WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

Are you a technologist, builder, and lifelong learner? Do you want to be hands-on in delivering innovative, market-winning products that change our customer’s lives? We are seeking an Engineering Manager to lead our focused and talented Student Housing team within our Mixed Portfolio product domain.
AppFolio is building the platform where real estate comes to do business. Student Housing is a key market for us to realize this mission and is rapidly expanding with over 4 million units in the U.S. The nature of this industry is cyclical on the annual calendar - everything happens at once. From move-ins, move-outs, to renewals and pricing updates, these customers need scaleable, intuitive solutions to run their business with efficiency and flexibility. This team’s job is to deliver them, not only for our Student Housing customers, but also for residential customers, when applicable. The ideal candidate we’re looking for is passionate about hands-on engineering work and will excel in not only leadership, but also direct contribution.
This engineering leader will manage and develop a truly world-class software engineering team responsible for bringing this mission to reality.

SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE:

• BS, MS, or Ph.D. in Computer Science or related technical discipline
• Proven experience leading engineering teams during the evolution of the Engineering function from start-up to mid lifecycle.
• 2+ years of successfully hiring, directly managing, coaching, and retaining world-class engineers.
• 5+ years of demonstrated experience leading and contributing to the design, development, delivery, and maintenance of large-scale and high-performance platforms.
• Well-versed not only in the typical Agile rituals and practices - but also the modern, genuinely agile practices of rapid experimentation and continuous delivery of value.
• Proficiency with most areas of our tech like Ruby, React, and SQL.
• Exceptional interpersonal skills with a proven ability to build productive cross-functional relationships and motivate team members. Must have a positive, can-do attitude and value collaboration.
• The ability to thrive with high levels of personal initiative, autonomy, and responsibility
