As the Engineering Manager, you will:

- Technical Mentorship & Code Quality: Raise the technical bar for the team by participating in high-level code reviews and architectural design sessions. While you won't be in the codebase daily, you will be responsible for ensuring the team adheres to modern best practices in performance, security, and scalability. You will likely read and review a lot of code, but write only outside of the critical path.

- Strategic Problem Solver: Navigate the project management Iron Triangle by balancing scope, time, and quality to deliver the best outcome for the business.
About You:
- 7+ years of Software Development experience, with at least 3 years in a formal leadership or management role within a Product Development organization.
- Technical Depth: You have a strong foundation in full-stack engineering patterns. You are able to code and can dive deep into technical and architectural discussions, even if you are no longer an individual contributor.
- B2C Product Focus: Deep experience building and scaling customer-facing products within high-growth, high-scale B2C environments.
- Architectural Intuition: You have experience shaping and guiding complex architectures, with a focus on system performance, scalability, and navigating zero-to-one product ambiguity.
- Effective Communicator: You have a proven ability to translate complex technical gaps into clear, actionable recommendations for cross-functional stakeholders.
- Mentor Mindset: You enjoy coaching engineers through technical hurdles and helping them grow into senior and staff-level roles.
