Summary Generated by Built In
Articulate is looking for an Engineering Manager to join our Growth Team! As an engineering manager, you’ll lead a team of 4–6 engineers focused on accelerating how customers discover, adopt, and expand their use of Articulate products. Comfort with management practices, strong collaboration skills, and data fluency are key in this role. As a leader, you’ll be accountable for your team shipping reliable, scalable features and experiments that drive product-led growth.
You may spend less time writing code, but there is an expectation to still engage in technical work such as feature development, bug fixes, and maintenance—always with the goal of improving your team’s productivity over your own output. More than writing code, you’ll hold responsibility for identifying bottlenecks in the process and unblocking these roadblocks to ensure team success.
What you'll do:
- Partner with Product and Design to refine growth opportunities into well-scoped experiments and features, then lead the engineering team in executing and learning from them.
- Lead by example by contributing to critical PRs, prototypes, A/B tests, and production debugging. Uphold high design and review standards.
- Ensure experiments and features are instrumented for measurement, partnering with Analytics to interpret results and apply learnings.
- Dig into product and customer data to validate ideas, understand user behavior, and identify new opportunities.
- Effectively manage the team’s roadmap, delegate ownership with clear decision boundaries, and hold the team accountable for quality, timelines, and outcomes. Provide transparent updates to partners along the way.
- Coach, hire, and retain a high-performing, diverse engineering team. Run weekly 1:1s, provide actionable feedback, and foster career growth.
- Partner with other engineering teams, peer EMs, and cross-functional leaders to deliver cross-team initiatives, while evolving practices, raising the hiring bar, and sharing best practices.
- Optimize processes and remove impediments to sustain velocity, quality, and reliability.
- Support partner teams in triaging and resolving production issues, including participating in on-call rotation.
What you should have:
- Demonstrated success delivering growth-focused product features and experiments that drove measurable impact on acquisition, activation, retention, or expansion.
- Ability to work with data at multiple levels: partner effectively with Analytics to frame hypotheses and interpret results, and dig in directly with SQL or logs when needed.
- Hands-on experience with TypeScript, React, and Node.js in the context of delivering scalable, user-facing applications.
- 3+ years of engineering management experience leading high-functioning teams, with a track record of coaching across levels, giving direct and empathetic feedback, addressing underperformance, and supporting growth through fair, evidence-based promotions.
- Strong computer science fundamentals applied at scale, backed by a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field—or equivalent practical experience.
- Excellent communication skills, translating complex technical concepts to cross-functional partners and leading difficult conversations constructively.
- Enthusiasm for experimentation, data-informed decision making, and building products that drive meaningful customer and business outcomes.
Nice to haves
- Experience working in a B2B or B2C SaaS context, ideally with exposure to enterprise and expansion motions.
- Familiarity with experimentation platforms, analytics tools, or growth-focused development practices.
- Experience leading projects where hypotheses were tested through rapid iteration, experimentation frameworks, or funnel optimization.
- Experience applying AI or machine learning in a growth context.
