Job Description

We're looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead a frontend-focused engineering team building products that help companies understand how their users experience and navigate their digital surfaces. This is a hands-on leadership role — you'll own the people, the process, and the technical direction, partnering closely with Product Management and Design to ship high-quality software that scales.

Your team works primarily in React, Vue, TypeScript, and Node.js, backed by AWS infrastructure and PostgreSQL. While your day-to-day is people and delivery leadership, you're someone who gets into the weeds on architecture and technical decisions — not just to stay informed, but because your team will rely on your judgment.


What You'll Do
  • Lead, grow, and retain a team of frontend engineers, setting a high bar for technical quality and engineering craft
  • Drive key technical decisions — from frontend architecture to cross-team dependencies — and roll up your sleeves when it matters
  • Partner closely with Product Managers and Designers to shape roadmaps, scope work, and deliver with confidence
  • Establish and improve engineering processes that keep the team moving fast without accumulating unmanageable tech debt
  • Collaborate effectively with engineering peers and stakeholders across EU and US timezones
  • Hire and develop talent, building a team culture of ownership, curiosity, and continuous improvement
  • Represent your teams clearly upward and across the organization, surfacing risks and opportunities early

  • What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years of experience managing software engineering teams in a professional setting
  • Strong frontend engineering background with hands-on familiarity across the modern stack — React, Vue, TypeScript, Node.js, AWS, and PostgreSQL
  • Full-stack exposure sufficient to reason about system-level dependencies and collaborate effectively with backend and infrastructure teams
  • Demonstrated ability to make and drive technical decisions — not just facilitate, but lead
  • Proven experience partnering with Product Management and Design to deliver end-to-end features and products
  • Based in France or Spain, with the ability to work comfortably across EU business hours

  • What will make you stand out?
  • 5+ years managing software engineering teams, including senior engineers or tech leads
  • Domain knowledge in Product Analytics, Digital Experience Analytics, or adjacent fields
  • Familiarity with modern AI-assisted development tools and a track record of helping teams incorporate them effectively
  • Experience managing distributed teams across US, EU, and other timezones
