    Job description

    Online interview

    We believe every software project is a system of communicating vessels. Even the best quality written code is worth nothing if created without reference to the client's needs and user characteristics. The code will never be high-quality if a conscious and experienced developer does not write it. At last, even best practices in code or design remain theory if they are not implemented and tested in an existing project that fits the team's expertise.


    We're looking for an Engineering Manager who is aware of that system and eager to manage it.


    Our Delivery team currently consists of two Tribes - separate and independent units that could lead the end-to-end projects, improve and maintain them in a long-term perspective. As a manager of one Tribe, you will be the primary decision- and impact-maker, called Tribe Chief. Apart from tech specialists (such as Designer, Frontend Developers and Software Tester), you will pair up with a dedicated Project Manager to help you create and deliver the best quality projects to our clients and an HR Partner to deal with people-related matters and team development. Additionally, the Sales and Marketing team is at your disposal too, to acquire well-suited projects and clients.
