Engineering Manager
FeedbackFruits, Amsterdam
The role
We're looking for an Engineering Manager with engineering depth, someone senior engineers respect on code and architecture, who has chosen to focus on growing people and still cares a lot about the product. You'd own how the squad works, set its technical standards and lead the way in how it uses AI, and you'd help raise the bar across the wider engineering department too. Our stack is Ruby on Rails and Ember.js, and experience with either is welcome but not required.
What you will do
- Co-own the backlog and roadmap with the Product Manager: challenge scope on user value, propose smaller first versions and turn product goals into technical plans
- Lead the squad's day-to-day delivery, from planning to unblocking, so engineers keep shipping
- Grow every engineer through regular 1:1s, direct feedback and a personal growth path in our Career Progression Framework, with a development plan for each of them every year
- Set the squad's technical direction and quality standards, and review code and architecture with enough depth to be genuinely useful while the team does the coding
