Be a key contributor to an exciting remote-first software company!
CareerPlug provides innovative recruiting and HR software for over 16,000 growing companies. Our applicant tracking platform helps companies make better hires to have the right people in place to build a successful business.
We believe that people are the heart of our business and are committed to building one of the best places to work -- anywhere. To us, that means putting care and purpose into our hiring process, providing meaningful development and training opportunities for our team members, and living our core values every day.
CareerPlug is proud to be an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering a diverse team. Our leadership takes responsibility for creating a safe and welcoming environment built on inclusion and respect for all.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to join our Product Team and to help lead two of CareerPlug's tight-knit, integrated, and highly productive squads. The right candidate will be motivated to lead and mentor our team of software engineers who are challenged to write clean, maintainable code in Ruby and Javascript in order to build and maintain mature, complex, and constantly growing software products.
Our developers work full-stack, building new features from scratch, and balance their work on new features with bug fixes, innovation projects, and infrastructure improvements. This is an opportunity to make significant contributions to a high-growth product and directly influence the growth and future direction of CareerPlug's software.
We believe that engineering managers should empower their teams by, among other things, creating a work environment that supports experimentation, failure, learning, high-trust, and allows employees to make decisions that affect their jobs.
If you are an experienced engineering manager who is looking to continue your path while assisting others on their path of continuous learning, continuous improvement, and a team that values outcomes over output this may be a great fit for you!

Anti-Racism Commitment
"My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together."
-Desmond Tutu
We have a fierce commitment to at CareerPlug. It's what shapes our culture and community, and shows up in a resolve to be inclusive, and therefore, anti-racist.
We know that racism can be intentional or unintentional, but its existence is dehumanizing to everyone it touches. Our promise is to purposefully identify, discuss, and challenge issues of systemic racism and unconscious bias and the impacts they have on our company and our people. We've always fostered a culture of communicating openly, but we know we can continue to do better. We will challenge ourselves to understand and correct inequities and create a "best place to work" for every employee.
We choose to participate in this conversation and affirm our identity as an anti-racist company. We hope you will join us.
