The role: We’re looking for a delivery-focused Senior Engineering Manager to lead a cross-platform team on one of our most critical missions: building our next generation of products using AI and Agentic Workflows.. This team owns our new innovation and growth initiatives—shipping fast, solving real customer pain, and driving new customer acquisition and revenue growth.You’ll have the opportunity to lead a high-visibility team, shape how they operate, and elevate both the product and the people behind it. If you're energized by helping teams level up, improve user workflows, and thrive in fast-moving environments, this is a role where you can make a real difference.
What You'll Do:
- Drive delivery for a focused engineering team, working across multiple platforms and product areas. Partner in a high-trust triad with the team’s Product Manager and Designer to align priorities, unblock progress, and ensure consistent product success.
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of software engineers, understanding their skills and fostering their professional growth to achieve daily tasks and long-term career goals.
- Partner with Product and Design to drive customer growth through new Agentic Workflow products.
- Make continuous improvement a habit—refine team processes and retrospective practices to build team confidence, accountability, and sustainable delivery momentum.
- Identify and reduce silos in product knowledge and technical expertise while navigating day-to-day context switching
- Provide people leadership, technical and delivery coaching, and process support—empowering engineers to do their best work.
- Advocate for team needs with clarity—making tradeoffs visible, managing stakeholder expectations, and ensuring we’re resourced to deliver
- Be the key owner of AI and Agentic Workflow development knowledge within Mediafly

You’ll be successful in this role with:
- Previous experience leading the development of AI and Agentic Workflow based products.

- Enough technical depth to participate in architecture reviews, code discussions, and infrastructure planning—and enough judgment to know when to go deep and when to delegate.
- A strong belief in fast feedback loops: you champion frequent deployments and believe in shipping value regularly.
- A strong delivery and project management mindset; you identify bottlenecks early, prioritize ruthlessly, and bring data to drive decisions and maintain momentum.
- Experience modernizing systems and development workflows—especially around CI/CD pipelines, design systems, and platform architecture.
- The ability to coach engineers across technical and product silos, helping the team align around shared goals and engineering standards.
- A builder's mindset: you’re energized by complex systems, dive deep to solve problems, and scale solutions that improve quality and efficiency.
- Balance of backbone and empathy: you bring accountability and clarity while cultivating trust and psychological safety.
- A track record of hiring and growing high-performing teams.
