Senior Manager, Engineering (821)

Responsibilities

• Lead 2–3 product engineering teams (including the core UI team), providing day-to-day management, coaching, mentoring, and performance support while maintaining a strong technical presence.
• Set technical direction for the UI platform: micro-frontend architecture, React/TypeScript standards, shell SDK interfaces, module contracts, and shared design-system/theming patterns.
• Drive engineering execution: sprint planning, technical prioritization, code reviews, and hands-on contributions to unblock delivery and improve reliability.
• Establish and evolve CI/CD for independently deployable front-end modules, including build pipelines, artifact management, automated testing, and safe rollout practices.
• Ensure reusable UI and service capabilities are well-designed and documented (including company-wide ‘skills files’/patterns), and guide integration with supporting backend services such as user management and authorization.
• Partner closely with Product Management to define roadmap, scope features, and deliver high-impact product outcomes.
• Define and maintain clear module contracts, API descriptors, and SDK interfaces to enable independent development across teams.
• Promote scalable integration patterns including event-driven communication and shared state approaches across modules and services.
• Drive engineering best practices across teams including coding standards, testing strategies, and development workflows (including AI-assisted tools where appropriate).

Qualifications

• 8+ years of software engineering experience with 3+ years leading and managing engineers (or equivalent combination of education and experience).
• Strong React 18+ expertise (hooks, Suspense, StrictMode, error boundaries, lazy loading) and modern TypeScript patterns.
• Deep experience with Webpack 5 and Module Federation or similar approaches to modular front-end architecture.
• Solid experience integrating or developing backend services, including API design and microservices-based architectures.
• Familiarity with event-driven communication patterns (pub/sub) and cross-module state management approaches.
• Experience implementing or working with authentication and authorization patterns (e.g., JWT, RBAC).
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern development practices including testing and code quality standards.
• Strong collaboration skills with product, design, and engineering teams, with the ability to balance technical decisions and delivery outcomes.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with containerization and Kubernetes or similar cloud-native deployment models.
• Strong understanding of UI architecture concepts such as design systems, theming, and responsive design.
• Experience with accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1) and building inclusive user experiences.
• Exposure to AI/LLM-powered UI experiences or developer productivity tools.
