Hi, Future Homie! At Homebase, you’ll join a team that’s bold, fast-moving, and obsessed with helping small businesses thrive. We build with empathy, act with urgency, and take big swings that drive real-world impact. Here, every Homie shows up to raise the bar, support one another, and celebrate wins as a team. We’re not just building an app—we’re building unstoppable teams. So what do you say, are you in? 📍Your Impact Starts Here We're looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead the HB Assistant engineering team. You'll own delivery for a core, high-visibility product area, grow and develop a team of engineers, and partner closely with Product, Design, and Data to ship agentic experiences that customers love. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone fluent in modern AI/agentic engineering and excited to build in a rapidly evolving space. These are the key ways you’ll contribute and create impact in this role: * Lead, coach, and grow a team of software engineers building the HB Assistant platform and product across web and mobile. * Own end-to-end delivery of your area — from technical planning and architecture through shipping, quality, and reliability. * Partner with Product, Design, and Data leadership to set roadmap priorities and turn ambiguous problems into shipped experiences. * Drive engineering excellence: system design, code quality, monitoring/alerting foundations, latency, and data validation for agentic workflows. * Champion AI-native, end-to-end systems thinking across the team and the broader EPDD organization. * Recruit, hire, and develop top engineering talent; set a high bar and a healthy, high-trust team culture. * Balance velocity and rigor in a 0-to-1 environment where priorities evolve quickly. 🚀 The Foundation for Success - These are the experiences and strengths that will set you up for success in this role: * 8+ years of software engineering experience, including 4+ years managing engineering teams. * Track record leading platform or product engineering teams in a fast-paced SaaS or consumer tech environment. * Strong technical foundation — you can go deep on architecture and design decisions and stay close to the code. * Fluency in modern AI/agentic engineering (LLMs, agents, tool use, evals) and genuine excitement about where the field is going. * Experience designing platforms, developer-facing APIs, or shared services that other teams build on top of. Ability to influence other teams' roadmaps to unlock shared agentic capabilities. * Strong data instincts—you can read funnels, understand cohorts, and know how to instrument features for learning. * AI fluency: You actively use AI tools to accelerate your own work. You coach your team to do the same, and you're opinionated about when AI-powered features genuinely move the needle for users. * Excellent cross-functional communication. You're as comfortable in a product strategy session as a technical design review. Bonus points if you bring: * Experience building consumer or SMB-facing products. * Background in mobile (push notifications, chat surfaces) and/or data-intensive recommendation systems. * Familiarity with small business or hourly workforce products. 🤝 The Homie Way - These principles guide everything we do—from how we work and make decisions to how we show up for each other. * 💡 Be Customer Obsessed – Solve problems with empathy and creativity. * ⚡ Move Fast, Learn Fast – Experiment, take action, and grow every day. * 🎯 Own Your Impact – Think big, focus on what matters, and make decisions you stand behind. * 🏆 Master Your Craft – Excellence fuels impact—show up, step up, and make your mark. * 🏅 Win Together – Put goals over roles, lead with trust, and connect to our mission and each other. What We Offer * 💰 Ownership & Savings: Stock options + TFSA/RRSP with 4% company match * 🏥 Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision for you and your dependents * ⏰ Paid Time Off: Flexible PTO + company holidays + designated focus periods * 🤖 AI access, for real: We invest in builders and believe that curiosity shouldn't have a paywall. That means you'll have access to paid AI tools with minimal restrictions, so you can build, experiment, and level up your craft. * 👶 Family Support: Maternity/Parental Leave EI top-up support offered (after 6 months of service) * 🌟 Work Your Way: Work From Anywhere Month + meeting-free weeks yearly * 🛡️ Protection Plans: Life insurance + short/long-term disability coverage * 🍽️ Workspace Perks: Meals provided, team offsites, and Customer Days * 💼 Our Hybrid Rhythm: We believe collaboration drives impact. That’s why Tuesdays and Wednesdays are our required in-office days—a time to move faster as a team, build deeper connections, make better decisions, and build together. What to Expect During the Interview Process * Meet the Talent Acquisition team, Mavel W. * Meet the Hiring Manager * Participate in a Talent Showcase * Meet Cross-functional Partners * Background Check + Offer Stage * Welcome to the team, Homie 🎉 💜 Belonging at Homebase - We're committed to fostering a welcoming space where every Homie can be their full self.
