You’ll work directly with technical and non-technical Nike Innovation stakeholders, athlete*s, and other teams within Global Technology.\nWHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR\nYou are a senior engineering manager who pairs technical depth with product ownership. You know your own technical, managerial, and career direction, and you’ve learned when to dig in versus when to lean on your team. You have a strong technical background across multiple stacks and stay current on emerging technology, tools, and patterns. You take ownership of your product end-to-end - partnering with stakeholders to define what to build, why it matters, and how it fits into a strategic roadmap spanning a year or more. You build strong partnerships with less technical stakeholders in complex enterprise environments, and you’re comfortable translating ambiguous research and innovation goals into a clear, prioritized plan of execution.\nTo be considered for this position, the candidate should:\nHave strong technical and non-technical communication skills, including translating business and research goals into technical requirements.\n\nHave experience owning a product roadmap and prioritizing a backlog in partnership with stakeholders, balancing new features, technical debt, and shifting business priorities.\n\nHave reliable instincts regarding the consequences of complexity.\n\nBe an expert in designing, building, and consuming reliable, secure, synchronous, and asynchronous web services for front end utilization.\n\nHave experience building consumer facing web UI utilizing modular and reactive UI frameworks.\n\nUnderstand, anticipate, and plan for the differences between analytical data and transactional data, and the implications of each on system design and AI.\n\nBe able to lead architectural design discussions, grounded in best practices and lessons learned from your own experience.\n\nPractice, evolve, and promote agile development methodologies, including experience acting as or working closely with a product owner.\n\nWe will prioritize consideration by these preferred skills and experiences:\nBachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science or related field. Will accept any suitable combination of education, experience or training.\n\n7+ years’ experience in technology & software engineering roles.\n\nExperience leading engineering teams in a highly collaborative environment.\n\nExperience partnering with product managers or owners on roadmap definition, prioritization frameworks, and translating user needs into actionable backlogs.\n\nDemonstrable knowledge of the roles, skills, activities, practices, tools, and deliverables applied at every phase of the software lifecycle.\nExperience with front-end frameworks like React, Vue.js, or Angular.\n\nHands-on experience implementing and supporting modern software architectural principles and patterns (REST, domain-driven design, microservices, etc).\n\nExperience with cloud architecture, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, and related tools.\n\nStrong understanding of architectural design patterns and computer science fundamentals.\n\nExperience with integration patterns, data movement, and enrichment capabilities, along with an understanding of the enterprise security and privacy requirements they carry.\n\nExperience gathering and synthesizing requirements from non-technical stakeholders such as researchers, designers, and scientists.\n\nComfort making data-informed product decisions, including defining and tracking success metrics for delivered features.\n\nProven, results-oriented track record of achieving aggressive goals.\n\nExperience with Agile software development methodology.\n\nWHAT YOU’LL WORK ON\nThe team’s mission is to provide technology centered experiences which enable Nike’s Innovation and Sports Science organizations to engage with a consumer at a scale that they never could in the past. Working within the LeBron James Innovation Center which houses the Nike Sports Research Lab, the engineering team collaborates with innovation leaders, designers, data scientists, and researchers to bring our work outside the lab, gaining access to a much larger and more diverse set of participants so that we can gain better insights into the future of Nike’s products.\nTo accomplish this successfully, we expect you to:\nOwn and communicate a product roadmap, partnering closely with business stakeholders to drive decisions and prioritize the team’s work.\n\nTranslate ambiguous research and innovation goals into clear, actionable product requirements and a well-groomed backlog.\n\nSuccessfully operate within our engineering environment and help it evolve over time.\n\nReview technical designs, code, and tests, giving supportive feedback and asking good questions.\n\nFoster a collaborative environment that rewards experimentation, initiative, curiosity, and mentoring.\n\nManage the performance, growth, and career development of your direct reports, including setting expectations, delivering regular feedback, and writing performance reviews.\n\nHandle the HR administration that comes with people leadership - hiring and interviewing, onboarding, compensation planning, and other personnel matters - in partnership with HR.\n\nDesign full-stack applications for quality, security, reliability, availability, maintainability, and performance.\n\nPractice DevOps, ensuring a culture of testing and releasing software continuously using automation and monitoring.\n\nPartner with other engineering and product teams to loosely couple and scale the ecosystem.\n\nWe offer a number of accommodations to complete our interview process including screen readers, sign language interpreters, accessible and single location for in-person interviews, closed captioning, and other reasonable modifications as needed. If you discover, as you navigate our application process, that you need assistance or an accommodation due to a disability, please complete the Candidate Accommodation Request Form.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6139,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Footwear","Sporting Goods","Sportswear & Activewear"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-15T01:53:40Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 220 · green card filings: 201","filings_12m":220,"filings_prev_12m":373,"green_card_filings_12m":201,"median_offered_wage_usd":162441,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":10,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-15T18:04:39Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":27399,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-16T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1634},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1634"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnike-senior-manager-software-engineering-2"}]}
