StoraStora is building the operating platform for modern self-storage businesses.Our software helps operators manage bookings, payments, customers, facilities and day-to-day operations from one place, while automating much of the work that traditionally makes running a self-storage business unnecessarily complicated.In just over five years, Stora has grown from an early-stage product into a platform used by more than 500 operators.We’re a product-led, remote-first company with an experienced engineering team and ambitious plans for what comes next.Now, as the engineering organisation grows, we’re hiring an Engineering Manager to make sure the way we lead, develop and support engineers grows with it.The RoleThis is a genuine people leadership role.You’ll manage approximately 12 engineers working across three product teams, with the team expected to continue growing.Each product team has a Tech Lead responsible for technical direction, alongside Product and Design
Your focus is different: the engineers themselves.
This isn’t a role for somebody looking to move away from engineering completely, though.
You’ll need enough technical depth to understand the work, follow engineering discussions and ask good questions without needing to be the person making every technical decision.
You’ll work closely with our Head of Engineering and have support from People, but you’ll have meaningful autonomy to improve how engineering management works at Stora.

Identify performance issues early and handle difficult conversations properly when needed.
Support engineers in progressing from junior through senior and beyond.
