Engineering Manager, Platform & Applications chez Windfalldata

Windfall is seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead and grow our backend engineering teams across both our Platform and Application layers. You will guide a talented team of 7, composed primarily of senior engineers, with plans to grow to 10 in the near future. This group is the brain of our customer interactions; you'll be instrumental in mentoring them while overseeing the architecture for everything from our scalable data-ingestion systems to our AI-powered customer applications. In this highly collaborative role, you'll work closely with product, data science, and other engineering teams to build robust, high-performance solutions from inception to production. We are on a mission to change how organizations perceive and use people data. And we hold true to our core values of: (1) Be an excellent communicator; (2) Operate with transparency; (3) Provide leverage, not optimization; (4) Make a difference every day; and (5) Act with integrity and trust.

At least 2-3 years in a dedicated Engineering Management role, as part of 8+ years of progressive software engineering experience.

Technical Breadth & Expertise

Broad technical knowledge with experience managing full-stack teams responsible for both backend services (Platform) and user-facing applications (Application).

Expert-level understanding of object-oriented programming, particularly with Java, as it is the core of our backend stack.

Proven experience with the architecture and maintenance of large-scale, high-performance distributed systems.

Familiarity with our technology stack is a plus: GCP, Python/Kotlin, BigQuery/Postgres, Dataflow/Spark, and Airflow.

Cultural & Operational Skills

Experience in a fast-paced, sub-200 person startup environment.

Strong communication skills, with a proven ability to simplify complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
