Hi

Workonomics are partnering with a well‑known, much‑loved, multi-product SaaS company.

They're an established, profitable, maturing business, with millions of users globally.

A key strategic focus is shaping and hardening their enterprise offering. They're crafting a robust, secure, compliant product that brings delight to their largest customers, and enables them to push even further upmarket.

One team in the business is helping enterprise customers manage their data across multiple sources at high scale. They're tackling cross-product challenges with deep technical complexity.

Following an internal promotion, they're now looking for a new Engineering Manager to inspire a high-performing team of Senior ICs.

The ideal person they're looking to hire:

• is an established people manager (this won't suit someone stepping‑up in to management)
• has had success leading and motivating a highly capable product engineering team
• has grown organically from a hands-on Senior Engineer / Tech Lead in to an EM
• is comfortable and influential in code reviews and detailed system design discussions
• easily builds relationships and enjoys nurturing open, collaborative engineeringcultures

Also, how to meaningfully apply AI within the context of data management is currently an unsolved problem here - you'll be helping to creatively shape and influence this, with a lot of experimentation and strategic thinking.

This position is highly visible across the business, and as a result has significant growth potential - as the company scales you can expect to create new teams, define new charters, and grow into Senior Leadership.

If this sounds like you, please hit apply for more specifics about the company and role.
