Description

About the Opportunity We're looking for an experienced and dynamic Software Development Engineering and Delivery Manager to lead and oversee our talented desktop, web/cloud, and application integration development teams. This individual will be a key leader in our engineering department, responsible for guiding the technical direction, execution, and delivery of both our established desktop application and our evolving web platform. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software development, a passion for building high-quality solutions, and proven experience managing multiple development teams in a complex and evolving technical environment. This role requires a strategic thinker who can contribute to the architectural vision, drive the migration strategy from desktop to web, and ultimately help us build solutions that our customers will love. The Engineering Manager’s responsibilities include but are not limited to: Lead, mentor, and manage three interconnected development teams (11 engineers in total), fostering a collaborative, innovative, and high-performance culture. Conduct regular one-on-ones, performance reviews, and support the career growth and development of team members. Facilitate communication and collaboration between the desktop, web/cloud teams, and other stakeholders (e.g., product management, cloud operations, QA). Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance for both the .NET desktop application and the Azure-based web application. Contribute to the long-term vision of achieving cross-platform compatibility for the application. Ensure the adoption of software development best practices, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations. Stay current with emerging technologies and industry trends, particularly in .NET, Azure, web development, and cross-platform solutions. Oversee the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC) for both product lines, from planning and design to development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Work closely with product management to understand requirements, define project scope, and ensure timely delivery of high-quality software that meets customer needs. Manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables for both teams. Champion Agile methodologies and drive continuous improvement in development processes. Possess a strong understanding of the application's domain – advanced planning and scheduling for complex manufacturing processes – and its inherent complexities. Facilitate the resolution of complex technical challenges and roadblocks.
