Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Revance is a global company developing industry-leading products in aesthetics, skincare, and therapeutics. They are seeking an Engineering Manager for their digital platform to manage and grow an internal engineering team while ensuring quality and strategic vendor partnerships across various digital properties.
Responsibilities
- Owns the strategic relationship with external delivery partners for digital product execution; holds them accountable to staffing commitments, capability standards, and role-level expectations (tech lead, scrum master, developers) across pods
- Ensures vendor engineers assigned to each pod have the right expertise; addresses skill gaps through staffing decisions, coaching, or replacement
- Owns the long-term internal-vs-vendor balance - what stays with vendors, what transitions in-house. Creates and executes a 12-18 month transition roadmap sequenced by risk and value
- Owns vendor escalations when performance issues arise, in partnership with Product Leads
- Hire and manage the internal engineering team– Recruit engineers as needed and directs the team's work, ensures quality and delivery, and evolves scope away from content updates toward higher-value development work
- Owns hiring, onboarding, performance management, and career development
- Builds the internal team over time - identifies roles to bring in-house, hires against them, grows engineers from within
- Sets the cadence of 1:1s, team rituals, and engineering operating norms; builds a culture of ownership, quality, and partnership with Product
- Identifies and plans technical debt remediation across both stacks; conducts regular audits of code quality and architecture health across pods
- Maintains cross-pod engineering consistency - code standards, deployment practices, quality bar, enable achievement of the user experience goals
- Owns platform operational reliability - uptime, incident response health, post-mortem follow-through
- Hands-on capable on both stacks - Salesforce (Apex, LWC, Loyalty cloud) and modern web (React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node). Can debug production issues across all platforms, build proofs-of-concept, pair with engineers on hard problems, and coach through code
- Deep enough to evaluate engineering work substantively and credibly review pull requests across both stacks. Hands-on work is in service of the team - unblocking, fixing critical issues, validating decisions - rather than running their own sprint ticket queue
Skills
- 8+ years in software engineering, with 3+ years managing engineering teams
- Hands-on full stack engineering background - has shipped production code earlier in career and retains the ability to debug, troubleshoot, and contribute code. Technical credibility with developers is non-negotiable
- Demonstrated experience building or growing internal engineering teams - has hired, onboarded, and grown engineers
- Experience transitioning work from vendor or consulting partners to internal teams - understands what makes a transition succeed or fail
- Managing across hybrid stacks (Salesforce + modern web - React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node AWS, Vercel, Hygraph, CDP, Convex, or equivalent multi-stack environments)
- Managing offshore vendor teams or consulting partners (e.g. Cognizant, Accenture, or similar)
- Designing self-service models for marketing and business teams (CMS, content management, configuration-driven UI)
- Strong partnership with Product leadership; comfortable in matrix structures where Product owns outcomes and Engineering owns capability
- Life sciences, healthcare, or regulated industry experience (HIPAA, GxP awareness)
- B2B + B2C dual-platform environment
- AI-assisted development workflows (Cursor, Claude / Copilot / agentic coding) and team enablement on them
- CSM, PSM, or similar agile certification
Benefits
- Competitive Compensation including base salary and annual performance bonus.
- Flexible PTO (12 days' PTO), holidays, and parental leave.
- Generous healthcare benefits, HSA match, 401k match, employer paid life and disability insurance, pet insurance, wellness discounts and much more!
