Our Engineering Management Philosophy
We believe that engineering management is, at its core, an engineering role, and great managers must also be great engineers. A successful engineering manager leads by example and sets a high standard for their team through technical excellence. While they don't need to do everything themselves, they should be ready to get their hands dirty when necessary, but always aiming to cultivate a self-organizing team that performs independently and thrives.
We also value an entrepreneurial mindset in our managers. A great manager focuses on outcomes, delivering solutions that align with our mission while ensuring every investment and use of resources provides measurable ROI. By balancing technical leadership with a strategic vision, our engineering managers play a crucial role in driving Billie's success.

Stay Hands-On: While your primary focus is management, you'll dive into technical details when needed, ensuring your team has the support to tackle challenges effectively.
-
Deliver Results: Maintain a focus on outcomes, ensuring projects deliver meaningful business value and make smart use of resources.
