About the Role :

- As an Engineering Manager, you will lead and empower a high-performing team of software engineers responsible for owning the technical development of SailPoint's core product capabilities. In this role, you will champion technical excellence, write and review quality code, debug complex distributed systems issues, and foster a culture of innovation and continuous delivery. You will work in an Agile environment, collaborating closely with US-based teams and stakeholders to build and maintain cloud-native, event-driven microservices on AWS.

Requirements :

- 15+ years of experience in software engineering : Java, with demonstrated experience building, leading, and managing teams of software engineers.

- Strong foundational understanding of software development, particularly in Java, as well as modern front-end architectures.

- Proven track record of success delivering complex software solutions in an Agile development environment.

- Solid foundation in software engineering principles, distributed systems, and cloud architecture (AWS preferred).

- Exceptional leadership, coaching, and mentoring skills with a passion for continuous improvement.

- Strong project management abilities with experience scoping, prioritizing, tracking, and delivering engineering milestones.

- Excellent communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across global time zones.

- Willingness to maintain at least 4 overlapping working hours with US time zones.

AI-assisted engineering :

- Our engineers are expected to use AI development tools as a core part of their daily workflow, not as a novelty. We expect you to use these tools to accelerate delivery, expand your scope, and raise the quality bar, while applying strong engineering judgment to review, validate, and own everything that ships under your name. Comfort with prompting, agentic workflows, and human-in-the-loop review of AI-generated code is a baseline expectation for this role.
