We're looking for our first dedicated Engineering Manager to help lead teams in pursuit of our ambitious product roadmap. We're driven by the desire to deliver the best creative software experience for our global community. You'll have deep technical experience as well as ability in progressive people management.

You'll guide a small team of engineers to develop and ship mission critical features, solve complex technical problems, define the parameters of our projects, improve overall development efficiency and nurture our internal engineering talent.

Who we are.
One of the driving factors behind Procreate's success is our close-knit teamwork.

The role.

You'll work closely with the engineering team, the executive and members of other departments to align engineering with other critical business functions.

Your work will provide additional structure and certainty to the development process and relieve the Executive member of the engineering team of people management functions, allowing them to focus on both executive and development duties.

We also offer you extended parental leave, an extra 5 Doona Days per year, plus an Employee Assistance Program open to you and your family members.

Everything you need to do your best workWe'll provide you with all the hardware and software you need, including a fully adjustable desk set up for your way of working.

But it's the personalised professional support, and growth and development opportunities we think will really help you fly.
