YOUR ROLE
Engineering Managers work as part of a cross-functional product team to build & launch products that remove the friction from commercial insurance. You'll lead and manage a team of first class software developers that will rely on you to ensure their decisions and work have the full support of the company. Your team builds and operates AI-enabled systems, including an agentic chat experience running against real submission and policy data. You'll own their quality, cost, and reliability in production. Your users will be small business owners who will use your work to understand, compare, and buy the commercial insurance their business needs. This is a self-serve purchase experience, and conversion is the measure of whether it works.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own what the team ships, including deciding what gets built when priorities are not handed down.
Be a hands-on leader who can write & test code, review features, and direct the technical activities for 4-10 other engineers.
Operate with ambiguity. Requirements will be unclear and scope will change, and you'll make calls before all the data arrives.
Lead and participate in code and architecture reviews.
Own the agent in production: task completion, safe failure, escalation to a human, and cost and latency across the full multi-call pipeline.
Set the autonomy boundaries. Decide what the agent does unattended and what requires a human in the loop, and be accountable for where you drew the line.
