Engineering Manager
Vonage is the emerging leader in the $100B+ cloud communications platform (CPaaS) market. Customers like Airbnb, Viber, Whatsapp, Snapchat, and many others depend on our APIs and SDKs to connect with their customers all over the world.
Why this role matters:
We are looking for a Software Engineering Manager to lead one of our engineering tribes, made up of multiple squads. In this role, you’ll provide leadership across the full development lifecycle, ensuring the delivery of high-quality products and services. You’ll partner closely with the Director of Engineering as a trusted advisor, contributing to the ongoing transformation of the organisation.
You’ll lead a team responsible for the systems at the heart of our CPaaS platform—services that power all our API products and process high volumes of data. The work spans both legacy systems and greenfield projects, presenting a unique blend of technical challenges and design opportunities.
Your key responsibilities:
Take a value-driven, principle-based approach over rigid or dogmatic practices.
Contribute to architecture discussions, bringing both technical depth and collaborative problem-solving skills.
Lead a core team of engineers with a people-first approach, fostering growth, collaboration, and high performance.
Drive improvements across the wider organisation, beyond your team’s immediate responsibilities.
Be a strong advocate for DevOps, agile and lean software development practices.
A drive to always leave things better than how you found them: Code, processes, documentation, interactions with people and every other aspect of your work life.
What you'll bring:
Hands-on Coding Experience- At Vonage, our managers are technical leaders who can both write and review code fluently.
Agile and Software Delivery- You are comfortable working within Agile methodologies and have a strong understanding of software delivery practices.
You understand architecture and can take part in discussions
Technical Experience:
At least one of Java, Golang, Kotlin, Python or a similar programming language
Cloud infrastructure experience (AWS preferred)
Mapping of platform architectures
System design
Strong understanding of security best practices
Kubernetes or a similar container orchestrator
Kafka or similar event bus technology
Database architecture #LI-JM1
