Job Description

Etsy is looking for an Engineering Manager to join its growing Buying Confidence initiative.

This is a full-time role, located (eventually) in Brooklyn, NY.

You’ll join an initiative that enables buyers to choose a particular item by providing them with the right information at just the right time. Engineering managers closely collaborate with their Design and Product partners to build new products and features for our buyers, providing mentorship on engineering concerns such as resilience and maintainability while supporting the career growth of each engineer on the team. You’ll also help the team to plan, collaborate, and communicate with excellence, and to nurture a healthy team culture.

ABOUT THE ROLE

• Lead teams to build great products. At Etsy, engineering managers have a limited role in the hands-on process of building software, but a very large role in orchestrating and coaching engineers to achieve results together

• Participate in the end-to-end recruiting process, hiring and on-boarding exceptional engineering talent

• Collaborate with other engineering teams across Etsy to advocate for and motivate change on behalf of your team

• Partner cross-functionally with Product, Design, Research, and Analytics to ensure that your team is delivering value for our buyers

• Facilitate continuous learning and improvement for your team

Qualifications

ABOUT YOU

• Can promote high-quality technical decision-making across a broad stack, pairing a passion for the technical aspects of your domain with the restraint necessary to enable engineers to make their own decisions

• Know how to apply process judiciously to amplify your team’s work and deliver products more effectively

• Excel in a product engineering environment with an emphasis on experimentation and metrics

• Thrive in close collaboration with other cross-disciplinary leaders to achieve results

• Have the ability to make data-driven decisions in the face of ambiguous or changing priorities and goals

• Have a passion for great documentation, whether it’s for code, system design, or making group decisions
