that they are achieving intended outcomes. You develop closed-loop mechanisms that enable you to quickly identify when projects are at risk and then act decisively to get them back on track. You ask the hard questions (Q. Where do we bottleneck the business? Should this software continue to exist?). You are able to decompose complex problems into straight-forward solutions. You consistently bring strong, data-driven business, and technical judgment to decisions. You recognize when designs/solutions require technical guidance from Principal Engineers. You help make trade-offs and overcome difficult obstacles. You escalate appropriately, communicating any serious risks to your management and senior stakeholders. Positive or negative, you own the results. You visibly recognize success by giving credit to engineers, managers, TPM/PMs, and any others who contributed.
