The Job:
The engineering team at Mind Gym is only 6 months old. We have hired our first cohort of engineers and are building a greenfield platform that will transform the business. As our engineering manager you will be responsible for an equal mix of leadership and technical contribution. We develop with a mixture of Vue, Typescript, Elm and Node.js. For infrastructure we use AWS and Serverless techniques alongside a modern DevOps stack.
A typical day might include:
- Enablement of our engineers by spotting opportunities to help them accelerate
- Line management and mentoring of our engineering leads
- Facilitation of architectural discussions
- Reviewing pull requests
- Discussions that guide our technical roadmap (across debt, DevOps and quality improvements)
- Pairing and hands-on work that makes the most of your experience but doesn’t block the critical path
About You:
Essential
- A background as an individual contributor for at least 7 years
- Leading and managing people for at least 4 years
- You have built and retained excellent teams
- You know how which levers accelerate delivery with the “4 key metrics”
- Experience of accelerating / de-risking delivery with DevOps practices (TDD, CD pipelines, configuration management etc..)
- Diverse architectural experience (service based / data pipelines / multi-channel content)
- Expert in one part of the stack and proficient in the rest
- Critical thinking on when to build vs buy
- Cloud native in AWS or GCP
Desirable
- Experience of taking teams from start-up to scale-up
- Experience throughout the stack with Node, Typescript and Vue
- Knowledge of SRE practices for incident management & blame free post-mortems
- Your full stack extends to Lamba and Serverless
If this sounds like something you’d be great at, we’d love to hear from you.
