Beacon Biosignals is on a mission to revolutionize precision medicine for the brain. We are the leading at-home EEG platform supporting clinical development of novel therapeutics for neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders. Our FDA 510(k)-cleared Dreem EEG headband and AI algorithms enable quantitative biomarker discovery and implementation. Beacon’s Clinico-EEG database contains EEG data from nearly 100,000 patients, and our cloud-native analytics platform powers large-scale RWD/RWE retrospective and predictive studies. Beacon Biosignals is changing the way that patients are treated for any disorder that affects brain physiology.    The Beacon Datastore is the heart of Beacon's platform, serving as the foundational data layer that every tool, service, and application depends on. As a Senior Manager, Engineering reporting to the VP of Platform, you'll manage 5-7 engineers and will be responsible for the continued development and success of the Datastore. Your team’s decisions about data architecture, API design, reliability, and performance will have compounding effects across the entire Beacon product ecosystem. You’ll be expected to shape the team’s technical direction, drive its engineering standards, and ensure it's integrated effectively and communicating well with the rest of the organization. Beacon’s asynchronous work practices support a strong remote experience, with in-person hubs in Boston, New York, and Paris. The Platform domain is distributed across American and European time zones. This role is located in the US, with a preference for candidates near our Boston or New York hubs. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE As a successful engineering manager at Beacon, you'll... * Coach your direct reports to pursue opportunities that increase their impact at Beacon, and guide them through the challenges they encounter along the way. * Develop a deep understanding of the Datastore and the broader Platform product ecosystem, and actively share that context to drive continuous improvement of the team's processes and its integration with Beacon as a whole. * Cultivate an environment where engineers learn constantly and collaboratively, and treat setbacks as opportunities for growth. * Act as a steward of Beacon's engineering practices and maintain high bars for engineering quality, productivity, and accountability while motivating the team to continuously raise those bars over time. * Help your team scope and prioritize tactical week-to-week work in direct connection with Beacon's wider strategic initiatives. * Ensure your team's development roadmap is outcome-oriented, current, aligned with company objectives and other teams' priorities, and communicated clearly to stakeholders across Beacon. * Own project management for team initiatives: defining scope, managing timelines, and setting expectations internally and externally. * Partner with quality and regulatory stakeholders to ensure the team's development processes meet design control requirements without sacrificing engineering momentum, and lead the team in continuously improving how it does both. WHAT YOU WILL BRING * You have 4+ years directly managing mid-sized software engineering teams that have tackled big problems, and can speak to the underlying processes that drove their failures and successes. * You love seeing teams level up. You're dedicated to helping direct reports overcome challenges and seize opportunities that are crucial to self-growth. * Information-gathering is ingrained in every aspect of your work. Your decisions incorporate feedback from stakeholders, your reports, collaborators, and historical context that you intentionally mine from the project over time. * You demonstrate a bias towards simplicity, avoid misallocating complexity, and try to impose structure at the right time - not too early or too late. * You're painfully aware of the perils of both under- and over-planning. You have a solid handle on the planning horizon of any given project, as well as the corresponding inevitable estimation accuracy drop off over time. You work to extend that horizon as the project matures. * Once you've made a decision, you communicate and follow through with it. You swiftly communicate any dynamic changes with collaborators and stakeholders. * Your work empowers the decision-making abilities of your reports, collaborators, and stakeholders. * You have a keen sense for the bandwidth limitations, technical debt, and non-iterative processes that drag a project down, and you've employed effective strategies for preventing/remedying these issues in the past. * You have hands-on experience leading engineering teams under formal design controls (IEC 62304 or equivalent) and can point to concrete ways you maintained development velocity within those constraints. The salary range for this role is $200,000 – $220,000. Salary ranges are determined using current market compensation data for this role and adjusted based on experience, skills, and location. The base salary is one component of the total compensation package, which includes equity, PTO and other benefits. At Beacon, we've found that cultural and scientific impact is driven most by those that lead by example. As such, we're always seeking new contributors whose work demonstrates an avid curiosity, a bias towards simplicity, an eye for composability, a self-service mindset, and - most of all - a deep empathy towards colleagues, stakeholders, users, and patients. We believe a diverse team builds more robust systems and achieves higher impact.
