Position Summary

Have you led a team without giving up the parts of engineering you like most? We're looking for an Engineering Manager who also excels as a builder: someone who notices patterns that lead to better design, abstractions, and technical direction to elevate the entire team, while sitting down to ship a feature when needed.

This role owns integrations that enable Mashgin's kiosks to operate as point-of-sale devices. That means the software running on our kiosks, the services behind them, and the customer-facing features that 40 million people touch. You'll work directly with the founders on what gets built, set technical direction for your area, and be accountable for both the quality of the work and the growth of the people doing it. We expect you to spend roughly a third to half your time hands-on.

A note on titles, since it looks unusual from the outside. Every engineer at Mashgin carries the title Member of Technical Staff. We keep the org flat on purpose, and we don't use levels to decide whose ideas carry weight. Managing here doesn't mean sitting above that structure; it means holding a team's direction, hiring, and growth while remaining one of the engineers building the product. If you're looking for a role where management is the reward for no longer coding, this isn't it.

What We Value:

Impact: You will own significant responsibility and have total ownership over your work. We stay lean and efficient, so your work directly impacts the product we ship every day.
Simplicity: Complexity is a waste of time here—we take pride in building things that just work.
Hard Work: Forget the glamorous research papers. We prioritize the hard work it takes to achieve real-world clarity and accuracy. You will innovate relentlessly to push the boundaries of what’s possible in visual automation.
Humility: No task is beneath you. Whether it's high-level architecture or grunt work to fix a bug, we check our egos at the door and get real work done.
Ruthless Prioritization: If everything is on fire, nothing is. You will be expected to prioritize ruthlessly, cutting through distractions to focus on the most impactful product improvements.
Customer Innovation: We are customer-centric, not customer-pleasing. You won’t bend to every client demand; you will let innovation drive the product forward to solve the real problems our users face.
Efficiency: Meetings suck. We keep them short and only use them for alignment, giving you your time back to focus on real work.
