Must-Haves

• Experienced. You’ve worked on cloud technology and have built highly scalable software solutions, and you have a proven track record of scaling efficiently and handling large volumes of data. 
• Strategic. You know how to set technical direction and guide your team towards successful project outcomes. You can ensure alignment with the company’s strategic goals by facilitating design sessions, creating architectural diagrams, and evaluating risks in our software and processes.
• A mentor. You can support the professional development of your team members through confidence-building, sharing knowledge and providing guidance.
• Excellent communication skills. Your ability to articulate ideas clearly and work effectively with various stakeholders will be crucial in driving cross-functional projects.

Nice-to-Haves

• Formal managerial experience. Skills like career coaching and performance management will enhance your ability to succeed as an Engineering Manager at Hudl.
• Professional background in relevant technologies. Experience with C#, React, React-Native, MongoDB and AWS are a plus. Familiarity with adjacent languages, frameworks and services used at scale is also valuable.
• Experience in product partnership. A proven ability to collaborate effectively with Product Managers to shape and solidify the team’s roadmap will be an asset.

Our Role

• Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
• Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas. 
• Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
• Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech stack and hardware to do your best work.
• Support your mental and physical health. We care about our employees’ wellbeing. Our Employee Assistance Program, employee resource groups and fitness partner Peerfit have you covered.
• Cover your medical insurance. We have multiple plans to pick from to ensure you’ll have the coverage you (and your dependents) want, including vision, dental, fertility healthcare and family forming benefits.
• Contribute to your 401(K). Yep, that’s free money. We’ll match up to 4% of your own contribution.
