A fast-growing, well-funded consumer marketplace company reimagining a large, fragmented legacy industry — seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a cross-functional web team at the center of its growth engine.
The Opportunity
This company is building the technology backbone for a new generation of independent entrepreneurs entering a large, traditionally offline industry — combining a modern platform, data, and community to help thousands of people build real businesses on top of it. Backed by top-tier venture investors and recognized among the most innovative companies in its category, the company has scaled quickly while maintaining a tight, high-caliber engineering culture.
We're looking for an Engineering Manager to own a fast-moving web platform team responsible for the digital front door of the business: a flexible content management system, AI-assisted landing page generation, design system foundations, and site performance at scale. This is a high-visibility role that sits at the intersection of product, design, and growth — directly shaping how the company acquires and retains the entrepreneurs who rely on its platform.
If you love frontend systems, web performance, and building the tools that let a whole marketplace scale, this is a rare chance to lead that work end to end.
What You'll Do
- Lead day-to-day execution of a cross-functional sprint team, setting clear priorities and sustainable delivery practices
- Partner closely with product, design, and growth leaders to solve for acquisition, onboarding, and web-based workflow challenges
- Drive development of new platform capabilities while continuously improving the CMS, landing page tooling, design system, and performance infrastructure
- Provide hands-on technical leadership — engaging with architecture and implementation details to guide sound technical decisions
- Coach and grow engineers through regular feedback, mentorship, and career development
- Build a collaborative, inclusive team culture within a diverse, high-performing engineering org
Requirements
What You Bring
- 4+ years in engineering management with a track record of successful delivery and team growth
- 8+ years building web systems
- Strong technical judgment — comfortable making architectural calls, managing technical debt, and setting engineering standards
- Excellent project management skills: breaking down complex work, anticipating risk, delivering consistently
- Clear communicator who can translate technical concepts across stakeholders and run smooth, low-drama launches
- Recruiting experience — you know how to evaluate engineering talent and sell candidates on a mission
- A collaborative, humble leadership style with genuine openness to feedback
- Entrepreneurial comfort with ambiguity and pace typical of an early-to-mid-stage startup
- First-principles thinker who knows when to use established patterns versus build something bespoke
