The mission of an Engineering Manager at Anchorage Digital is to drive the healthy growth of the engineering organization. As an Engineering Manager, you are expected to help with hiring high-caliber Engineers to support the growth of the team, mentor and collaborate with team members to work toward their career goals, and drive the processes that can sustain a high-performance engineering team.

We think about growth and career development differently at Anchorage Digital. We define performance as acquiring, possessing, and practicing a relevant set of skills and competencies - and the ability to apply them effectively and consistently. We have created the Factors of Growth & Impact to help Anchorage Digital “Villagers” better measure impact and the rich and rewarding learning that happens while exploring, developing, and mastering the capabilities and contributions within and outside of the Engineering Manager role. You will be coached, mentored and guided to grow your capabilities in 4 major areas:

Refine engineering roadmap, drive operational excellence, and create technology strategy for your team.

Showcase your expertise and judgement in tackling complex and ambiguous challenges, delivering scalable solutions.

Focus on and prioritize the health, happiness, personal/professional progression of every member on your team.

Lead a team of Engineers and take responsibility for their quality of execution, timeliness of delivery, impact, and growth.

Be a mentor and advisor, providing coaching and feedback which levels up all those on your team.

Take ownership over the quality of execution, timeliness of delivery, processes, impact and personal and professional growth for a single team.

Work closely with Product Managers to define investment in our products, ensuring harmony between our product plans, the bandwidth of the team, the realities of the technical landscape and your plans for the growth and structure of the team.

Work with other engineering managers, product management, people/recruiting, and the rest of engineering to drive team growth, retention, and hiring moving forward.
