Engineering Manager (Hands-On, TypeScript)
Up to $205k + super + equity | Hybrid Sydney | Health & Wellness Tech

Looking to step into engineering leadership - without stepping away from code?

Join a fast-scaling, mission-driven company redefining preventative health. With over $60M in funding, a physical product at national scale, and thousands of loyal customers, this is your chance to lead real impact while staying close to the tech.

This is a hands-on Engineering Manager role. You’ll be leading a squad of talented engineers while still coding daily in TypeScript, working across a modern, cloud-native stack. You’ll play a central role in building customer-facing features, scaling systems, and shaping the team’s technical culture as the company expands.

What’s in it for you

  • Step up into tech leadership while staying hands-on
  • Build software that improves lives at national scale
  • Own equity in a high-growth, mission-led company
  • Work in a people-first culture that supports learning and balance
  • Collaborate closely with product, data, and operations

What you’ll be doing

  • Lead a small team of engineers (3–5) through code, mentorship, and delivery
  • Drive hands-on development using TypeScript (NestJS, Vue)
  • Partner with Product and Design to ship high-impact features
  • Shape engineering practices and roadmap
  • Solve complex technical challenges that connect software to physical logistics
  • Champion quality, security, and performance in everything you ship

Your environment

  • TypeScript, Vue.js, NestJS
  • Microservices, PostgreSQL
  • AWS, CI/CD pipelines, containerisation
  • Emphasis on secure coding, test automation, and continuous delivery

What we’re looking for

  • Strong software engineering background with recent experience in hands-on coding
  • Experience leading, mentoring, or coaching other engineers
  • Great communicator who thrives in cross-functional work
  • A product mindset - you care about users, not just systems
  • Ready to take the step into leadership, but not ready to hang up your keyboard
  • Bonus if you’ve worked in logistics, manufacturing, or with hardware interfaces - but it’s not required.

Perks and benefits

  • Competitive salary + up to $200k equity
  • Annual learning and development budget
  • Up to 18 weeks paid parental leave top-up
  • Hybrid-friendly and pet-friendly offices
  • Wellbeing tools and perks
