Job Summary:

Our engineering organization has tripled in size over a short period, and we are seeking an Engineering Manager to provide the close, day-to-day leadership our engineers need as we scale. This role directly manages a team within one of our core areas — application scaling and delivery, new product development powered by cutting-edge AI and LLM methodologies, or our core platform — reporting into a Director of Engineering.

The Manager will be hands-on with both people and technical work: running performance and growth conversations for their direct reports while staying close enough to the day-to-day engineering to review designs, unblock the team, and weigh in on key decisions. This role executes against the roadmap set by their Director, translating priorities into clear plans for their team.

We are looking for a people leader with direct, hands-on management experience — someone who has grown and led a small engineering team and is ready to keep building on that foundation.

Key Responsibilities:

- Directly manage a team of engineers, typically 5–6 direct reports, with full ownership of day-to-day people leadership
- Conduct performance reviews, resolve conflict, and support career progression and growth for each member of your team
- Partner with your Director of Engineering to translate roadmap priorities into clear, executable plans for your team
- Stay hands-on with the technical work as needed — reviewing designs, unblocking engineers, and weighing in on key technical decisions
- Recruit, hire, and onboard new engineers as the team continues to grow
- Foster a strong team culture and clear channels for feedback, especially as the broader organization scales
- Support modernization of the platform to keep pace with the scaling application layer
- Apply modern LLM methodologies and applied AI techniques to help solve some of the hardest, highest-impact problems in healthcare
- Support new product initiatives from concept through production deployment
- Help drive process and delivery rigor as the applications org matures

Required Qualifications:

- 8+ years of engineering experience, including 2+ years of direct experience as a people manager
- Track record of growing or leading a small engineering team, ideally from a handful of engineers toward 5–10 people
- Demonstrated people management fundamentals: performance management, conflict resolution, and career development
- Strong technical foundation with the ability to engage credibly in system design and architecture discussions
- Prior technical lead engineering experience in backend distributed systems, building out microservices, rest APIs, and AI/ML.
- Experience shipping and supporting applications in production
- Comfort operating in a fast-growing, fast-changing engineering organization

Desirable Skills:

- Has led engineering teams in both mature, at-scale environments and early-stage settings where you had to build process and infrastructure from the ground up
- Applied AI/ML or LLM experience, particularly for teams focused on new product development
- Prior experience in platform, foundational, or distributed systems engineering
- Experience in a healthcare-related business (not required, but a plus)
- Familiarity with value-based or outcomes-based contract environments
