Now they need an Engineering Manager to build the high-performing team.

The focus is on turning a team of strong senior ICs into a cohesive, accountable, high-performing unit.
• Own engineering excellence: You'll design lightweight career paths, run coaching 1:1s, and build a culture where risks are surfaced early and delivery is predictable.
• Kill the "zombie projects": Bring discipline to planning. (Remote) Engineering Manager – AI Native Tech Scale-up – Up to £130k (base)
Imagine a world where you can run thousands of simultaneous conversations and instantly transform them into actionable insights for the world's biggest enterprises.
This company has architected a platform that operates at a greater scale, turning human dialogue into a strategic asset. They've closed their Series A, landed major enterprise customers, and solved the "can-it-be-done" problems.
Know when to reset, when to rescope, and how to avoid projects lingering for months without launch.
• Champion AI-first ways of working: Use AI as a force-multiplier in your people management—and encourage your engineers to do the same in their dev workflows.
"The toolkit you'll bring…"
• A proven EM: You've managed engineers before—this isn't your first rodeo.
You're ready to hit the ground running on people topics from day one.
• Technically literate: You don't need to code, but you can hold your own on real-time systems, WebRTC, and architectural trade-offs.
• Startup-proof: You thrive in ambiguity.
No "big-company process" crutches—just pragmatic, lean systems that enable speed.
• AI-curious: You're already thinking about how AI changes management and development, and you're eager to experiment.
• Zero ego: You'll collaborate with product, design, and the founders to drive growth—not just engineering roadmaps.
