Transcend is seeking highly motivated and experienced Engineering Managers. The ideal candidate is a player-coach engineering leader, someone who can manage a high-performing team in a fast-paced environment, and who is able to deep-dive into the stack when necessary.

We are looking for Engineering Managers to lead our following teams:

Consent Configuration & Regulation - Collect & enforce user consent, and provide our customers with useful tools to consume that consent data. One of these tools functions similarly as a firewall running on your browser to selectively block or allow data to be sent out to backend servers. Other tools provide APIs & UIs to access consent data to ensure user consent is respected before being used by internal systems.
Assessments & Platform - Own the Assessments product and core platform capabilities. Assessments enables customers to create, assign, and manage privacy compliance reviews -- including DPIAs, vendor risk assessments, and AI governance assessments -- with automated triggers, approval workflows, and direct output to Records of Processing Activities (RoPAs) and the Data Inventory. On the platform side, the team owns cross-product infrastructure like the task management system (action items, notifications, error routing), audit logs, data reports, and shared UX patterns -- working across the full stack in TypeScript, React, and GraphQL against Postgres at meaningful scale.

This is a remote, Exempt, Full Time position based in the United States. The successful candidate must have valid work authorization, as visa sponsorship is not available. This roles report directly to our senior Engineering Managers.
