Engineering program manager Offres d'emploi - Old toronto, ON

Senior Engineering Manager – Checkfront & Regiondo About the Role We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the teams responsible for Checkfront and Regiondo, established booking-management products used by thousands of tour, activity, and experience operators.

Checkfront and Regiondo are mature, revenue-generating products with years of functionality and customer needs represented in their codebases.

The teams will continue delivering meaningful product improvements while placing increased emphasis on stability, reliability, performance, maintainability, and operational confidence.

As a Senior Engineering Manager, you will be accountable for the health, development, performance, and delivery of the engineering teams for both products.

You’ll work closely with Product, senior technical contributors and other engineering leaders to establish priorities, make sound tradeoffs, and create an environment in which engineers can effectively work and grow.

We employ a player-coach model for engineering leadership.

You won’t be expected to be the team’s primary implementer or sole technical decision maker, and your success will not be measured by your personal output.

You will, however, be expected to remain close enough to the work to represent the major systems, architectural decisions, delivery risks, incidents, and operational characteristics across your area.

You should be able to explain the technical approach for both teams, participate credibly in engineering discussions, and make high-level decisions.

This is a role for a technical leader who enjoys leading people as well as improving how engineering teams build and deliver quality software.
