This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an Engineering Manager, Customer Trust based in Canada.
This full-time, remote leadership role sits within a high-visibility product area focused on helping organizations build and demonstrate customer trust.
You’ll lead two engineering squads with a combined team of 11 engineers, overseeing products that automate security assessments and enable transparent trust communication.
The role is strongly execution-oriented, with established product-market fit and clear roadmaps that require disciplined, high-quality delivery.
You’ll partner closely with product and design to shape priorities, make tradeoffs, and ensure engineering plays an active role in product decisions.
You’ll remain technically engaged through architecture discussions, technical specifications, and engineering decision-making without being expected to write all the code yourself.
Beyond delivery, you’ll develop and retain high-performing engineers while helping strengthen engineering practices and culture across the organization.

- Shape product direction: Partner closely with product and design leaders to define priorities, evaluate tradeoffs, and ensure engineering contributes meaningfully to decisions about what gets built and why.
- Provide technical leadership: Engage in architecture discussions, critically review technical specifications, and guide engineers toward sound technical decisions without needing to personally implement every solution.
- Develop engineering talent: Attract, develop, support, and retain strong engineers, with particular emphasis on managing and growing senior individual contributors.

- People leadership: Proven experience managing, mentoring, and developing senior individual contributors and creating an environment where engineers can perform at their best.
- Product engineering background: Experience leading teams that build customer-facing software, rather than primarily infrastructure or platform-focused products.
- Technical expertise: Strong technical judgment and comfort participating in architecture discussions, reviewing technical specifications, and making informed engineering tradeoffs.
- Product and technical strategy: Ability to shape product direction and long-term technical strategy in close partnership with product management.
- Decision-making: Strong judgment and decision-making skills, with the ability to balance ambiguity, available data, speed, quality, and business priorities.
- AI fluency: Regularly uses AI in day-to-day work to amplify capabilities and improve outcomes, while actively developing AI fluency through experimentation and applying sound judgment to maintain a high quality standard.
- Communication and collaboration: Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work effectively across engineering, product, design, go-to-market, and other business functions.
- Leadership mindset: Ability to foster a culture of ownership, accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and sustainable performance.
