We are partnering with a global healthcare leader looking to scale their core engineering function and build up their leadership layer. We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to take ownership of their flagship customer-facing mobile application.
You won't be writing code day-to-day, but a strong background as a hands-on mobile engineer is essential to guide architecture and lead high-performing teams effectively. In your first 90 days, you will manage an incumbent consulting squad while actively recruiting, hiring, and mentoring your permanent internal team - scaling a squad of senior, mid-level, and graduate engineers.
