One commerce platform. A frontend in the middle of a rebuild. The Engineering Manager for eCommerce leads the team behind Camping World, Overton's, and The House, all running on Salesforce Commerce Cloud. We're moving those storefronts to a headless frontend on Next.js and Vercel right now, and this person leads the migration from the front of the line, not from behind a dashboard.\nThis is a player-coach role. You'll lead a team of roughly 10 engineers across the US, Mexico, and India, a blend of full-time employees and contractor partners, AND you'll write code alongside them. You'll pick up stories, pair with engineers, review pull requests, and challenge architecture decisions from inside the codebase. We are not looking for someone who only manages people. We're looking for someone who leads by building.\nYou'll sit on the Digital Consumer Products team and partner closely with the Engineering Manager for RV Sales and the Sr. Manager of QA. You'll tie every piece of engineering work to the business value it creates. And you'll help us unleash AI across the entire software development lifecycle, from planning and design through coding, testing, and release.\nSuccess looks like a headless storefront shipping in increments without breaking what already works, a distributed team operating as ONE team regardless of timezone or employment type, AI embedded in how the team builds every day, and a platform the business trusts when peak season hits.\nKey Responsibilities\nLead the Team\nLead, coach, and grow a distributed team of roughly 10 engineers across the US, Mexico, and India through regular 1:1s, clear expectations, and honest feedback.\nBuild one team out of a blended workforce of roughly 60% full-time employees and 40% contractors. Same standards, same rituals, same quality bar, regardless of badge.\nDesign overlap windows, clean handoffs, and async documentation so work keeps moving across timezones without burning people out on late-night calls.\nHire, onboard, and develop engineers, and partner with HR and vendor partners on staffing decisions, including the right mix of full-time and contractor capacity.\nSet the pace by raising the bar on yourself first. Show up in the work, not just the status meeting.\nBuild Alongside the Team\nWrite production code on a regular basis, including picking up stories inside the sprint alongside your engineers.\nPair with engineers, review pull requests, and lead technical design from inside the codebase.\nPrototype the hardest parts of the headless migration first, so the team inherits a proven pattern instead of a guess.\nKnow the codebase well enough to spot a problem in a pull request before it becomes a problem in production.\nOwn the Headless Migration\nLead the migration from our current Salesforce Commerce Cloud storefront to a headless frontend built on Next.js and deployed on Vercel.\nSequence the migration in increments, by page type, brand, or capability, so the business keeps selling while the rebuild happens underneath it.\nProtect SEO rankings, URL structures, site performance, Core Web Vitals, analytics fidelity, and checkout reliability through every cutover. The business can't afford to lose any of them.\nPartner with Enterprise Architecture on integration patterns between the Next.js frontend, SFCC APIs (SCAPI, OCAPI, SLAS), and third-party services such as search, content, payments, and personalization.\nUnleash AI Across the SDLC\nLead AI adoption across the full software development lifecycle, including requirements, design, coding, code review, testing, documentation, and release.\nPut AI coding assistants and agents in every engineer's hands with clear guardrails, standards, and review practices. AI multiplies whatever it lands on, so clean code and clear standards come first.\nPartner with the Sr. Manager of QA on AI-assisted test generation, regression coverage, and quality automation.\nMeasure the impact in cycle time, quality, and throughput, and share what works, and what doesn't, with the broader Digital Consumer Products team.\nModel it personally. Use the tools every day in your own code so you lead the team into AI instead of mandating it from a distance.\nRun a Multi-Brand Platform\nOwn engineering delivery for 3 brand storefronts, balancing shared components and code reuse against the brand-specific experiences each business needs.\nKeep production healthy by owning uptime, performance, and incident response, with extra rigor ahead of peak selling seasons.\nEstablish observability, alerting, and on-call practices so the team finds problems before customers do.\nRaise the Engineering Bar\nOwn quality through automated testing, CI/CD, code review standards, and release practices built for a team spread across 3 countries.\nPay down technical debt on purpose, and make the case for it in business terms leadership can act on.\nPartner Across Digital Consumer Products\nPartner closely with the Engineering Manager for RV Sales on shared platform, integration, and customer experience work across our digital channels.