About the Role

Longshot Systems is seeking an Engineering Manager to oversee the people and process aspects of our engineering organization, which consists of approximately 30-50 individuals. This role focuses on managing engineers, their development, and the processes that ensure team efficiency, allowing technical leaders to concentrate on technical work.

Responsibilities

  • Own the engineering hiring process end-to-end, including funnel design, interview processes, and candidate evaluation.
  • Design role-specific interviews in collaboration with tech leads and improve overall funnel efficiency.
  • Manage the twice-yearly review cycle, progression framework, and cross-team calibration.
  • Make compensation recommendations and jointly decide on promotions with the CTO.
  • Identify training or conference opportunities to support engineer growth.
  • Diagnose reasons for slow progress and flag issues with the maintenance-to-development balance or process adherence.
  • Provide metrics and reporting to help tech leads identify issues early.
  • Advance our processes and standards based on experience in high-performing engineering organizations.
  • Champion investment in developer user experience, including the adoption of LLM-based tooling.
  • Experiment with new tools, processes, and techniques to assess their value.
  • Manage cloud spend, SaaS estate and licensing.
  • Oversee security processes, including starters and leavers.
  • Manage company-wide onboarding for technical staff.

Requirements

  • A software engineering background with the technical credibility to collaborate with senior individual contributors.
  • Proven experience as a people manager of engineers, including managing review cycles, progression, and calibration.
  • A track record of owning engineering hiring at volume, not just participating.
  • Experience in engineering organizations of approximately 30-50 people, not a large-corporate background.
  • Comfortable operating without dedicated HR, IT, or procurement teams.
  • Extensive experience in improving processes, standards, and delivery in high-performing engineering teams.
  • A collaborative approach focused on improving others' team performance.
  • Fluent written and spoken English for effective communication.
