About Engineering Management
At Adverity, Engineering Managers play a major role in developing and nurturing our engineering team and culture. Engineering Managers ensure a consistent delivery of best experiences to our customers, making sure we are investing in the right technology, people, processes and tools while addressing the most pressing topics across strategic areas like delivery, communication, developer experience, agility, staff retention and growth, and organizational scaling, owning the strategy for one of these areas.
