Engineering Manager

Breezeway’s award-winning property operations and experience platform helps coordinate, communicate, and verify detailed work at properties.

What We’re Looking For

Breezeway is hiring an Engineering Manager to lead two of the squads building our core product - property operations and guest experience.

You'll be responsible for what these squads ship and for the engineers who build it. You'll partner closely with Product and Design to turn roadmap into delivered work, and with engineering leadership on technical direction. You'll report to the Director of Engineering.

Partner with Product and Design to translate roadmap into clear, executable plans

Provide technical guidance and help your squads make sound architecture and design decisions

Hold a high bar for engineering quality, operational health, and craft
