Ignite Your Future:
As an Engineering Manager at QAD, you will lead an agile engineering team responsible for designing, building, and delivering high‑quality software. You will combine hands‑on technical understanding with people leadership, helping engineers do their best work while delivering meaningful business outcomes.
Active use of AI-native development workflows — Cursor, Claude Code, and CodeRabbit or equivalent — is a baseline requirement, not a nice-to-have. We treat AI augmentation as the standard engineering operating model. Leaders are expected to use these tools personally, set norms for their teams, and demonstrate that AI tooling raises the output of their entire squad. Candidates who view AI tools as optional or experimental are not the right fit for this organization.
The Mission: What You'll Be Building
You will guide a team building features and services across QAD’s adaptive, cloud‑native platform, contributing directly to customer‑facing capabilities and platform foundations.
Lead for the squad owning API Gateway, authentication, and the agent-to-tool interface layer.
Your Impact/ What you will be doing:
Deliver AuthN/AuthZ service, OAuth2/OIDC implementation, rate limiting, and load balancing
Build the MCP Gateway that enables ERA agents to interface with ERP systems and external tools
Own service mesh configuration (Istio or equivalent) and platform on-call reliability
Manage a squad of 6 engineers, including 1× P6 Principal Platform Engineer
