Who we are

At CarGurus (NASDAQ: CARG), our mission is to give people the power to reach their destination. We started as a small team of developers determined to bring trust and transparency to car shopping. Since then, our history of innovation and go-to-market acceleration has driven industry-leading growth. In fact, we’re the largest and fastest-growing automotive marketplace, and we’ve been profitable for over 15 years.

What we do

The market is evolving, and we are too, moving the entire automotive journey online and guiding our customers through every step. That includes everything from the sale of an old car to the financing, purchase, and delivery of a new one. Today, tens of millions of consumers visit CarGurus.com each month, and ~30,000 dealerships use our products. But they're not the only ones who love CarGurus—our employees do, too. We have a people-first culture that fosters kindness, collaboration, and innovation, and empowers our Gurus with tools to fuel their career growth. Disrupting a trillion-dollar industry requires fresh and diverse perspectives. Come join us for the ride!

Role Overview:

As an Engineering Manager on the Consumer Engineering Team, you will play a pivotal role in developing and leading a team of talented engineers focused on building, shipping, and iterating on high-quality products at scale in a fast-paced, data-driven environment. In this role, you will embody our Leadership Capabilities by maintaining a focus on customer impact, fostering open communication and cross-team collaboration, and embracing an iterative approach to both product development and team management. 

What You’ll Do:

Leadership: We’re seeking an individual who embodies CarGurus’ Leadership Principles to build a culture where inclusiveness is a reflex, not an initiative. We envision a workplace where everyone feels they can bring the ultimate expression of themselves and their potential to work every day – where they don’t just fit, they thrive.

  • Lead yourself: Our leaders are intentional about how they show up, manage themselves, and take ownership for their decisions and the impact they have on others.
  • Create a shared purpose: Our leaders tap into motivation by aligning people around a common purpose. They connect strategy and success by focusing their teams on clear objectives and helping people understand how their individual roles impact our collective mission.
  • Inspire ownership and accountability: Our leaders create a shared commitment to success and therefore a mutual accountability for results. They enable and empower others, but know when to roll up their sleeves and provide support. The best leaders develop more leaders.
  • Communicate openly: Our leaders communicate proactively and clearly about goals, challenges, and opportunities. They listen with the intent to understand. They seek opportunities to collaborate across the business.
  • Invest in growth: Our leaders embody a growth mentality. They challenge themselves and their teams to be curious and actively seek opportunities for learning and improvement, even when it’s uncomfortable.
  • Cultivate environments of respect and trust: Our leaders care about people. They value varied perspectives and are committed to building a culture where everyone can show up as themselves and do their best work together!

Influencing and inspiring engineers will be paramount in the success of this role. You will facilitate cross-team collaboration and will use your leadership expertise to drive groups with disparate interests to decisions, seeing these through to impact. You will make pragmatic decisions, balancing strategic and tactical needs. You will help Senior Leadership manage engineering risk and make sure we are making the right trade-off calls.

Technical Expertise: This is a coaching and leading role in which you will be an important influence to core projects and experimental work. When presented with a complex problem, process, or existing system, you can reduce its complexity to get more done with less work. You will collaborate with tech leads and engineers throughout the organization to provide technical guidance. Your technical guidance will mean team members working with you will feel like they are going to leave with something significantly better than they arrived with and will have learned something along the way.

  • Lead whiteboard sessions and architecture design conversations while engineering a solution to the challenges at hand
  • Ensure your team writes clean, well-tested, and efficient code
  • Collaborate with product management, data analysts and other engineers to identify and scope opportunities
  • Contribute to roadmap definition
  • Make data driven decisions
  • Monitor and improve upon the performance of products and solutions
  • Be an owner of critical pieces of software

Who You Are:

  • 6+ years of product software development experience
  • 2+ years of experience managing software development teams
  • Previous fullstack B2C or other consumer-facing experience
  • Expertise with Java or similar object-oriented languages
  • Strong understanding of MySQL or similar relational databases
  • Strong software architecture skills with the ability to thoughtfully make tradeoffs between development speed and overall quality
  • Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to mentor, collaborate with, and lead software engineers
  • Excellent collaborator with proven experience working in a cross-functional team including Product, Design, and Analytics
  • Excellent communicator who can tailor messaging based on audience, which can range from junior engineers to senior business leaders to third-party vendors
  • Strong project management skills, experience with Agile methodologies a plus
  • Detail oriented leader who makes data driven decisions
  • Experience with JavaScript, React/Redux, or other frontend technologies is a plus
