- Permanent, full time

- Compensation
- Discussed at the first conversation
About the role
We do not have a management track that leads away from engineering. Most of this role is people and delivery, and the hands-on part is not ceremonial. You will be accountable for whether your engagements ship what was agreed, and for whether the people on them are getting better.
What you will do
- Own delivery for several concurrent client engagements.
- Run one-to-ones about growth rather than status, and write the honest performance conversation down.
- Hold the technical standard: code review, architecture input, and the decision to stop and fix something.
- Hire. You will be in the interviews for your own team.
- Escalate early. A project in trouble that reaches leadership late is a management failure.
What we need from you
- You have managed engineers and can describe someone you helped get significantly better.
- Recent hands-on experience. You can still read a pull request properly.
- Comfort with client contact, including the difficult conversations.
- A view on estimating that survives contact with a fixed price.
Useful but not required
- Agency or consultancy experience, where the client is not internal.
- You have turned a struggling project around and can say what you actually changed.
