Job Description
Engineering Manager leading transformation in IT for innovative electrical wholesale distributor Voltex Electrical. Manage teams, delivery systems, and engineering culture for scalable outcomes.
Responsibilities:
- Hire, onboard, coach, and retain engineers; build a strong team culture.
- Run effective 1:1s, performance reviews, development plans, and career pathing (Intermediate → Senior → Lead).
- Address performance issues early with clarity and fairness.
- Build team norms around quality, ownership, and collaboration.
- Own team delivery health: planning, prioritisation, sequencing, execution, release readiness.
- Operate the team’s delivery cadence (sprint-based for Delivery teams; flow/kanban for Platform teams).
- Drive clarity of work: crisp tickets, acceptance criteria, dependency mapping, risk management.
- Escalate early and solve bottlenecks — process, staffing, tech debt, unclear requirements.
- Replace heroics with systems: repeatable processes, guardrails, automation, documentation.
- Improve engineering throughput without sacrificing quality (tests, CI/CD hygiene, code review standards, incident learnings).
- Build operating mechanisms: definitions of done, incident postmortems, quality gates, release playbooks.
- Partner with Product Managers, Data, Infra, and business stakeholders to translate objectives into deliverable plans.
- Communicate tradeoffs, timelines, and risks honestly to executives and stakeholders.
- Improve the stakeholder experience: clear updates, predictable outcomes, fewer last-minute surprises.
- Maintain enough technical depth to evaluate architecture and quality, but not act as the primary implementer.
- Partner with Staff / Architects / Lead Engineers on technical direction, tech debt, and platform maturity.
- Ensure the team invests appropriately in maintainability, reliability, and security.
Requirements:
- 5–10+ years in software engineering with 3–5+ years leading teams with formal people-management responsibility.
- Proven ability to improve delivery predictability and team performance — not just ship a project.
- Experience redesigning team culture away from hero-dependency toward scalable, system-driven execution.
- Strong coaching capability: you’ve grown engineers, leads, and future managers.
- Comfortable operating with ambiguity; can turn messy goals into an execution plan.
- Strong written and verbal communication, including stakeholder management across time zones.
- **Preferred**
- Experience with distributed teams (PH ↔ AU), including cultural and communication nuance.
- Familiar with modern engineering ops: CI/CD, incident management, observability, testing strategies.
- Experience in retail / e-commerce, ERP-integrated environments, or operationally heavy domains.
Benefits:
- Competitive salary and benefits package.
- Opportunity to work with a dynamic and innovative team.
- Professional growth and development opportunities.
