You will combine people leadership with technical judgement, partner closely with Product and UX, and take accountability for delivery and the systems your team owns.\nThe role spans people, delivery, technology, financials and business. You will understand the current position in each area and focus on the priorities that matter most at a given time.\n\nWhat you'll do\nTeam leadership and development\nBuild, coach and develop a high-performing team. Identify capability gaps, break down knowledge silos, hire the right talent and support both top performers and people who need to improve.\nCreate an environment of trust, candid feedback, learning and psychological safety. Monitor morale and wellbeing, address productivity blockers and handle difficult conversations when needed.\nSet clear expectations, support individual growth paths and hold people accountable for commitments.

Support budget planning, follow procurement guidelines and align capitalisable product capacity with Finance.\nAlign team priorities with company strategy and stakeholder needs. Negotiate trade-offs across timing, quality and scope to maximise value and learning.\nMeasure the business impact of releases, use product metrics to inform recommendations and show how the team contributes to company goals.\nContribute to cross-team initiatives by identifying improvements, defining and delivering tasks, and presenting outcomes.\nWhat you'll bring\nIndustry experience consistent with Engineering Manager scope, typically 8+ years, with the ability to lead and develop an engineering team within one domain.\nExperience working with mobile engineering teams and a solid understanding of React Native, including its architecture, development practices and the challenges of building and maintaining high-quality cross-platform applications.\nStrong technical judgement and understanding of software architecture, operational reliability, security and the systems your team owns.\nThe ability to coach, delegate, give direct feedback and manage challenging people and leadership situations.\nExperience planning capacity, delivering engineering outcomes and working effectively with Product, UX, data teams and other stakeholders.\nAn understanding of business metrics, financial trade-offs and fundamental data science concepts, combined with clear prioritisation and communication.\nA culture of growth\nWith over 50 nationalities represented, we're proud to welcome people of all backgrounds to our growing community, and we're always finding new ways to help people feel welcomed and included.
