Job description

About Beanfield

We don’t just build networks, we build communities. From our roots in Liberty Village to our growing footprint across Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver, Beanfield has spent 35+ years connecting people through a robust, independently owned fibre-optic network.

With 500+ employees and an entrepreneurial mindset, we move fast, think creatively, and stay connected to the people who make Beanfield what it is. If you thrive in a collaborative, high-impact environment where your work matters, you will feel right at home.

Our headquarters is located in Toronto’s super-hip Liberty Village, surrounded by great coffee, food, energy, and creativity—making it a great place to collaborate in person.

Our Values

We Are Challengers

We lead the way. We disrupt the industry by thinking differently, moving quickly, and taking ownership. We operate with a startup mentality and believe in building and investing in our own infrastructure, and our people.

We Are United

We operate as one team. Collaboration is core to how we work, and every idea matters. We believe strong partnerships and shared ownership lead to better outcomes.

We Care

We care deeply about our employees, partners, customers, and communities. We build trust through open communication, thoughtful decisions, and a relentless focus on our brand and customer experience.

The Role

We are seeking a Manager, Delivery to lead a software engineering team focused on Python development. The Manager will be responsible for translating broader functional goals into a clear team-level strategy, defining how the team measures success over the next 6-12 months. The Manager must balance ‘keeping the lights on’ with delivering new features, ensuring the team executes on its roadmap with high quality and predictability.

This role holds formal authority for the operational health, hiring, and performance management of the team. While this is a management role, the incumbent expected to maintain strong technical credibility. You will not write code daily, but you must possess the deep practical understanding of Python and architecture necessary to review designs, challenge technical trade-offs, and ensure your team builds robust, scalable solutions.

What You’ll Do

Team Execution & Delivery

• Roadmap Execution: Work within a defined budget and headcount to execute on a roadmap set by leadership. Ensure the team delivers on project commitments over multiple quarters.
• Operational Health: Accountable for the team's operational metrics (e.g., uptime, bug counts) and removing obstacles that block daily progress.
• Resource Management: Manage tactical resource conflicts within the team to ensure priorities are met.

Technical Oversight

• Design Review: Effectively review architectural designs and code (Python/Django/Pyramid), asking insightful questions about technical trade-offs without needing to be the primary coder.
• Quality Assurance: Ensure the team adheres to sound engineering principles and builds solutions that are robust and scalable.

Strategic Alignment

• Team Strategy: Impact the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of the team’s work by translating departmental goals into specific team objectives.
• Business Value: Articulate the business value of your team's work (e.g., how specific features support Department KPIs) to stakeholders.

People Management & Development

• Team Management: Exercise formal authority over hiring, compensation, and personnel decisions for your direct reports.
• Performance Management: Conduct formal performance reviews, manage underperformance, and recognize high achievers.
• Coaching: Connect with direct reports through regular 1:1s, coaching them on career development and soft skills.

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, or equivalent experience
• Leadership training or certification.
• Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of DC power plants (-48V), grounding/bonding.
• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a deep practical understanding of Python ecosystems (Django, FastAPI).
• 1+ years of experience in a leadership role (e.g., Team Lead or Associate Manager) with exposure to performance management.
• Proven experience defining team-level operational processes and workflows.
• Proficiency in database design (PostgreSQL) and ORM tools.
• Experience with Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization tools like Docker or Kubernetes.
• Strong understanding of RESTful API design and integration.
• Ability to review code and architectural designs for scalability and security.
• Experience with Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and DevOps practices.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to conduct research as needed.

What’s in it for you

• A united, values-driven culture that genuinely cares about people, collaboration, and community.
• Hybrid work model in our vibrant Liberty Village office
• A comprehensive total rewards package, including Traditional Spending Account (TSA) and Health Care Spending Account (HCSA) coverage to support your physical, mental, and financial well-being.
• An additional five (5) personal care days, giving you extra flexibility to recharge, reset, or take care of what matters most.
