Software Engineering Manager
Spellbook, St. John's
The role
We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a small team building AI products for legal professionals. This is a technical leadership role with responsibility for product outcomes, engineering quality, and team performance.
You’ll work closely with product and design, stay involved in architecture and implementation, and help the team make good decisions under uncertainty. You’ll also determine how coding agents and automation should change the way we develop software, based on what improves results in practice.
The role includes managing and developing engineers, but it is not primarily about process or coordination. We’re looking for someone who can increase the team’s output and ambition through clear direction, sound judgment, strong technical work, and effective use of AI.
What you will do
- Work with product, design, and customer-facing teams to identify important customer problems and decide what to build.
- Develop a strong understanding of how legal professionals use Spellbook through customer conversations, product data, and direct observation.
