We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to join our Global Football and Rugby (GFR) division, overseeing teams dedicated to Statsbomb—the flagship product for global football analytics at Hudl. You’ll lead two squads, including Yellow Brick Road and Parachute, to help us increase market share and deliver game-changing features to the world’s top football clubs.
As an Engineering Manager, you’ll:
- Lead with technical excellence. You’ll work closely with engineers to ensure we’re building high-quality, scalable software the right way, being involved in architecture and system design.
- Drive product delivery. You’ll partner with senior product managers and QA to understand business value, negotiate trade-offs, and oversee the successful shipment of new features in a fast-paced environment.
- Empower your team. You’ll manage approximately eight engineers across two squads, focusing on their growth and wellness while building a high-performing, healthy team culture.
- Champion innovation. We’re heavily invested in an AI-first mindset, and you’ll encourage your team to use AI tools and modern tech to stay ahead of the curve.
For this role, we're currently considering candidates who live within a commuting distance of our office in London. But with our flexible work policy, there aren't any current requirements for the number of days you come to the office.
Must-Haves
- Experienced. You have 5+ years of experience in engineering management, ideally with a background as an individual contributor or tech lead.
- Technically grounded. You have a strong technical background and are comfortable architecting complex software, specifically using C#, TypeScript, AWS, and Postgres.
- Product-minded. You have experience building customer-facing products rather than just internal platforms or infrastructure.
- Credible engineering leader. You can build immediate trust with engineers through your technical knowledge, helping them navigate complex paths and system designs.
- Forward-thinking. You’re comfortable using AI to improve workflows and are excited to help your team adopt new technologies.
Nice-to-Haves
- Broad tech stack. Experience with additional languages or tools beyond our core stack is valued.
- Domain passion. An interest in football analytics and working with products that serve elite clubs like Manchester City F.C. and Liverpool F.C.
Our Role
- Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time above any required statutory leave, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
- Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
- Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
- Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech you need to do your best work.
- Support your wellbeing. Depending on location, we offer medical and retirement benefits for employees—but no matter where you’re located, we have resources like our Employee Assistance Program and employee resource groups to support your mental health.
