Engineering Manager

Engineering Manager

We’re looking for an experienced and driven Engineering Manager to assist leading our talented engineers. You’ll build and execute product strategy, ensure all projects are completed on time, and foster an inspiring environment that allows the team to do amazing work. You’ll work directly with Workshop’s Engineering leadership team to help foster an ambitious and optimistic engineering culture. The ideal candidate has a strong technical background and the ability to lead fast-paced teams. This role is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to make an immediate impact on a growing organization.

As Engineering Manager you will:

• Manage an established team of engineers building Workshop’s core features
• Foster a culture of innovation and continuous improvement on the engineering team
• Recruit, train, mentor, and support engineers in their roles at Workshop
• Improve team and feature processes and procedures by evaluating team operations and implementing changes 
• Explore feasibility of new projects by evaluating our existing tooling, competitive landscape, and customer needs
• Drive technical decision-making and ensure high-quality work
• Collaborate with product management to plan, prioritize, and execute projects
• Keep up to date on the latest industry technology and best practices

To be successful in this position, you’ll need:

• Minimum 1 year experience in leading or managing engineering teams
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• A strong technical background – you’ve previously built software in some form and have a practical approach to delivering value to customers
• A passion for great technology — you get excited when you hear about novel or interesting applications of software to business or living
• Deep understanding and knowledge of structuring development lifecycle processes — you have familiarity with agile methodologies, but also know when applying too much process does more harm than good
• The ability to walk the line between business and engineering – we don’t hesitate to respond to customer changes or to deprecate features that don’t provide value to customers

Compensation & Benefits:

• Highly competitive compensation
• Healthcare
• Stock options
• Unlimited vacation
