Engineering Manager

• You have at least one significant prior experience managing a full-stack engineering squad. You’re comfortable:

  • Building, running and continuously iterating on squad rituals that fit your squad’s context and foster efficiency.
  • Collaborating with cross-functional counterparts: PM, Product Designer, Customer Success.
  • Supporting and coaching your IC direct reports, and giving them regular feedback to help them grow in alignment with wider company goals.
  • Managing in both French and English, in a remote context.

• You’re a people-first servant leader. You understand that high performance is only possible in an empowered and well-cared-for team.

• You’re comfortable being hands-on in a full-stack context, through code and design document review or code contributions outside of the team’s critical path.

• You’re product-minded: not content with executing on pre-defined tasks and roadmap, you’re directly in touch with business challenges and customer pains, and use this to inform your focuses, prioritization calls, and the direction you provide your team.

Nice to have

• You have prior experience with the technologies in our stack.

• You have prior experience building teams from scratch, from setting initial rituals to federating a newly created team around its mission.
