Engineering Manager - Core Domain

Hello! 👋🏽

At Factorial we're looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager to help us take our Documents team to the next level and who likes to make a real impact by working close to the business.

Ready to be part of the challenge? 🚀

Documents Team 🦸🏼‍♂️

The Documents team's mission is to provide companies with the document management system they need to streamline all paperwork most efficiently and help them save time to invest it in other higher-value activities.

Sitting within the 🌋 Core Group, you lay the foundations for external and internal users to extract and deliver value from our platform. The role requires full ownership of your area, a self-starter attitude, dealing with uncertainty and combining a strategic product mindset with a focus on execution and urgency. If you feel as if you belong in a product-first company, want to work with a world-class team of designers and developers, and deliver the future of B2B software, we should talk!

The Engineering team at large

At Factorial, we have a team of +150 very talented fullstack developers. We look for smart people who are curious, proactive and have good soft/communication skills.

We are not looking for a long list of skills and technologies. Our stack is Ruby on Rails for the backend and React/React-native for the clients, but it’s not mandatory to be proficient in those to be considered (most of the team came with other areas of expertise which is very enriching). We believe that someone who has good aptitudes and is hungry for learning is what works best.

The hiring process

• A second conversation with the team’s engineering director. Similarly to the first one, this is about making sure you are a fit and can work together.
• A tech interview with 3 Factorial engineers: that’s a conversation about technology, not an exam or a code review. We’ll ask you to send us a piece of code you’ve written recently and you’re happy with, to use as a basis for the conversation. If you don’t have anything we’ll share some specifications for you to build, but the focus will be on how you think, not the exact code.
• And that’s it! Feel free to request any other conversation you want, with team members or to address specific concerns at any time in the process.

The whole process is remote, using videoconferencing tools!
