Role: Engineering Manager
Company: Invisia Software
Location: Bengaluru, India
Experience: 8+ years engineering | 2+ years people management
Reports To: VP Technology
Type: Full-Time | Engineering Management
About Invisia Software Invisia Software is a growing software product company building modern, scalable digital platforms. We operate at the intersection of thoughtful engineering and user-centric design, with a team that values ownership, technical rigor, and a bias for shipping. As we scale, we are investing in the people and infrastructure needed to move fast without breaking things — and every hire at this stage has a direct impact on the trajectory of the company
Role We need an Engineering Manager who is as comfortable in a Jira board as they are in a pull request. This role combines hands-on technical contribution with the program management muscle to keep multiple teams moving in sync — unblocking engineers, owning delivery commitments, and making sure cross-team initiatives actually land.
At this stage of Invisia's growth, the EM is not just a people manager — they are a force multiplier. You will act as a Technical Program Engineer, breaking down complex cross-functional work into clear ownership and timelines. You will know when to write code yourself and when to step back and clear the path for your team.
Responsibilities Engineering Delivery
- Own sprint planning end-to-end — from backlog refinement to sprint retrospectives; make sure the team is working on the right things in the right order
- Contribute code directly on high-priority or complex features, especially where your technical judgment is needed to unblock the team
- Make architecture and technology trade-offs at the sprint level; escalate to the VP Tech when system-level decisions are required
- Enforce code review quality and a culture of craftsmanship without creating bottlenecks
Technical Program Management
- Break down large cross-team initiatives into clearly owned workstreams with dependencies mapped and tracked
- Proactively identify blockers — technical, organizational, or resource-related — and resolve them before they impact delivery
- Own delivery commitments to stakeholders; communicate status clearly and early when timelines are at risk
- Maintain a running view of team capacity, technical debt load, and roadmap risk
People & Team Development
- Run regular 1:1s with engineers; understand their growth goals and create opportunities to stretch them
- Conduct performance reviews and provide honest, actionable feedback
- Identify gaps in the team's skills and work with VP Tech to address through hiring or development
- Create an environment where engineers feel ownership and accountability for their work
Must Have
- 8+ years of software engineering experience; you are still a credible technical contributor, not just a coordinator
- 2+ years of people management or a deep Technical Program Engineer background managing large, cross-team initiatives
- Solid command of agile delivery practices and the metrics that matter — cycle time, throughput, escaped defects, deployment frequency
- Excellent communication skills: you can explain a complex technical trade-off to a non-technical stakeholder and make it stick
- Experience running sprint planning, refinement, and retrospectives for teams of 5–15 engineers
Nice To Have
- Experience managing multiple squads simultaneously (2+ teams)
- Exposure to scaling an engineering org from early-stage to 20–30+ engineers
- Familiarity with SaaS product development cycles and release cadences
