WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

We are hiring an entrepreneurial Engineering Manager interested in being a part of our rapidly growing engineering team. Our engineers are conscientious hackers who like teamwork but are also comfortable with independent projects. Our engineering team releases new software every week, moves at a fast pace, and works directly with our design and customer-facing teams to imagine and build the new experiences our customers love. Because of that, you’ll get a rewarding variety of projects to work on.

As an Engineering Manager, you've been in the industry for a while and have a proven track record of success. You are comfortable leading complex, high-liability projects. You have experience making key architectural decisions and performing the research to back up those decisions. You've dealt with the consequences of your mistakes, and you know how to fight fires if necessary. You enjoy mentoring and providing support. You've thrived in different environments and realize that each team is unique.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• You will lead one of our core engineering teams which is key to Qualia’s continued growth

• Strong hands-on technical leadership, people management, project management and communication skills
• Keen product sense, attention to detail, and passion for the impact of the software you build
• Background in enterprise software and fintech preferred
• While this role is based in San Francisco, California, we're open to exploring remote possibilities for qualified candidates

This role has a base annual salary of $200,000-$220,000 plus a competitive equity and benefits package. (Salary to be determined by relevant experience, location, knowledge, and skills of the applicant, internal equity, and alignment with market data.)

ABOUT OUR ENGINEERING TEAM

• Our engineering team demonstrates and values technical thought leadership.

• Qualia’s Head of Design, Jack Lukic, is the creator of Semantic UI, one of the most popular open-source design frameworks. Qualia engineers learn this framework, and design patterns more generally, directly from the creator of the framework our front end is built on! Very few companies can say that. 
• As part of our focus on continual learning and development, a Qualia team member gives an educational talk on something they’re interested in every Thursday to the entire engineering and product team.
