Rover seeks an experienced engineering manager to help deliver better products for our internal customers and our passionate and growing sitter base.
In addition to the qualifications for engineering manager role listed below, the ideal candidate for this role will have significant experience with financial reporting systems.
Your job is to make the engineers you manage happy and productive by removing roadblocks, and delivering projects on-time and at the desired quality level. Engineering managers act as the interface point between product management and engineering and between individual engineers and the rest of engineering management.
You will work closely with the tech leads you manage to ensure your roadmaps and schedule are up-to-date and help them deliver those projects on-time. You will take feedback from around the team, with special focus on the tech leads input, when writing reviews and helping to mentor and grow the team members you work with. Finally, you will be the first line of technical expertise when PMs or others come to you with new projects, leaning on the tech leads for more low-level expertise of their area as needed.
