Position Details

Job Title: Engineering Manager

Function/Department: Technology

Employment Type: Full-time

Location: Hyderabad/Bangalore

Key Responsibilities

We are looking for an Engineering Manager who leads differently — someone who has already internalized that AI changes how software is built, not just what gets built. This role is for a hands‑on leader who drives engineering teams to default to AI‑first thinking: in how they code, test, review, and ship. You will manage and grow a high‑performing engineering team building enterprise‑grade platforms on Java, .NET, and Azure, and you will be the person who raises the AI fluency floor of the entire team.

• Set the AI-native engineering standard — AI-assisted development, intelligent test generation, automated code review, and agentic workflows are default practice, not experiments.


• Embed AI tooling into the full SDLC: from requirements parsing to deployment observability.


• Drive end-to-end delivery of scalable enterprise applications; own sprint quality, release velocity, and technical debt trade-offs.


• Make architectural decisions in partnership with Principal Engineers and Solution Architects; be opinionated.


• Actively evaluate emerging AI engineering tools (coding assistants, test generation, semantic search, agentic frameworks) and share learnings across teams.


• Lead and develop a team of engineers and technical leads; own their growth, performance, and culture.


• Champion psychological safety and a bias-for-action culture — high standards and high trust are not a trade‑off.


• Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and building the CECI Digital engineering brand.

What We're Looking For

• Strong hands‑on engineering background in Java with solid Azure platform experience.


• You have personally used AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, etc.) and embedded them into team workflows — not piloted them.


• Experience leading engineering teams in agile, high‑delivery environments.


• You can read code, review PRs, and engage technically — this is not a purely managerial role.


• A clear point of view on what good AI‑native engineering looks like, and the ability to articulate it.


• Experience with microservices, cloud‑native patterns, CI/CD, and DevOps practices.


• Prior exposure to regulated industries (insurance, fintech, banking) is a plus — not a gate.

Qualifications

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent.


• 15-20 years in software engineering, with at least 3 years leading teams.


• Exceptional candidates with fewer years and stronger AI depth are welcome.

Why Join Us?

• Be at the forefront of digital transformation in the insurance industry.


• Lead impactful initiatives that simplify claims processing and enhance customer satisfaction.


• Work alongside experienced professionals in a collaborative, innovation‑driven environment.
