Engineering Manager, Solution Architecture

Engineering Manager

As an Engineering Manager on the Solution Architecture team, you will be part of a team that owns the design and integrations of products and their modules. The team creates and maintains context maps, API designs, and sequence diagrams, then partner with engineering teams to turn those solutions into production software. The team also maintains our Developer and Architect Portal, aiming to make simple the communication of our software stack and its capabilities.

As an engineering manager, you will be responsible for the strength of the Solution Architecture team and the stewardship of the code and technology that it uses. The former involves promoting a holistic view of our business' domains, fostering teamwork, coaching inter-personal skills, and hiring and evaluating team members. The latter will have you developing architects' skills in the tooling we use as well as team and department patterns and practices. At times the manager will also identify areas where tradeoffs need to be made between various concerns (e.g., timelines, quality, complexity, performance) and facilitate the effort to reach an agreement on the right approach.

To accomplish all of this, the manager must, themselves, have strong technical and interpersonal skills.
