Your Role in the Bigger Picture: As an Engineering Manager you will directly lead our entire engineering function across web, mobile, and backend teams. This is not a role for people who just manage resources-it's for someone who obsesses over delivery hygiene, team accountability, technical depth, and cross-team velocity. You'll work closely with the Founder to set the culture, cadence, and standards for engineering excellence.

What You will do:

? Drive delivery metrics - velocity, code quality, tech debt management, release cadences, and rollout stability.

? Review and continuously improve internal processes to ensure consistent client satisfaction and engineering throughput.

? Bring clarity in chaos by implementing lean but effective processes for sprint planning, QA, and release management.

? Build and scale a high-performance engineering culture rooted in ownership, trust, and rapid delivery.

? Coach leads to drive deep accountability, proactive problem-solving, and cross-functional thinking.

? Help retain top talent while identifying leadership potential within the team.

? Ensure architectural alignment and quality across multiple teams and platforms.

? Make sound decisions in choosing between building from scratch vs reusing existing solutions.

? Be hands-on when needed-while this is not an IC role, strong tech judgment is non-negotiable.

Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

The Experience That Sets You Apart: 1012 years of total experience, with at least 3+ years in engineering leadership roles managing 50+ engineers

? Strong grasp of full-stack commerce systems - experience in Shopify ecosystem is a big plus.

? Hands-on understanding of Node.js, modern JavaScript frameworks (React, React Native), and scalable backend practices.

? Proven ability to scale teams, systems, and processes rapidly without compromising quality.

? High ownership mindset: You don't wait for directions, you seek clarity and drive outcomes.

? Strong communication skills and executive presence - someone who can talk to both developers and founders with clarity.

? A builder's mindset: loves moving fast, optimizing systems, and making things better continuously.
