Engineering Manager

Job Details

The Role:

Senior, hands-on engineering leader in our R&D Portal organization, reporting to the VP of Engineering. Application Tech Leads on the team report into this role. This is a player-coach position — you own performance, growth, retention, and delivery, and you stay deep in the code: taking on the hardest problems, shipping production code, reviewing PRs, pairing, and running training. This is an AI-first engineering organization; you set the bar by example for high-quality AI-assisted engineering and the guardrails around it.

 The Work - 

• Lead and grow the team — directly manage Application Tech Leads and Senior Developers; run 1:1s, performance, and career planning; coach Tech Leads into stronger leaders.

• Stay hands-on — personally own the hardest, highest-risk problems; review PRs across the team; pair with engineers; run technical training and architecture reviews.

• Drive cross-geography delivery — partner with Tech Leads in other geographies; own sprint commitments, code-review SLAs, on-call rotations, and incident response. Coach and grow matrixed engineers (those who report functionally to leads in other geographies) the same as direct reports.

• Lead AI-led engineering — set the bar by example for AI-assisted PR quality; define guardrails for AI-generated code (review, testing, security, IP); measure adoption and impact; run upskilling on prompt engineering and agentic workflows.

• Architecture & quality — act as a credible architecture partner across pods; drive operational rigor (healthy CI, fast PR turnaround, low defect rate).

• Security & compliance — protect client data and uphold Apex Corporate Security Standards across the team.

The Must-Haves - 

• Four-year college degree in Computer Science, IT, Engineering, or related discipline.

• Extensive (10+ years) experience in software development with strong .NET / C# — and still actively writing production code today.

• Multiple years of direct people-management experience of engineers, including managing Tech Leads or Senior Engineers who themselves had reports. Direct people-management experience is required — Tech Lead experience alone will not qualify.

• Deep experience in application, database, and middle-tier design — .NET Core, MVC, REST, LINQ, Entity Framework, SQL Server (incl. stored procedures and SSRS).

• Track record of personally solving hard technical problems — production incidents, complex refactors, performance and scaling work.

• Demonstrable experience driving AI-assisted engineering practices in a team — with concrete examples of workflows changed, tools rolled out, and measurable outcomes.

• Comfortable with cross-time-zone delivery and sustained US-overlap working hours; strong written and spoken English.

Preferred

• React, microservices, Docker, and Kubernetes.

• Hands-on with AI coding agents beyond autocomplete — agent workflows, evaluation pipelines, prompt design, or custom tooling.

• B2B SaaS, procure-to-pay, supplier management, or adjacent enterprise domains.
