About The Position

Omada Health is hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to own a significant piece of Omada's Member-facing surface. This role involves owning what gets built, in what order, and how the people building it grow. A squad owns problems from prototype to production, including maintenance and on-call rotation. At this level, the manager owns more than one squad, requiring difficult decisions about capacity allocation. The role requires staying technical, being involved in the codebase and agent workflows to review architecture, identify weak designs, and assist in incidents. Direct management focuses on shipping production work off the critical path, while managing through others focuses on the growth of those individuals. The role partners with Product Strategists who own the 'what' and 'why' of what gets built, while the Engineering Manager owns the 'can it be delivered,' 'at what cost,' and 'by when,' influencing the roadmap rather than just responding to it.

Requirements

8+ years in software engineering, including 4+ years managing engineers directly.
Experience developing another leader (a manager who reported to you, or an engineer you grew into a tech lead or EM role with real accountability).
A track record shipping mission-critical software to production and managing it post-launch.
Experience owning prioritization and estimation for a team, including saying no and explaining why.
Experience giving direct developmental feedback and managing someone through underperformance with support.
Currently shipping, or recently shipping, production code in at least one layer of the stack (backend (Ruby, Python, ...), web frontends (React), iOS, or Android).
Ability to follow conversations in other layers of the stack and critically review architecture decisions.
Comfort with an expert-generalist team model.
Hands-on experience directing AI agents through real-world production changes.
A considered view on where AI agents help and where they produce rework.
Understanding of CI/CD, logging, monitoring, and telemetry at a level where you can assess operational readiness.
Excellent written communication skills.
