Job Summary: Are you a technical leader who loves mentoring engineers just as much as architecting great software? We are looking for an Information Systems Manager to champion our development team, drive technical excellence, and scale high-quality applications that directly impact our business goals. In this role, you won’t just manage tasks—you will foster career growth, spearhead modern technical strategies, and bridge the gap between brilliant code and cross‑functional business strategy. If you are a builder of both great software and great teams, we want to talk to you. Responsibilities: Manage and develop a team of 3–8 software engineers, guiding their career growth and partnering with HR to recruit, onboard, and retain top technical talent. Provide hands‑on leadership across our core stack ( AWS, MongoDB, React, Symfony ) to build and maintain high‑quality, scalable in‑house applications for both internal and client use. Champion engineering excellence by driving the adoption of Agile methodologies, robust CI/CD pipelines, and modern development tools. Partner with teams like Marketing, Sales, and Operations to translate business needs into successful project timelines and resource plans. Oversee system alignment with modern standards, including data privacy, security protocols, and accessibility guidelines (like ADA compliance). Track key development KPIs, eliminate workflow bottlenecks, and ensure the high availability of critical systems. Skills and Requirements: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field. 5+ years of hands‑on software development experience, with at least 2 years in a leadership or management role. Proficiency with the Microsoft Suite and modern project management tooling. What will make you stand out: Deep familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), database management (Mongo, RDS), and modern frameworks (React, Symfony). Project management certifications (e.g., PMP, Agile Certified Practitioner ). A strong understanding of modern compliance frameworks like GDPR, CCPA, or ADA standards. Bring your leadership, empower your team, and leave your mark. Apply now to drive our next chapter of engineering excellence! #J-18808-Ljbffr Best Version Media
