A little background:
We are Vaan - a remote-first digital agency based out of NY, but with team members all over the world. We’re looking to add an experienced Engineering Manager to our growing team!
We believe awesome technology powers the best brands, so we build it. Our technology becomes the foundation upon which businesses scale their operations, escalate their marketing efforts and grow their sales. Most of the time we're designing and building e-commerce engines and other times we'll be architecting custom software that enhance business operations. Regardless of what we’re making, it's always all digital.
Recent projects we’ve taken on range from designing and building a custom web application for one of the fastest growing sneaker and streetwear companies in Europe, to leading the UX design efforts for a luxury Fortune 500 company’s overhaul of all its e-commerce properties.
We’re also a certified Shopify Plus Agency Partner, and so we do a lot of work using the Shopify platform. You can see a more detailed sampling of our client work on our website.

As an Engineering Manager at Vaan, you will be responsible for managing a team of developers, collaborating with our product management and project management teams, and improving engineering department policies, standards, and processes.
The successful candidate will have prior experience in an organizational leadership role, be able to collaborate with team members across departments, and be a strategic problem solver. Excellent communication skills, an ability to connect with other developers, and a strong technical background in software engineering are important prerequisites for this position.

Our tech stack:
We deploy our apps as Docker containers to Heroku platform, backed up by Heroku-hosted instances of PostgreSQL, Apache Kafka, and Redis. Vercel is our platform of choice for deploying Next.js front-ends.
We avoid self-hosted approaches, e.g., Kubernetes clusters. Instead, we prefer to focus on achieving business goals, e.g., “time-to-market”, development-production parity, and excellent developer-centric experience.
We are looking to level-up our GitOps automation on GitHub by implementing Infrastructure as Code practices using Terraform and similar tools.
