Engineering Manager

• Provide feedback on designs, product features, and technical specifications to help team members identify ways to improve quality. Coach IC’s to reach the right outcomes, so that consistent improvements are made
• Develop engineers capable of managing large, ambiguous projects independently and successfully, with minimal oversight. They will still request help when necessary, but they will lead the process
• Conduct regular 1:1’s and annual performance and development reviews; set 6-month individual goals and expectations for team members
• Maintain high standards for engineering and product development, while not shying away from providing feedback to team members (both praise and improvements)
• Communicate effectively changes at the team and organization level, in addition to successfully conveying the company vision and how it translates to our development roadmap
• Maintain awareness and accountability of your teams domain, and effectively work with cross functional team members (Engineering, Business, PgM’s, etc.) through successful full cycle product and feature launches
• Ensure technical design and engineering documentation remains current, as well as quarterly release notes
• Ensure engineering deadlines are met. Be proactive in communicating to the appropriate stakeholders any changes to the timeline and why
• Stay technical - Provide design and code reviews, and, when time permits, write some yourself. This could take the shape of enhanced test coverage, automation, or other areas where utilizing your technical expertise enhances design and engineering processes at Swoop
