About the Opportunity

Salsify is seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to join our Growth Engineering group to lead an established, high-performing team focused on building products and capabilities that drive customer satisfaction, product-led growth, and business expansion.

In this role, you’ll have a visible impact on both customer value and business outcomes by leading the development of features that meaningfully shape how customers experience the Salsify platform. You’ll bring a strong technical foundation alongside a passion for people leadership, cultivating a highly collaborative environment where engineers can do their best work, grow their careers, and partner effectively with Product Management and User Experience partners.

This is an excellent opportunity for a thoughtful, proactive, hands-on leader to continue growing both their technical depth and leadership impact while partnering with talented, growth-minded engineers.

How You'll Make an Impact

You’ll take strong ownership of problem areas critical to the business, with responsibilities spanning three key areas:

People Leadership & Growth

  • Build and sustain a supportive, high-performance team culture
  • Lead the growth and professional development of a team of talented engineers
  • Provide regular feedback, coaching, mentorship, and career guidance
  • Foster an environment grounded in trust, accountability, and continuous learning

Product Strategy & Execution

  • Partner closely with Product Management, User Experience and engineers to define technical vision and roadmap for a portfolio of products and capabilities
  • Ensure the team has clear direction and context to deliver impactful solutions
  • Guide the design of sound, scalable systems that support both current needs and future growth
  • Own delivery excellence for the team’s roadmap commitments

Operational Excellence & Engineering Best Practices

  • Ensure the stability, performance, and reliability of the systems developed by your team
  • Promote and uphold modern engineering best practices, including code quality, testing, observability, and architectural standards
  • Champion the thoughtful adoption of new technologies, including AI, to improve developer efficiency and software quality
You’ll enjoy this role if you have:
  • Bachelor’s degree in a technical field such as computer science, computer engineering or a related field
  • ~7 years of hands-on coding/product delivery experience (this is not a hands-on role but we feel that this background is essential due to the nature of the team), with command of one or more server-side languages (Ruby on Rails preferred) and one or more JavaScript libraries/frameworks (React and Ember preferred)
  • 3+ years of engineering management experience with a team of ~4 or more engineers, providing mentorship, regular feedback, and career development (bonus if you’ve managed a distributed, remote-first team)
  • Strong communication abilities, capable of articulating complex technical topics to both technical and non-technical audiences, including stakeholders in Product and UX.
  • Experience developing and launching AI-driven software solutions
  • Experience designing scalable systems following architecture best practices
  • Familiarity with high-performance, high-throughput, microservices-based applications
  • Experience with modern build, testing tools, and Agile & Scrum methodology
  • Proven ability to excel and drive results in a high-growth and fast-paced environment
At Salsify, we maintain 3 core principles as part of our Compensation Philosophy:
  • We pay market rates, which are competitive and equitable
  • We pay based on performance and proficiency, not tenure
  • We adjust proactively; when the market moves, we do too
The posted compensation range reflects the base salary for this position. In addition to base salary, some eligible roles may also have a commission plan or a bonus incentive. All Salsify employees receive equity in the form of stock options. All full-time employees are invited to participate in our Total Rewards plan, which includes health & medical benefits, PTO, and more. Offers to join Salsify are based on a few criteria, including the scope of the role, the candidate’s work experience, targeted skills, internal equity of the team, and external market data.
