Hostaway is the market-leading SaaS scale-up transforming the vacation rental industry. With innovative solutions and partnerships with giants like Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking, we're taking on the competition and winning. Leveraging our customer-centric core values, we consistently deliver results that encourage growth, learning, and innovation for our team, our customers, and the industry. Profitable, high-growth, and the first short-term rental PMS unicorn. We're looking for a delivery-focused Engineering Manager to lead two teams that share a common trait: they work horizontally across the entire Hostaway platform rather than owning a single vertical domain. The Mobile team (4 engineers) owns our React Native app, bringing the full power of Hostaway to property managers on the go. Your focus will be driving feature parity with our web platform and delivering the performance users expect from a native experience. The Customer Delight team (1-3 engineers) acts as engineering's 'special forces' - solving urgent, high-visibility issues and delivering cross-cutting improvements that customers feel every day. From platform-wide UX polish to automation that reduces support burden, this team makes Hostaway better everywhere. Both teams require a leader who can context-switch across domains, coordinate with multiple product areas, and drive impact without owning a single bounded problem space. You'll guide engineers through ambiguity, ensure quality delivery across diverse initiatives, and build a culture of ownership and customer focus.
Job Responsibility:
Lead two product engineering teams with a clear focus on delivery, ownership, and customer impact
Drive mobile app priorities around feature parity and performance, ensuring a best-in-class experience for property managers
Guide the Customer Delight team in identifying and resolving friction points across the platform
Ensure both teams deliver high-quality software on time, with scalable, secure, and maintainable architecture
Support engineers through mentorship, coaching, and career development - helping each person grow and succeed
Collaborate closely with Product, Design, Support, and other Engineering teams to align on goals and ensure successful execution
Foster a team culture of transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement
Establish and refine engineering processes that improve delivery speed, system reliability, and team autonomy
Partner with the Director of Engineering and other Engineering Leaders to shape org-wide practices and performance standards
Requirements:
6+ years of experience as a Software Engineering Manager or in a similar position with direct people management responsibilities
A strong foundation in software engineering - comfortable reading and reasoning about complex systems
Familiarity with mobile development: understanding of the mobile app lifecycle, release processes, app store dynamics, and mobile-specific concerns like performance, offline behavior, and push notifications
Proven experience leading engineering teams in a product-oriented environment, ideally within SaaS or platform businesses
Ability to drive execution: aligning team goals, managing delivery timelines, and removing blockers
Track record of mentoring engineers and creating an environment where people can grow and thrive
Comfortable working in agile environments with fast-moving priorities and cross-functional teams
Experience in remote-first teams and product companies (vs. consultancy/project shops) is preferred
