Senior Manager, Software Engineering

Role Responsibilities

• Intelligent Site Experience Leadership: Serve as the single-threaded engineering leader owning every customer-facing surface across web and mobile platforms, including operator consoles, admin portals, and site management workflows.
• Product & UI/UX Elevation: Partner closely with Product Management and Product Design (UX/UI) to translate complex operator needs into intuitive, role-aware, consumer-grade interfaces that make LVT’s user experience a primary competitive advantage.
• Agentic Workflows & AI Integration: Oversee the development of seamless, intent-driven interfaces powered by agentic AI workflows, allowing customers to configure, monitor, act on, and document site operations through simple conversational and automated interactions.
• Fullstack Architecture & Scalability: Partner with Principal Engineers and Architects to design, build, and maintain highly scalable, cloud-native backend services and performant frontend architectures capable of processing real-time video and IoT data streams.
• Team Leadership & Talent Development: Lead, coach, and grow high-performing teams of fullstack, frontend, and backend engineers. Build a culture of ownership, grant engineers the scope to operate at their best, and recruit exceptional talent to scale the organization.
• Technical Strategy & Execution: Translate product strategy into technical roadmaps and execution plans, balancing near-term feature delivery with long-term architectural health and scalability.
• Engineering Excellence & Developer Velocity: Champion modern software engineering practices, including automated testing, robust CI/CD pipelines, code reviews, and application performance monitoring, while continually optimizing internal workflows to accelerate delivery cycles.
• Cross-functional Alignment: Partner with Security, Infrastructure, AI/ML, and Hardware teams to ensure cohesive integration across the entire LVT product ecosystem

• Engineering Leadership Experience: 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 4+ years of directly managing and growing fullstack or user-facing product engineering teams in high-growth SaaS environments.
• Product-Minded UI/UX Bar-Raiser: A strong eye for user experience and a proven track record of elevating clunky or data-dense enterprise workflows into seamless, high-performance web and mobile interfaces.
• Fullstack Technical Expertise: Strong technical foundation with modern frontend frameworks (React, TypeScript, Next.js) and robust backend ecosystems (Node.js, Python, Go, GraphQL, REST).
• AI & Agentic Systems Exposure: Experience or strong interest in shipping UI/UX powered by agentic AI workflows, LLM orchestration, or intelligent automation.
• Scalable Cloud & IoT Systems: Proven experience designing and operating highly available cloud-native architectures (preferably AWS) that support high-throughput data, video streaming, or large-scale IoT integrations.
• Talent Builder: Demonstrated success hiring, mentoring, and developing fullstack engineers, fostering a culture of psychological safety, high execution velocity, and continuous learning.
• Strategic Decision Making: Ability to balance commercial and business urgency with technical debt, engineering capacity, and architectural scalability.
• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with real-time video streaming protocols (e.g., WebRTC, HLS) and complex data visualization tools.
• Familiarity with IoT, computer vision, or AI/ML integrations in user-facing web applications.
• Experience in high-growth startup or scale-up environments.
