At Minga, we’re creating the Student Behavior Platform schools can’t imagine running without. We’re on a mission to make school life run have fun while we’re at it.

We’re a tight-knit team of curious, creative, and low-ego humans who genuinely enjoy working together. We care deeply about the work we do and the people we do it with, and that shows up in how we lead, collaborate, and celebrate.

Our culture is built on trust, ownership, and continuous learning. Whether you’re working from our Kelowna HQ or remotely, you’ll have the autonomy to do your best work, the support to grow, and the opportunity to make a real impact in the lives of educators and students.

The Role

We’re not just hiring for a position, we’re adding a teammate. Someone who wants to help build what’s next, take real ownership, and grow with us along the way.

Reporting to the Director of Engineering, the Engineering Manager will lead one of our cross-functional product teams. This team is full-stack by nature (frontend, backend, and everything in between), and laser-focused on delivering user-facing features that move the needle for our product and our mission.

You’ll lead a group of talented developers who care deeply about quality, impact, and user experience, and you’ll play a critical role in helping them grow while ensuring we deliver the right things, the right way.

This role is full-time, Monday through Friday. We are a hybrid work environment with 3 days a week in the office (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday) with optional remote days (Wednesday, Friday). There is potential for relocation from within Canada for the right candidate, if you want to move to the Kelowna area and be able to reliably commute into the office downtown Kelowna in the Innovation Center.

What You’ll Do

• Team leadership : Coaching and supporting frontend, backend developers. You’ll help each team member grow in their craft and career while keeping the team aligned and motivated.
• Delivery accountability : Partnering with Product and Design to scope and prioritize work, track progress, remove blockers, and ensure features ship smoothly and predictably.
• Technical context and decision-making : You don’t need to code daily, but you’ll bring engineering judgment to architecture discussions, technical planning, and trade-off decisions.
• Quality and velocity : Maintaining a high bar for performance, usability, and code quality, while ensuring we’re not over engineering or slowing down delivery.
• Culture and collaboration : Creating an environment where people feel safe to take risks, offer feedback, and do their best work. You'll also help onboard new engineers and reinforce our values as we scale.
