As the Engineering Manager for the Menace Platform group, you will lead a high-performing team that leverages cutting-edge technologies to deliver complex, high-impact software systems. You will be responsible for building the team's culture, driving execution, and ensuring software quality and mission success. You'll partner with cross-functional leadership-including seasoned engineers and product managers-to balance rapid delivery with robust, scalable architecture, always anchoring decisions in the realities of connected warfare. A Note on This Role: This is an Engineering Manager role focused on people, process, and project leadership-not a technical architect position. While technical excellence remains a priority, your primary emphasis will be on team development, operational execution, and stakeholder management. Your technical leads and senior engineers will drive system design and implementation, while you cultivate an environment where they and the entire team excel.

  • Manage and grow a team of 10-15 engineers, fostering a high-performance, high-integrity culture focused on mission-critical delivery and rapid iteration.
  • Collaborate closely with product, mission systems, and technical leadership to define team objectives, prioritize work streams, and align with broader Connected Warfare initiatives.
  • Ensure the timely and reliable delivery of complex software projects by removing impediments, providing the necessary resources, and promoting agile methodologies.
  • Serve as the primary conduit between your team and senior leadership, communicating status updates, managing expectations, and advocating for your team's needs.
  • Champion best practices in software design, code reviews, testing, and CI/CD processes to ensure robust, scalable, and maintainable systems that are mission-ready.
  • Work closely with technical peers and other teams to support system integration, resolve technical challenges, and continuously improve operational workflows.
  • Invest in the professional growth of your team through coaching, feedback, and structured career development plans. Cultivate a 'whatever it takes' mindset and promote extreme ownership.
  • Occasionally travel (up to 10% of the time) to work alongside teammates and observe systems in real-world operational settings, ensuring that software solutions address actual field challenges.
  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineering manager, with a proven record of building and leading high-performing teams.
  • 8+ years of hands-on software development experience, demonstrating a strong technical foundation in distributed systems, networked applications, or related fields.
  • Successful track record of delivering complex software projects under tight deadlines while managing stakeholder relationships in a matrixed organization.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the ability to inspire and develop talented engineers.
  • Expertise in agile development methodologies and process improvement.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • Experience managing teams in mission-critical domains such as command and control, robotics, or defense applications.
  • Familiarity with modern DevOps and CI/CD practices.
  • Background in developing software for distributed systems and connected ecosystems.
  • Experience working within or closely with multi-domain operation teams.
  • A deep understanding of networking, security, and system integration challenges in high-stakes environments.
