About this role
This Engineering Manager leads the five-person Backend team in the Engineering Division, supporting a consumer AI English-conversation app. Reporting to the existing EM and CTO, the role combines people leadership with hands-on technical contribution as backend functionality and data needs grow. Responsibilities include goal setting, evaluations, 1:1s and engineer development, as well as hiring and team building. The manager improves development processes and shared knowledge, provides technical direction, handles incidents and other backend issues without a clear owner, and leads selected backend work. The stack includes Kotlin, Python, Spring Boot, MySQL, AWS, GCP, Azure and GitHub Actions; Datadog and Sentry are used for monitoring. Applicants need engineer people-management experience covering goal setting, evaluation, development and hiring, plus practical backend development experience that supports technical decisions and reviews from design through operations.
