Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. AxisCare is hiring a full-time, fully remote Software Engineering Manager to build and lead high-performing engineering teams and to help us reimagine how software teams work in the age of AI. The role involves fostering an environment for engineers to thrive and succeed while leveraging AI tools to enhance productivity and innovation.
Responsibilities
- Own the day-to-day health of your teams. Help engineers develop great daily habits, strong communication, and reach the next level, including helping them grow from engineers who only write code into engineers who direct AI effectively
- Partner with product and design counterparts to quickly get from "important customer problem" to "working software," favoring rapid iteration over upfront resolution of every ambiguity. Partner with staff engineers on technical direction, code design, and systems thinking
- Set a high standard of excellence and lead by example, including in how you and your team adopt AI tools and rethink your workflows. If you're asking your engineers to embrace this shift, you'd better be living it yourself. Stay hands-on by running spikes, prototyping, and exploring ideas your team hasn't had time to chase, without taking on critical-path work
- Coach engineers to use AI as a core part of how they build: when to trust the output, when to throw it out, and how to maintain code quality when the machine is doing the typing. Teach them to fish rather than doing it for them
- Challenge your team's assumptions about how software gets made. Question old habits inherited from the era of scarce coding time (exhaustive PRDs, excessive backlog refinement, premature mockup fidelity, story-point ceremony) and encourage cheaper, faster paths to working software
- Create an environment where engineers think about the whole problem, not just the code: understanding customer needs, system dynamics, and what it takes to run software reliably in production. AI makes it dangerously easy to build the wrong thing quickly, so clear thinking about what to build matters more than ever
Skills
- Track record managing software engineers on teams building full stack web applications
- Demonstrated, substantive use of AI development tools in your own work, not just encouraging your team to use them
- Able to work remotely from the Eastern, Central, or Mountain time zones
- Qualified to work in the United States
- An AI power user with substance and good judgment
- A systems thinker
- A strong writer and compelling storyteller
- A humble, always-a-student approach to management itself
- Technical enough to lead engineers credibly
- Experience building with PHP and React, or closely analogous stacks
- Familiarity building and maintaining HIPAA-compliant software
- A track record of leading teams through significant shifts in tooling or process
- Concrete examples of how you've changed your team's workflows around AI
Benefits
- Medical insurance is covered in full for the employee (Medical, Dental, and Vision)
- Company will provide laptop and other needed computer equipment
