Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to own engineering execution across multiple product teams contributing to a shared platform. You will drive engineering excellence, foster a culture of collaboration, and guide your teams in building cutting-edge solutions. A critical dimension of this role is enabling your teams to work in an AI-native way - establishing processes, tooling, and training so that engineers increasingly leverage AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, etc) as their primary development instruments. You must understand AI-augmented engineering deeply enough to set your teams up for success. This is not a pure people-management role - we need someone who can get their hands dirty with architecture decisions, debug production issues, and jump into code when the situation demands it.

Key Responsibilities and Duties:

Multi-team leadership: Own engineering execution across several product teams contributing to a shared platform. Align priorities, resolve cross-team dependencies, and ensure consistent engineering standards

AI-native engineering adoption: Improve and roll out processes for specification-driven, agent-augmented development workflows. Amend standards for context engineering and AI-assisted code review. Track adoption metrics and identify where additional support is needed

Tooling and enablement: Evaluate, select, and provision AI coding tools for the teams. Manage tool budgets, token usage, and ensure engineers have the best available AI development environments

Training and upskilling: Design and run training programs that help engineers transition from traditional to AI-augmented development methods

Integration architecture: Contribute to system boundary definitions, API contracts, and integration architecture across platform components. Ensure teams build cohesive, interoperable services

Hiring and team building: Drive the engineer hiring process in alignment with budget. Manage onboarding and performance evaluation of both internal and outsourced engineers

Capacity planning: Own engineering capacity planning - forecast resource needs, adjust team composition to product priorities, and balance workload across teams

• Establish and enforce development best practices, including quality gates for AI-generated code (verification, testing, review standards)

• Monitor engineering KPIs - including AI adoption and delivery velocity metrics - optimize processes, and drive improvements in product quality and team efficiency

Requirements

Experience: 7+ years of software development experience, with 3+ years leading cross-functional teams of 6+ members. Experience managing multiple teams or products simultaneously

Leadership: Proven track record of managing and mentoring engineering teams, driving hiring, onboarding, and performance management for both in-house and outsourced engineers

AI-Augmented Engineering Awareness: Understanding of how AI coding agents change engineering workflows. You don’t need to be a daily power-user, but must understand specification-driven development, context engineering, and agent-assisted delivery well enough to set standards, evaluate output, and coach your teams

Technical depth: Strong hands-on background in Python, Django, TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL. Able to contribute to architecture decisions, review technical designs, and step into code when needed

Architecture & Process: Proficient in system design, integration architecture, and API boundary definition. Solid experience with Agile frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, and DevOps practices

Capacity and resource planning: Experience with engineering capacity planning, budget-aligned hiring, and adjusting team composition to evolving product needs

Communication: Fluent in English. Able to act as liaison between engineering, product, design, and other departments. Strong written and verbal communication skills

Benefits

We believe great work starts with feeling valued and supported. That’s why we are building an thoughtful, competitive benefits and perks to help you thrive — professionally and personally — through every step of your Career with us. You will be eligible for:

About Aerones

Aerones is an innovative company that has developed robotic technology for wind turbine blade maintenance services, such as:

• Conductivity measurements and trouble-shooting;

• Drainage hole cleaning;

• External inspection of the wind turbine blades;

• Internal inspection of the blades;

• Blade & Tower cleaning;

• Coating application on the leading edges;

• Leading-edge repair.

The technology in use is controlled remotely. In addition, it is compact and easily transportable.

Aerones is the first company in the world to provide the services using robotic technology: the maintenance process does not require technicians to work in dangerous heights, and thus is much safer, more efficient, and the downtime of the turbines is decreased significantly.
