- Manage stakeholder and 3rd party relationships
- Develop and maintain relationships with external partners and relevant third parties
- Support interdepartmental cooperation with product and feature release as well as ongoing updates and patches

**The skills and experience you’ll bring to the role**
- Experience as an Engineering Manager in a fast-paced technology, product or creative company
- Experience in engineering at a senior level and/or people management experience in a tech or start-up environment
- Deep hands-on engineering experience with UI work or development of custom, in-house rendering technology

- A true passion for your craft
- Emotional intelligence and a calm, self-assured leadership style
- Demonstrated ability to manage and build diverse teams
- A leadership and management style that builds consensus and understanding
- Able to communicate technical information to non-technical employees and stakeholders

**Perks and benefits include**
- Generous annual leave plus extra mental health days
