About This Role

Overview

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company.

We are currently looking for an Engineering Manager - Partners in United Arab Emirates.

As an Engineering Manager - Partners, you will lead a high-impact engineering organization responsible for building and scaling a platform ecosystem used by external developers and technology partners.

This role combines people leadership, technical oversight, and strategic execution across developer-facing products, integration frameworks, and partner enablement tools.

You will work closely with Product and Engineering leadership to define priorities, drive delivery, and ensure a high standard of quality across a broad and technically complex platform.

The position requires balancing engineering excellence with business outcomes while fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

You will have a direct influence on the developer experience, platform scalability, and long-term ecosystem growth.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced engineering leader who thrives in fast-paced, remote-first environments and enjoys building products that empower other businesses to succeed.

Accountabilities

  • Lead and oversee multiple engineering teams responsible for partner-facing products, integration frameworks, developer tools, and ecosystem services
  • Drive end-to-end delivery, ensuring high standards of quality, reliability, scalability, and execution across all initiatives
  • Coach, mentor, and develop engineers through performance management, career growth planning, and continuous feedback
  • Provide technical leadership by reviewing architecture decisions, evaluating trade-offs, and supporting sound engineering practices
  • Champion developer experience by ensuring stable APIs, clear documentation, reliable integrations, and thoughtful platform design
  • Partner closely with Product teams to shape roadmaps, manage priorities, identify risks, and maintain realistic delivery commitments
  • Promote operational excellence through monitoring, incident management, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Build and scale high-performing engineering teams through hiring, onboarding, and talent development
  • Foster collaboration across engineering functions while maintaining alignment on technical vision and business objectives
  • Support the evolution of platform capabilities that enable long-term ecosystem growth and partner success

Requirements

  • Proven experience managing software engineering teams with responsibility for delivery, performance, and team development
  • Strong technical background with the ability to evaluate architecture, system design, scalability, and maintainability decisions
  • Experience building and operating developer platforms, APIs, integration frameworks, or ecosystem-based products
  • Ability to lead in highly autonomous environments and effectively navigate ambiguity and changing priorities
  • Strong understanding of software development best practices, operational excellence, and engineering processes
  • Demonstrated success partnering with Product and cross-functional stakeholders to deliver complex technical initiatives
  • Excellent communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills
  • Experience making informed decisions on architecture reviews, technical governance, and engineering standards
  • Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to balance strategic thinking and execution
  • Experience in payments, fintech, marketplaces, or other infrastructure-focused domains is a plus
  • Previous exposure to developer ecosystems or third-party platform integrations is highly desirable

Benefits

  • Fully remote work environment with global collaboration opportunities
  • Competitive compensation package and equity/share options
  • Flexible vacation policy with a minimum encouraged annual leave allocation
  • Access to coworking spaces and remote work support
  • Annual company retreats, workations, and team-building events
  • Home office setup allowance and premium equipment provided
  • Generous learning and professional development budget
  • Private medical insurance and healthcare support
  • Additional location-specific perks and employee benefits
  • Opportunity to work on innovative, large-scale technology platforms with global impact
