Senior Talent Partner @ Copper | Connecting Top Talent to Exceptional Opportunities

Copper is the client and project management platform purpose-built for professional services businesses. Think marketing and creative agencies, consultancies, media firms, and other project-based teams that run on relationships, not transactions.

These businesses don’t follow simple, linear sales cycles. Their work is complex, collaborative, and ongoing. They’re constantly moving between pitching new clients, managing active engagements, and delivering on tight timelines. Yet most CRMs ignore this reality - forcing sales and delivery teams into siloed tools that don’t talk to each other.

That’s the gap we’re closing. Copper helps service-based teams manage the entire customer journey in one beautifully designed, Google Workspace-native platform - from first email to final deliverable. With a shared view of contacts, deals, tasks, and projects, our customers eliminate duplicate work, reduce handoff issues, and create consistently excellent client experiences.

Thousands of professional services firms trust Copper to keep their client work on track and we’re just getting started. Backed by $100 million in funding and growing fast, we’re building the modern operating system for relationship-led businesses.

We are currently on the hunt for a seasoned Engineering Manager to join our Engineering Team. We are looking for an Engineering Manager who has worked in various types and sizes of SaaS organizations and has driven the maturing of younger engineering teams into a high-performing one. The successful candidate will play a crucial role in the growth of Copper. We are a fun, down-to-earth, rosy brand that likes to provide insightful, thought-provoking content to educate, inspire, and to help businesses build successful relationships with their customers.

What you’ll do:

• Lead a cross-functional engineering team focused on helping new CRM users onboard effectively and experience product value quickly.
• Drive team delivery and agile project management processes including clarifying scope, anticipating risks, and shipping rapidly and iteratively.
• Partner with Product and Design to align engineering outcomes with customer impact and business goals.
• Drive clarity of communication throughout the organization.
• Coach and develop your team through regular feedback and mentoring.
• Work with Technical Leads to evaluate architecture decisions and maintain a high technical bar.
• Champion a bias toward action, break down ambiguity, keep projects moving, and unblock teams when they’re stuck.

What you’ll have:

• 4+ years of engineering management experience, with a background as an Individual Contributor.
• Experience working in fast-paced SaaS environments.
• Proven ability to inspire and guide a team from defining direction to delivering impact.
• Strong execution mindset: adept at scoping, prioritizing, and driving projects to completion quickly.
• Experience working on Growth teams or in onboarding/activation domains.
• Technically credible and comfortable reviewing designs, asking sharp questions, and providing input on architectural decisions.
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional partners across Product, Design, Support, Success, and Marketing.
• Strong communication skills and a track record of creating clarity across teams and stakeholders.
• Comprehensive benefits and time-off/leave policies
• Unlimited vacation
• Flexible fully remote work hours
• Generous stock options
• Maternity/paternity top-up
• Monthly internet and cell phone allowance
