About the role
As an Engineering Manager I at Ophelia, you’ll play a key role in developing innovative, compliant solutions to support our mission of treating opioid use disorder through telehealth. You'll be a hands-on technical leader and manage a team of 2-5 full-stack software engineers who build and maintain our core web applications written in Typescript, React, and Firebase on GCP. The estimated split between hands-on code and leadership responsibilities is 50-70% hands-on to 50-30% leadership. You’ll ensure that your team maintains the highest quality standards across all projects, improve code architecture, and foster a culture of creativity, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Your work will have a direct impact on patients, clinicians, and our ability to scale.
In this role, you’ll mentor and develop the engineers on your team, promote a culture of innovation and excellence, and be a tech lead who works side-by-side with them through the full product cycle—from inception to results—making direct code contributions and taking responsibility for your team’s work quality and delivery goals. You’ll collaborate closely with your Product and Design counterparts, as well as various cross-functional teams, including clinicians and non-technical stakeholders, to ensure our products meet the needs of both users and the business. Flexibility will be key, as you will help tackle ambiguous challenges in a fast-evolving, growth-stage company.
Other responsibilities include continuously improving our systems and team processes, while advocating for projects that help improve code architecture, quality, and performance and drive business results, through insightful use of AI technologies and traditional approaches. With support from your Director, peers, and our People team, you’ll manage the performance evaluation of your team members, including promotions, performance improvement plans, and, when necessary, termination. Your role also involves staying up-to-date on emerging industry trends and technologies, including but not limited to AI in our products and development processes, bringing new ideas to drive innovation in product design and development.
