Software Engineering Manager
Nylon, Auckland +1
The role
Our engineering team is about to grow quickly. We're looking for our first Engineering Manager to lead the engineers building the Nylon product and to build the team around them.
You'll own product engineering for the Core Nylon experience: the research and answer experience, identity and billing, growth. You'll own line management, delivery and hiring for this group.
The team is small tody, with a handful of passionate engineers and a funded hiring plan for you to build out your team and populate new capability squads.
What you will do
- Managing the Nylon engineers: 1:1s, growth plans, performance and levelling against our six-level engineering framework
- Owning delivery, so squads ship predictably against a plan agreed with product and trade-offs are surfaced early
- Hiring a senior-heavy team, working with our Talent Lead on sourcing.
- Setting the engineering bar: code review, release quality, on-call, incident response and postmortems that change how we work
