About The Position

We are seeking a seasoned Engineering Manager who remains a technologist at heart.

You should be someone who makes sound, high-stakes decisions quickly, acts as technical authority and understands that great software is built by people who truly care about the product’s mission.

Requirements

• An extensive background in senior-level Python back-end engineering. You should still feel at home in a codebase and be hands-on.
• Experience managing direct reports or mentoring engineering teams.
• The ability to make fast, reliable decisions based on experience and technical maturity.

Nice To Haves

• Hands-on experience with Django or FastAPI.
• A background in Infrastructure and DevOps (AWS, CI/CD, K8s).

Responsibilities

• Manage a high-performing squad of engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and professional growth.
• Leverage your deep Python expertise to guide architectural decisions and provide hands-on technical leadership on complex back-end challenges.
• Work closely with stakeholders to understand the "why" behind the "what," ensuring engineering efforts align with the broader business vision.
