Engineering Manager (Platform Engineering)

Full-Time Permanent Opportunity

The Engineering Manager (Platform Engineering) is a key people and technical leader responsible for leading a team of Engineers in pursuit of the team's mission - enabling development teams to rapidly build, deliver and operate high quality products through the provision of tooling, automation and expertise. They play a crucial role in ensuring the successful delivery of high-quality software solutions while fostering a culture of accountability, Technical and Operational Excellence.

Engineering Managers partner closely with a Product Manager to set the direction for the team and drive the delivery outcomes. They have a strong technical background and are not afraid to roll up their sleeves on delivery tasks when required to help the team achieve its goals. Their focus, however, is on people, technical, and delivery leadership as well as the health and availability of the production systems.

Engineering Managers are responsible for team health and the performance and growth of the Engineers within it. They uplift capability through coaching, mentoring and hiring to ensure the team is well placed to tackle the unique challenges within their domain. They foster collaboration and alignment within and across teams to achieve organisational objectives. They typically become Subject Matter Experts for their domain.