\nPartner with the Sr. Manager of QA on test strategy, release quality, and regression coverage through every phase of the headless migration.\nWork with digital product, merchandising, marketing, and brand leaders to turn business goals into an engineering roadmap.\nTie engineering work to measurable business value, such as conversion, revenue, average order value, site speed, and customer experience, and make the connection visible to the team and to leadership.\nTranslate technical trade-offs into plain language for non-technical stakeholders, and bring business context back to the team.\nManage Vendor and Contractor Partners\nHold contractor and systems integrator partners to our engineering standards, from SOW scoping through delivery.\nBuild knowledge transfer into how the team works so critical platform knowledge lives inside the team, not with a single vendor or a single person.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nFirst 90 Days\nYou've shipped code to production yourself and know the codebase, the brands, and the migration plan well enough to put your own stamp on the roadmap.\nYou've built a steady 1:1 and team cadence across all 3 countries, and every engineer knows what good looks like.\nYou've named the top risks to the headless migration and put a plan against each one.\nYou've baselined how the team uses AI today and laid out where it goes next across the SDLC.\nFirst 12 Months\nReal customer traffic runs on the headless frontend, with performance and SEO at parity or better.\nAI is embedded across the team's SDLC with measurable gains in cycle time and quality, not just licenses handed out.\nThe distributed team ships on a predictable cadence under shared standards, and full-time and contractor engineers are indistinguishable by the quality of their work.\nLeadership can see the business value behind the roadmap, and the business trusts the platform through peak season.\nRequired Qualifications\n7+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 3 years in a player-coach or engineering manager role leading engineers directly.\nCurrently hands-on. You still write production code and are ready to prove it in a technical interview.\nHands-on experience with Salesforce Commerce Cloud (B2C Commerce), including storefront development, cartridges, and platform APIs.\nStrong command of modern frontend engineering, including JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and server-rendered web applications.\nDemonstrated experience unleashing AI across the SDLC, with real examples of AI tools and agents changing how a team plans, builds, tests, and ships.\nA proven ability to tie engineering work to business value and communicate it in terms leadership can act on.\nProven experience leading distributed teams across multiple countries and timezones, ideally including nearshore or offshore engineers.\nExperience leading a blended team of full-time employees and contractors, including holding vendor partners accountable to delivery and quality.\nA track record running production eCommerce platforms at scale, including peak season readiness and incident management.\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent professional experience.\nHighly Preferred\nProduction experience with headless or composable commerce architecture, ideally headless Salesforce Commerce Cloud.\nHands-on experience with Next.js and Vercel, including SSR, ISR, edge rendering, and caching strategies.\nExperience leading a storefront replatform or migration from a monolithic frontend to a headless architecture.\nPreferred Qualifications\nDeep familiarity with SCAPI, OCAPI, SLAS, and SFCC Business Manager.\nExperience running multi-brand or multi-site commerce on a shared platform.\nBackground in retail, outdoor, marine, RV, or specialty retail environments.\nWorking knowledge of SEO, accessibility (WCAG), and Core Web Vitals in a commerce context.\nFamiliarity with our stack or close analogs, including Vercel, Harness or comparable CI/CD, Dynatrace or comparable observability, Kong or comparable API gateway, Linear, and Confluence.\nCore Competencies\nPlayer-coach. Leads from inside the code, not from a dashboard.\nAI multiplier. Puts AI to work across the SDLC and proves the gains with real numbers.\nBusiness obsession. Cares more about conversion than syntax, and ties the work to value.\nOne-team mindset. US, Mexico, or India, full-time or contractor, one team and one standard.\nPragmatic judgment. Boring, reliable tech where it counts, new tech where it multiplies.\nUpdates on evidence. Changes their mind when they hear a better argument.\nWhy Join Us\nLead a headless replatform across 3 brands, the kind of project most engineering leaders get once or twice in a career.\nHelp set the pace for how AI reshapes software delivery across Digital Consumer Products.\nShape the engineering culture of a distributed team while still building every day.\nGeneral Compensation Disclosure\nThe pay range for this role considers several factors in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs.
