Engineering Manager

Summary

Logicbroker is a company focused on transforming digital commerce through its Agentic Commerce Orchestration Engine. They are seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a distributed team of .NET and DevOps engineers, modernize their .NET codebase, and ensure effective delivery and performance management within the team.

Responsibilities

• Manage.NET engineers by setting expectations, running effective 1:1s, and owning each engineer's growth and performance
• Write production code and review PRs with genuine depth; your technical credibility is the foundation of your coaching
• Mentor engineers across all three dimensions: modern .NET patterns and practices, general engineering craft (design, testing, review culture, observability), and career development
• Partner with our .NET Architect on the ongoing migration from .NET Framework to .NET Core — owning delivery sequencing, removing blockers, and contributing directly to code migrations
• Constructively challenge the Architect's technical direction when warranted; you are an independent voice, not a relay
• Translate architectural decisions into well-scoped work — clear tickets, sequenced workstreams, realistic sprint commitments
• Hold delivery accountability for two non-US-based DevOps engineers and one part-time contractor — ensure work is understood, assigned, and completed without unnecessary delay
• Run sprint ceremonies in partnership with our Delivery Manager; keep the team well-coordinated with dependent product and infrastructure work
• Maintain working knowledge of our AWS and Azure environments sufficient to ask the right questions, assess risk, and escalate appropriately — without doing hands-on infrastructure work yourself
• Surface execution risks, cross-team dependencies, and scope concerns early
• Hold the team to engineering quality standards: code review rigor, observability practices, deployment reliability, and incident response
• Partner with the VP of Engineering and peer EMs on post-merger culture integration: engineering ladder, onboarding standards, and shared practices
• Recruit, onboard, and retain strong talent as the team evolves

Skills

• Proven track record managing software engineers directly — hiring, developing, and holding people accountable to results
• Strong hands-on .NET and C# background — you write production code, review with substance, and can have a peer-level conversation with a senior Architect
• Experience mentoring engineers across craft dimensions: not just what to build, but how to think about design, quality, and professional growth
• Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure and DevOps practices — CI/CD, containerization, cloud platform operations on AWS and/or Azure — sufficient to manage a DevOps team without being a practitioner
• Comfort operating in a globally distributed team across time zones; async communication rigor is non-negotiable
• Clear, proactive communicator who surfaces risks early and keeps stakeholders aligned without hand-holding
• Ability to build structure in ambiguity — we are standardizing tooling and process as we go
• Background as a strong IC who grew into management; you still find energy in the code
