Develop engineers. Elevate execution. Lead what’s next.
At Gallup, we’re transforming how organizations understand their people and helping them create exceptional workplaces. As an engineering manager, you’ll lead a group of talented software engineers who build the tools, platforms and systems that power our marketing technology, e-commerce (the Gallup Store) and customer acquisition pipelines.
This is a pivotal leadership role for an experienced engineer who brings the technical depth, judgment and curiosity needed to guide teams doing complex, meaningful work. You will mentor engineers; measure and drive performance; and influence how we scale team culture, engineering practices and product outcomes across our growth platforms. You’ll partner closely with product, sales, marketing, finance and design leaders to lead roadmap planning and prioritization; translate the roadmap into an actionable plan; and help your team continuously improve how they build, ship and learn.
If you’re passionate about developing people and energized by the opportunity to modernize our marketing technology and commerce experiences, we’d love to meet you. Apply today!
What You’ll Do
- Lead and develop a team of six to 10 software engineers, serving as a player-coach through active mentorship, regular feedback and meaningful career growth conversations
- Create an environment where engineers can do their best work by establishing clarity, trust and sustainable delivery practices
- Partner with stakeholder leaders to translate business needs into technical requirements; align team goals; plan roadmaps and experiments; and deliver outcomes that increase customer acquisition, engagement and revenue
- Guide agile planning, execution and retrospectives to promote focus, transparency and continuous improvement
- Bring engineering judgment to architectural discussions, technical trade-offs and prioritization decisions for marketing technology, e-commerce integrations and third-party MarTech systems
- Support engineering excellence through strong practices in testing, observability, code quality and reliability
- Use delivery and performance metrics to understand how the team is operating and where improvement will have the greatest impact
- Contribute to hiring, onboarding and performance processes that strengthen Gallup’s engineering community
What Makes You Stand Out
- People-first leadership: You help engineers thrive through clarity, mentorship, coaching and trust.
- Product growth focus: You understand how to balance user needs, delivery velocity and technical sustainability, with an emphasis on driving measurable growth outcomes and customer experience for marketing and e-commerce.
- Strong engineering foundation: You bring deep software engineering experience and can confidently engage in system-level discussions and technical decision-making.
- Performance mindset: You believe measurement improves performance and use meaningful metrics to guide conversations, trade-offs and improvement.
- Clear communication and prioritization: You bring structure and clarity to fast-paced, complex work; align cross-functional partners; and help teams focus on what matters most.
- Change navigation: You’ve helped teams adapt, align and excel during transformation, and you foster psychological safety, feedback and continuous improvement.
