By combining cloud-native architecture, intelligent automation, and AI-powered insights, we're helping global consumer goods, life sciences, and manufacturing companies innovate faster, improve compliance, reduce waste, and bring products to market with greater speed and confidence.

# **About the Role**

We are looking for a technically strong Engineering Manager to lead a team of software engineers building and evolving shared cloud platform services that power Esko’s SaaS products. This is a people leadership and engineering execution role requiring deep technical judgment, active engagement in engineering decisions, and accountability for scalable, secure, reliable, production-ready services.

You will partner closely with Product Managers and Architects to translate priorities and architectural direction into effective technical plans. You will guide system design, review critical code and implementation choices, coach engineers, and own delivery quality and operational readiness. You should be capable of writing and debugging production-quality code when needed, while empowering engineers to own day-to-day implementation rather than serving as the team’s primary developer.

# **What You Will Do**

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of software engineers, fostering technical excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement.
• Own engineering delivery and operational health of shared cloud platform services, ensuring scalability, security, reliability, and maintainability.
• Partner with Product Managers and Architects to translate requirements and architectural direction into technical plans and production-ready capabilities.
• Lead technical design discussions and architecture reviews; critically evaluate trade-offs and guide engineers through cloud-native and distributed systems challenges.
• Own predictable engineering execution through planning, prioritization, dependency management, technical debt management, and continuous improvement.
• Set and reinforce standards for code quality, code reviews, automated testing, performance, observability, security, and release readiness; remain technically engaged in critical implementation decisions.
• Lead response to complex production incidents, including technical diagnosis, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and measurable improvements in service reliability.
• Hire, coach, mentor, and manage performance and career development; empower senior engineers to own detailed designs and implementation while maintaining accountability for engineering outcomes.

# **Required Experience**

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful hands-on development experience, with at least 3 years of direct people-management experience leading and developing software engineers.
• Strong technical expertise in Java/JVM, REST APIs, microservices, and cloud-native SaaS applications.
• Experience designing, building, and operating scalable, multi-tenant applications on AWS or another major cloud platform.
• Proven ability to design and evaluate distributed systems, with a deep understanding of scalability, concurrency, consistency, resilience, and fault tolerance.
• Experience with relational and NoSQL databases such as PostgreSQL and DynamoDB, including data modeling and performance optimization.
• Working knowledge of modern frontend technologies such as React and TypeScript, with the ability to guide software engineering teams.
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, automated testing, observability, and modern software delivery practices.
• Demonstrated ability to lead design and code reviews, challenge technical decisions constructively, improve engineering quality, resolve difficult production issues, and deliver complex software initiatives.
• Proven people management capability, including coaching, hiring, performance management, and effective collaboration with Product Managers, Architects, and peer engineering teams.

# **Preferred Experience**

• Experience building shared cloud platform services consumed by multiple SaaS products or engineering teams.
• Experience with IAM, authentication, authorization, SSO, OAuth 2.0, or OpenID Connect.
• Experience with entitlement management, usage metering, subscription management, or transaction processing.
• Experience with API Management platforms, API Gateways, API lifecycle management, and securing and exposing APIs to external consumers.
• Experience with Kafka, Redis, Akka, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, or similar distributed technologies.
• Experience modernizing legacy systems and improving engineering productivity and operational maturity.

# **What Success Looks Like**

• Shared cloud platform services are delivered predictably and meet clear expectations for scalability, security, reliability, and maintainability.
• Engineers own implementation and production outcomes, with effective technical guidance, sound design decisions, and disciplined management of technical debt.
• Engineers grow in technical capability, autonomy, ownership, and effectiveness through coaching, feedback, and career development.
• Product Managers, Architects, and engineers collaborate effectively, with clear accountability for architectural direction, detailed design, and delivery.
• Code review, automated testing, observability, incident response, and release practices demonstrate sustained improvement in quality and operational performance.
• The team becomes high-performing and self-sufficient, able to own additional shared platform services without depending on the manager as its primary individual contributor.
