About the role

We're hiring an Engineering Manager to lead people, delivery, and direction for one or more engineering pods at Digible. The defining trait we're looking for is the ability to get things unstuck while developing the people doing the work. When a team stalls, whether because of an unowned dependency, an ownership gap, or a technical blocker that's lingered too long, this person doesn't route around it. They step in, get the right people aligned, diagnose what's actually stuck, define a clear path forward, and move the team through it. Just as importantly, they follow through with reflection: what happened, what the team needs to learn, and how we handle it better next time. Running in parallel is the second responsibility: building team capacity. The progression is intentional, from starting in the trenches, to enabling from the side, to ultimately coaching from a distance. The goal is to make yourself unnecessary for the things you were essential to last quarter. This role sits squarely in "Fiona 2.0" territory. Our most critical near-term work spans reporting, the data platform, integrations, and client-facing systems across multiple pods. The complexity is real, not just technically, with platform dependencies, data architecture, and cross-system integrations, but also organizationally and commercially, with competing priorities, client commitments, and stakeholders who define done differently. Coding isn't the primary function. But when progress requires it, you can sit down with an engineer and work through the problem together. You don't own deliverables or sit on the critical path. You enable the team to move faster and better without you. You'll report to the Director of Engineering and work closely with Product, Data, and Agency Operations. You'll love this job if: You get genuine satisfaction from getting things unstuck, not from managing a process around stuck work Coaching is more satisfying than doing. Your measure of success is a team that no longer needs you for what it relied on you for last quarter When people look at each other without a clear next step, you feel the pull to name one. Not because you always have the answer, but because even imperfect direction unblocks a room You diagnose before you prescribe. You want to understand why the team is not delivering before reaching for a framework You build process to fit the team, not force the team to fit the process You do not stop at the pod boundary. If what your team needs lives elsewhere, you go get it You think product-first. You start with the customer problem, make tradeoffs, and partner with product as a peer You use AI naturally in your work, not as a novelty but because it has changed how you think about what is possible. You help teams adopt it without making it a mandate You can hold two time horizons at once, what needs to happen today and what needs to be different in six months You operate comfortably at the business and technical intersection. You can navigate a commercial constraint and a platform dependency in the same conversation without losing either thread You get real satisfaction from creating clarity where there is none, not from executing someone else's plan

Responsibilities

  • Unblock and enable
  • When teams stall, step in and move things forward. Pair with an engineer on a technical blocker, connect directly with a dependency team, or name the trade-off others are avoiding. Do whatever is required to restore momentum
  • After unblocking, debrief. Understand what happened, what the team needs
