Job Description
Software Engineering Manager leading a team at NexGen Cloud for the Hyperstack platform's development. Focused on engineering leadership, quality delivery, and coaching software engineers.
Responsibilities:
- Lead, support, and develop a team of software engineers through regular feedback, coaching, performance management, and career development — building an environment of clarity, ownership, and high standards
- Partner with Product and stakeholders to translate priorities into realistic plans and clear execution, balancing speed, quality, technical complexity, and business impact
- Stay close to architecture, design, and implementation decisions — supporting strong engineering judgement across the team and maintaining high standards in code quality, testing, and system design
- Support the team in building stable, production-ready systems that scale with demand — driving improvements in observability, performance, resilience, and operational practice
- Work closely with Product, Design, and other Engineering teams to align on priorities, dependencies, and risks — communicating clearly and driving decisions in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
- Help the team make good decisions about sequencing, trade-offs, and technical debt — surfacing delivery risks early and keeping execution on track
- Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and team design — identifying capability gaps and ensuring new joiners are set up to succeed
- Continuously improve team processes, planning, and engineering workflows — and reinforce a culture of ownership, trust, accountability, and constructive challenge
Requirements:
- Proven experience leading and developing software engineers in a people management capacity — coaching, feedback, performance management, and career development
- Strong track record delivering production software through engineering teams, with the ability to balance execution, quality, technical debt, and business priorities
- Solid technical background in software engineering, platform engineering, or backend systems — enough depth to contribute meaningfully to architecture discussions and technical direction
- Experience leading teams working on cloud platforms, infrastructure products, or technically complex B2B software
- Strong understanding of modern software development practices — backend services, APIs, testing, CI/CD, containers, Kubernetes, and Docker
- Experience working closely with Product and cross-functional stakeholders in environments where requirements evolve quickly
- Strong communication skills — able to align stakeholders, manage expectations, and communicate risks, trade-offs, and progress clearly.
Benefits:
- Competitive salary and annual discretionary bonus scheme
- Employee wellbeing benefits
- 25 days of holiday, plus public holidays
- Flexible working arrangements (remote or hybrid, depending on role and location)
- Real ownership and autonomy, with the trust to take initiative and experiment
- The opportunity to make a visible, meaningful impact as we scale
- Clear career progression and growth opportunities in a fast-growing company
- A collaborative, international culture built on trust, transparency, and ownership
- The chance to help shape NexGen Cloud's team, culture, and future alongside ambitious, mission-driven colleagues
