Software Engineering Manager

Job Description

Job Description

At Drive Further, we’re an independent Collective made up of Financial & Legal Insurance, Magnus, MSL, Supportis, and Dualdrive.


We’re hiring a Software Development Manager to lead a team delivering scalable, high‑transaction software. This is a true player/coach role: you’ll split your time between hands-on engineering and leading the team (depending on delivery needs).


What you’ll do

  • Lead a team of engineers with clear priorities and predictable delivery
  • Own end-to-end delivery: planning, estimation, backlog hygiene and release execution (Azure DevOps)
  • Set technical direction and standards across .NET/C#, Angular, SQL Server
  • Stay hands-on when needed: design, code, pair, review PRs, unblock the team
  • Drive quality, reliability and security: testing approach, incident response, post-incident improvements
  • Hire, onboard and develop engineers (including onshore/offshore collaboration)


What we need from you

  • 8+ years building and shipping software
  • Strong .NET/C# (ASP.NET) + API-first backend experience
  • Working knowledge of Angular (Node.js a plus)
  • Solid SQL Server and transactional systems experience
  • Proven people leadership: 1:1s, coaching, performance reviews, team culture
  • Strong Agile delivery skills and stakeholder communication
  • Experience with Git, CI/CD, and Azure/Azure DevOps
  • Comfortable adopting AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot/Claude) with sensible guardrails


A unique opportunity to join an exciting company with ambitious plans for the future. Don't delay - if you have the skills and experience we are looking for - Apply Today.
