Work how you need

The best tech (laptops to create, headphones to flow, standing desks to stay healthy).

Open positions

Engineering Manager

Remote | Full-Time

Who we are

We are a fully remote team, open to hiring in the United States and Canada.

For more information about how our team thinks and operates, read our company Playbook.

Why are we hiring?

Our team is hiring Engineering Managers (EMs) to pair with junior engineers, work hand-in-hand with our Project Managers, and provide subject matter expertise to clients throughout the lifecycle of our engagements with them. EMs help their teams manage workloads, prioritize tickets, and work through bugs and blockers on a daily basis. This role is critical to our Engineering team and to the continued growth and success of Lightmatter.

More about the role

As an EM at Lightmatter, you'll work directly with our CTO, Design team, and other engineers on a variety of software projects covering different programming languages, frameworks, and application architectures. We treat EMs as half “lead developers” and half “people managers”. You’ll be supervising others while also doing some of the day to day work, which requires you to stay nimble and fluid. Generally, we build a team around an Engineering Manager: the EM communicates with clients, makes technical decisions, pairs with team members and reviews the teams pull requests. Think: less coding and more "everyone else is writing good code".

Typical client work includes building any of the following: web and mobile apps, APIs, integrations with third party tools, health-tech specific integrations, and digital transformation projects for enterprise clients.

What you’ll do for us

• Help us accurately scope client work from a technical perspective.
• Help clients avoid over-engineering solutions.
• Manage a “pod” of engineers (between 1-5 direct reports):
  • Enable their growth and success through mentorship, pairing, and offering development opportunities.
  • Motivate and coach through performance management, when needed.
  • Provide support through daily stand-ups and regular check-ins.
  • Help to unblock the team and solve technical problems.
• Participate in the hiring process for new Engineering talent.
• Champion a best-in-class onboarding experience for new talent on your team.
• Help your team ship code that works as expected, on schedule, and within budget.
• Spend some time writing code, code review, de-bugging, as well as staying current on software updates and best practices.

What you’ll need to be successful

• You have 5+ years working as a software engineer at another agency, a product-focused startup, or an enterprise company.
• You have a demonstrated history of seeking out teaching opportunities, coaching, and mentoring your peers.
• Previous experience leading a project from conception to completion.
• You have spent some time freelancing independently.
• You have zero ego with regards to your code, can both receive and offer feedback positively.
• You're a self-starter and know how to balance the technically correct and/or more elegant solution with what the client wants.
• You're not afraid to ship code!

What we’ll do for you

• Competitive salary & 401k plan.
• Hiring range: $140,000 to $160,000.
• Unlimited paid vacation and sick-leave.
• Paid parental leave.
• Exceptional healthcare coverage.
• Work remote or wherever you work best!
• The best tech.
• Flexible hours.
• Ongoing education because we like our people smart.
