Apply by showcasing impact, cross functional wins, and a clear alignment with Tracksuit values, learning and growth opportunities, and your ability to contribute onsite in Sydney.

At Tracksuit we provide beautiful, radically affordable, always-on brand tracking which is easy to use compared to traditional methods.

Are you our next Engineering Manager?

We’re looking for an Engineering Managers to join our new AI Visibility Team at Tracksuit in Sydney.

We’re working towards bringing in sentiment from AI chatbots and APIs to enrich our existing view on brand sentiment, which has historically been based on human survey data.

You’ll be leading a strong team of three Senior Engineers in our sixth newly created team.

We're looking for an Engineering Manager that is:

• Experienced technical leader: Someone who is an engineer, with experience across a range of technologies. These might include: React, NodeJS, Typescript, Java, Python, Postgres, CDK, and AWS (or another cloud provider) across different projects. You’ll have experience in designing, building, deploying and operating complex applications.
• Entrepreneurial and product-focused: Someone who can think holistically and commercially: who takes an interest in the wider business. You’ll be able to collaborate with product managers, designers, and customers, as well as have the ability to focus on business outcomes and engage in discovery, not just implementation.
• Experimental: Someone comfortable testing and iterating on ideas using a structured approach. You’ll have demonstrated experience assessing multiple solutions for a problem with various implementation approaches, and you’ll be data driven to guide your recommendations.
• Curious and a leader: You’ll be curious to discover new opportunities, grasp new technologies, and figure out whatever you need to drive growth. You’ll be a leader for other engineers in the team and be able to support and drive a team technically and commercially; You’ll have experience in coaching developing, and managing engineers, as well as having demonstrated ability to prioritise work.
• Kind: This is such a collaborative role that we ultimately want a great, collaborative and supportive team player.

We think this role is exciting because:

• You’ll have ownership over decisions to design the technical solutions that work: You’ll be responsible for architecting and designing scalable, reliable, and secure systems.
• You’ll be able to think entrepreneurially, focused on business outcomes: You’re not just shipping features. You’re working in team to drive acquisition and activation. That means you get to create a strategy, think holistically, and do whatever is needed to drive an outcome.
• You get to be experimental: designing experiments, trying new approaches to solve problems, talking to customers, doing discovery, sitting alongside product and design, and implementing solutions.
• We don’t have a roadmap dictated to us: you’ll have high-level business goals and outcomes, but it’s up to you to define the problems and solutions.
