Why we need you

As a Engineering Manager, you’ll be a critical multiplier on our technical team — leading high-performing engineers, shaping our engineering culture, and ensuring we ship robust, scalable systems. You’ll play a hands-on role in both people leadership and technical execution, helping the team navigate complex architecture, rapid iteration cycles, and customer-driven development in a fast-moving environment. You’ll be responsible for growing the team, ensuring technical excellence, and helping us deliver high-impact products that directly improve patient access to life-saving therapies.

What you’ll do

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of engineers building core platform functionality and AI workflows

  • Partner closely with Product, Design, and Forward Deployed Engineering to prioritize work and drive execution

  • Maintain a high bar for technical design, system architecture, and engineering quality

  • Help scale our engineering culture and team through recruiting, onboarding, and performance development

  • Foster a fast-paced but sustainable environment where engineers are empowered to do their best work

  • Contribute to strategic planning and help shape Mandolin’s technical roadmap as we expand into new verticals

Must-have experience

  • 5+ years of engineering management experience in a fast-paced environment

  • Track record of leading teams that ship complex, production-grade systems

  • Strong technical background with the ability to go deep in backend systems, infrastructure, or AI/ML tooling

  • Proven ability to collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and customer-facing teams

  • Excellent communication, prioritization, and organizational skills in ambiguous, fast-changing contexts

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience at an early-stage startup or in the healthcare/healthtech space

  • Exposure to LLMs, agent frameworks, and AI infrastructure

  • Familiarity with modern cloud platforms, data pipelines, and secure integrations in regulated environments
