Livestorm

Engineering Manager

• Own the sustainable delivery and technical excellence of a cross‑functional product squad.
• Partner with the Product Manager to turn strategy into predictable outcomes for customers and the business.
• Drive planning, sequencing, and execution for the squad; make trade‑offs explicit and time‑box discovery/validation.
• Remove blockers fast; coordinate dependencies across teams; hold crisp, data‑driven status updates.
• Establish and evolve pragmatic agile practices to maintain sustainable pace.
• Set the engineering bar (architecture, code health, testing, observability, security); perform code and design reviews; pair and contribute code when it materially de‑risks or accelerates.
• Guide architectural decisions; keep tech debt visible and deliberately managed with the PM.
• Co‑own squad strategy with the PM: clarify problem framing, success metrics, and prioritisation; balance discovery vs. delivery; instrument features and ensure learnings flow back into roadmap decisions.
• Coach and grow engineers through regular 1:1s, feedback, and growth plans; run fair, timely performance reviews; address under‑performance and run PIPs when needed.
• Hire bar‑raising talent; partner with recruiting; design and run structured interviews; ensure excellent onboarding.
• Foster an inclusive, psychologically safe environment; promote knowledge sharing and mentorship.
• Track and publish team metrics (delivery, quality, flow, impact) and use them for continuous improvement.
• Ensure compliance with security, privacy, and regulatory standards relevant to the squad’s domain.
