Senior Software Engineering Manager

Role Overview

Lead a team of 5 (growing to 8) engineers building a high-performance, browser-based CAD experience. Combine technical leadership with deep expertise in frontend architectures, web graphics, and CAD system design challenges.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead design, planning, and delivery of engineering projects within Studio
• Partner with the Building Generation team to define and maintain clean API surfaces between the building model layer and Studio's interaction/rendering systems
• Drive architectural and technical decisions for Studio's frontend systems, prioritizing performance, maintainability, and user experience
• Balance rapid iteration with systematic improvements to quality, testability, and technical debt reduction
• Develop and mentor a high-performing team of engineers, fostering technical depth, accountability, and collaboration
• Co-own the product roadmap with product and design leaders, bringing engineering judgment to prioritization and trade-off decisions
• Own the operating rhythm of the Studio team, driving async-first, minimal-meeting delivery with clear ownership and high engineering accountability

Requirements

• Deep experience building and leading teams delivering complex, interactive 2D/3D applications in the browser
• Strong technical background in frontend architecture (React, TypeScript, WebAssembly, Web Workers)
• Proven expertise with graphics frameworks and CAD technologies (Three.js, WebGL, or custom geometry kernels)
• Highly skilled cross-functional communication and influence
• Ability to balance trade-offs and build trust quickly

Nice-to-Haves

• Familiarity with geometric modeling, constraint solving, or real-time rendering pipelines
• Passion for bringing sophisticated 2D/3D tools to life in the browser and pushing web-based CAD limits
