Senior News Engineering Manager
Senior Engineering Manager — News Engineering @ LSEG
Help us shape the future of real-time news delivery and join a team powering the heartbeat of global information!
LSEG’s News Engineering group is looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to evolve our News platform, delivering enriched, structured breaking news with metadata, entities, and context to customers worldwide in sub-second time. If you're motivated by high-performance systems, real-world impact, and incorporating modern engineering practices in a dynamic and forward-thinking environment—this is your opportunity.
This role is ideal for an experienced engineering manager who combines strong people leadership, hands-on technical credibility, and sound execution judgment. You will partner closely with product, architecture, and other engineering leaders to deliver reliable outcomes while evolving a content- and data-driven news platform sustainably.
About the Role
As a senior engineering manager in the News team at LSEG, you will be accountable for:
- Delivery, quality, reliability, and operational outcomes across one or more News Engineering squads, focusing on content enrichment and real-time delivery.
- Hiring, onboarding, and developing engineers at varying levels, building high-performing, inclusive teams.
- Coaching technical talent through regular feedback, career development, and performance management, fostering a culture of ownership, accountability, learning, and continuous improvement.
- Creating an environment where on-call and operational responsibilities are sustainable, well-engineered, and not hero-driven.
- Hands-on technical leadership in design and problem-solving, guiding implementation decisions without being the primary implementer.
- Reviewing and challenging designs to ensure that performance, reliability, correctness, and operability standards meet expectations—especially for content processing and NLP-driven enrichment systems.
- Ensuring teams apply modern engineering practices, including:
- Automated testing of NLP pipelines
- Observability of data quality and model behavior
- CI/CD for both code and content processing
- Guiding the effective, responsible use of AI-assisted development and content intelligence tools to improve productivity and code quality.
