Job description

Join to apply for the Engineering Manager role at Uplifter Inc.

About Uplifter

Uplifter Inc. is a leading North American sports‑technology company powering 1,700+ clubs, 200+ national and provincial organizations, and 4 million users across gymnastics, curling, skating, cycling, athletics, and more. With teams in Toronto, Vancouver, Montréal, and Nashville, we build the mission‑critical infrastructure that keeps amateur and elite sport running—membership, events, payments, compliance, sanctioning, and athlete pathways.

As we unify multiple platforms (Uplifter, Interpodia, Curling Club Manager) and build Uplifter 2.0, we are modernizing our engineering organization to deliver scalable, reliable, and intuitive product experiences.

Job Summary

The Engineering Manager is responsible for leading and developing engineering teams across front‑end, back‑end, full‑stack, QA, and DevOps, driving execution, quality, and alignment with product strategy.

This role is people‑focused, delivery‑focused, and process‑focused, with some light technical contribution (10–20%) through code review, pairing, and architectural discussion.

Engineering Manager works closely with :

  • CPO — delivery expectations, prioritization
  • Product Managers — requirements, roadmap alignment
  • Staff Engineer — architecture, tech direction
  • DevOps — reliability, performance, deployment discipline

This role is hybrid, in‑office (minimum 3 days a week), in Toronto, Vancouver, or Montréal.

Key Responsibilities

People Leadership

  • Lead a team of 8–15 engineers across multiple disciplines.
  • Provide coaching, mentorship, regular 1 : 1s, and performance feedback.
  • Manage career development, training, and skill progression.
  • Drive a positive engineering culture centered on accountability, ownership, and quality.
  • Partner with Talent Acquisition to hire and onboard new team members.
  • Delivery & Execution

  • Own sprint execution and engineering delivery for multiple product areas.
  • Ensure teams have clear requirements, estimates, and delivery plans.
  • Remove blockers, manage capacity, and maintain predictable delivery cycles.
  • Work closely with PMs to prioritize and schedule features, tech debt, and bug fixes.
  • Drive continuous improvement in speed, quality, and collaboration.
  • Technical Leadership

  • Support the Staff Engineer in enforcing architecture, standards, and engineering rigor.
  • Ensure systems are built for reliability, scalability, and long‑term maintainability.
  • Promote modern engineering best practices : testing, CI / CD, observability, documentation.
  • Participate in technical discussions, code reviews, and incident response.
  • Help guide the transition toward Uplifter 2.0 platform modernization.
  • Process & Quality

  • Implement engineering processes that balance speed with discipline.
  • Improve QA planning, test coverage, and release quality.
  • Advance reliability practices across environments (monitoring, alerts, on‑call workflows).
  • Ensure engineering output meets defined acceptance criteria and SLAs.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • 5+ years experience in software engineering, with 2+ years in a leadership role.
  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop high‑performing engineers.
  • Strong understanding of modern SaaS architecture (API‑first, microservices or monolith evolution).
  • Experience running agile teams with predictable delivery outcomes.
  • Background in PHP, Python / Django, or modern front‑end frameworks (React preferred) is a strong asset.
  • Experience with cloud environments (AWS ideal).
  • Strong communication, prioritization, and problem‑solving skills.
  • Comfortable operating in a scaling, multi‑platform environment.
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience in multi‑product or multi‑codebase environments.
  • Experience with payment systems, compliance workflows, or high‑volume transactional SaaS.
  • Background in sports technology, membership systems, event platforms, or NGB / club solutions.
  • Why Join Uplifter?

  • Competitive salary + performance bonus
  • Full health / dental / vision benefits
  • Hybrid in‑office work environment
  • 15 days of vacation
  • Opportunity to shape the next‑generation sports technology platform
  • Strong culture of ownership, autonomy, and product innovation
  • A chance to directly impact amateur and elite sport across North America and globally
  • Referrals increase your chances of interviewing at Uplifter Inc. by 2x.
