Jobs in Gatineau, Malaysia

Remote - Canada

For millions of teams working in dozens of industries, day-to-day business gets done on the phone. So why — despite the huge leaps we've taken in design and usability — does most business phone software still look, feel, and act like it was born in the 90s? OpenPhone is changing that.

We’re a new type of business phone with a mission to help people communicate better and be more productive.

We’re backed by Y Combinator and some of the best venture firms around including Tiger Global, Craft Ventures, Slow Ventures, and others. We take pride in providing an exceptional customer experience and a product people love, which is why we’re excited that our customers have rated us the #1 VoIP Provider on G2.

OpenPhone is the modern, sophisticated answer to the clunky, outdated phone systems that have been slowing down businesses for years. With thousands of happy customers and several rounds of funding in just five years, it's safe to say we're onto something big.

At OpenPhone, we're looking for a Senior Engineering Manager who will lead and grow a team dedicated to improving our platform’s functionality and user experience. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software engineering and a proven track record as a leader managing complex teams. They should thrive in a fast-growing environment where initiative, creativity, and ownership are valued, and foundational practices are being established.

Some of the things you’ll do:

• Lead a new Data + Insights Squad: This is a newly forming team that will use AI and more to help our customers manage and derive insights from their data. You’ll drive the vision and strategy and lead a cohesive, healthy, and high-performing team.
• Driving strategic initiatives: Work cross-functionally to align engineering efforts with business goals and across teams (as needed), ensuring that our solutions are prioritized appropriately while meeting customer needs and maintaining high standards in scalability, reliability, and efficiency.
• Manage people & developing leaders: Hire, coach, mentor, and partner with engineers and engineering leaders to foster a collaborative environment focused on continuous learning, manage performance, and support professional growth.
• Technical guidance: Ensure the team has what it needs to make technical decisions, provide guidance on those decisions, ensure clarity of the problem space, and empower the team to own their decisions.
• Building products: Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to build our product that will drive improvements to our customer data and views. You have strong experience balancing competing priorities and driving large initiatives.
• Integrating AI: Spearhead the integration of AI technologies, including enhancing contact properties.

About you:

• Experienced in leading high-performing remote teams, coaching engineers and leaders, and fostering collaboration through strong communication and active listening skills.
• Strong background in software engineering, especially in SaaS and fast-growing environments, with experience in evaluating technical feasibility and familiarity with AI technologies to enhance product features.
• Skilled in strategic prioritization, balancing short-term goals with long-term vision, and building scalable practices with an ownership mindset and a commitment to excellence.
