About minware

Do you have the right skills and experience for this role Read on to find out, and make your application.

minware provides development observability software that helps engineering organizations gain full visibility into their software development process to improve predictability, efficiency, and more.

Kevin Borders founded minware after bootstrapping his previous company to $86m in revenue and selling in 2021, with the idea of helping others benefit from lessons learned growing an engineering team from 0 to 40.

minware is a self-funded seed-stage company. After promising initial customer traction, we are looking for people who share our values to help bring minware to a larger audience.

The Role

As an early employee, you will have the unique opportunity to work directly with minware’s founders and engineers to build the product from the ground up.

We are looking for someone who has strong interpersonal skills, high empathy, and a solid understanding of software development processes and modern full-stack technology.

We are seeking an ambitious and nice engineering manager who has experience leading teams that build scalable, maintainable software.

As a purveyor of developer productivity software, we are diligent about process efficiency and code quality. Though we are small, we try to avoid unnecessarily creating technical debt and are looking for someone who can lead us toward this goal.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Manage a team of several developers working on minware’s core application.
  • Provide career guidance and conduct performance reviews for engineers.
  • Conduct interviews and play an active role in growing the team.
  • Review code, participate in sprint meetings, and provide guidance to ensure that engineers are meeting product and technical requirements.
  • This is a player / coach role, so you will spend part of your time working on development tasks as part of the team.
  • Work closely with product managers and customers to define minware’s capabilities.
  • Design and architect new system components.
  • Manage a backlog of tech debt reduction and internal efficiency improvements.

Qualifications

  • Previous experience managing and recruiting other software engineers
  • Experience hands-on experience building and maintaining a complex back end application
  • Strong communication skills for interfacing with non-technical stakeholders and occasionally with customers
  • Familiarity with principles of high-quality code, including continuous integration, declarative and functional programming
  • Well-versed in agile or lean planning and project management processes

Benefits and Perks

  • Competitive base salary, bonus, and seed-stage equity compensation
  • 100% remote work, flexible hours, and unlimited vacation policy. (Read here about how we built trust in our previous all-remote company.)
  • Full health care premium coverage for you and your family
  • Unique career development guidance reporting working on a small team.
