Spreedly is seeking a Software Engineering Manager who's ready to jump in and manage one or more teams of 4 to 7 direct reports.
You'll also bring your experience to the table and help us continue iterating on how we do engineering and engineering management.
We've made good progress in some areas - our hiring and onboarding processes being notable examples - but are regularly tweaking our processes and structure as we continue scaling the company from our current size of 130
to who knows how many multiples of that in the coming 4 to 5 years.
You may not yet have pure engineering management experience, but you should have a proven aptitude for technical leadership and be excited to join Spreedly to support and enable the people that build and maintain our product as we keep growing.
We bring the same pragmatic mentality to managing as we do to designing systems.
We are looking for someone who can come in and quickly become a part of those conversations, sharing their experiences and takeaways, to help us evolve our engineering management practice at Spreedly.
Responsibilities You will lead a variety of cross-functional technical teams, making sure team members are getting the feedback they need to do their jobs and improve at their craft You will represent your team to the rest of the organization, helping them understand the team's role and prioritize the set of things the team could be working on You will be performing the challenging work of management full-time from day one, and will not have critical path engineering responsibilities for any initiatives (but still need serious technical chops - see Requirements) You will be responsible for the technical quality and product cohesion of your team's work product and should be prepared to work with relevant stakeholders across the organization to ensure both meet expectations You will collaborate with existing engineering management (and engineers) as we continue to iterate on how Spreedly does engineering as an organization Requirements You have 3
years of technical leadership experience - we need someone already comfortable with the dynamics of technical teams and delivering/supporting a technical product.
This may take many forms, including non-technical management experience paired with several years of diverse technical experience, or technical team leadership experience without the human management aspect, etc.
As a manager, you lead with empathy, maturity, and candor You have real coding chops that allow you to support engineers of all levels as they make decisions about how we build Spreedly.
While coding will not be an expectation in this role, you will need to rely on your technical experience to manage and have credibility with fast-moving engineering teams.
It's not a litmus test, but if you weren't a developer in a past life this is probably going to be a stretch You should thrive in loosely structured environments.
We're getting bigger, but still find our top performers are those who take responsibility vs.
waiting for it to be assigned You should be comfortable thinking strategically about organizational and management topics.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
