Software Engineering Manager

 

Description:

As a Software Engineering Manager, you will sit at the intersection of high level strategy and hands on technical execution. You will lead a chapter of talented engineers, ensuring they have the technical direction, professional mentorship, and operational framework to deliver.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership & Architecture: Act as the technical anchor for your area, providing guidance on .NET/C++ architecture and AWS cloud-native patterns.
 

  • Conduct deep dive code reviews and architectural audits to ensure scalability, security, and maintainability.
  • Bridge the gap between business requirements and technical implementation.
     

Strategic Execution: Translate corporate strategic pillars into actionable engineering roadmaps.
 

  • Define and evolve "Software Factory" standards, standardizing CI/CD, testing automation, and deployment workflows.
     

People & Performance: Own the full lifecycle of your team: hiring, onboarding, career mapping, and performance management.
 

  • Foster a culture of accountability and psychological safety where engineers are motivated to reach their peak potential.
     

Operational Excellence: Utilize SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) to coordinate complex deliverables across multiple teams.
 

  • Identify skill gaps within the organization and implement training or hiring strategies to close them.
     

Required Skills & Experience

Technical Mastery: 10+ years in software design and development, with recent, deep expertise in .NET and/or C++.
 

  • Hands on experience architecting and deploying services in AWS.
  • Strong grasp of modern front-end technologies to lead full-stack initiatives.
     

Leadership Provenance: 3+ years of formal people management experience (managing 5+ developers).
 

  • Experience working within a SAFe or large-scale Agile environment.
     

Consensus Builder: Ability to influence technical direction across teams without relying solely on "manager" authority.

Constructive Critic: Expert at giving (and receiving) feedback that levels up the team.

Customer-Centric: You build for the user, not just for the sake of the code.
