Software Development Manager

Job description

BeyondTrust is a place where you can bring your purpose to life through the work that you do, creating a safer world through our cybersecurity SaaS portfolio.

Our culture of flexibility, trust, and continual learning means you will be recognized for your growth, and for the impact you make on our success. You will be surrounded by people who challenge, support, and inspire you to be the best version of yourself.

The Role

Join us as a Software Development Manager and play a pivotal role in launching and enhancing our SaaS platform services. In this role, you will initially lead a team focused on solving critical security challenges in identity and authentication — designing, developing, and maintaining secure access services that scale across our products. Over time, your scope will expand into additional platform domains, enabling other products to onboard seamlessly to the platform. This role offers a unique opportunity to demonstrate your technical leadership, grow and develop a diverse engineering team, and overcome cloud-scale challenges to deliver secure, reliable, and extensible platform systems.

What You’ll Do

Leadership & Management

• Direct and manage a focused engineering team, ensuring alignment with company goals and efficient resource allocation.
• Build a strong engineering culture rooted in accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Strategic Development

• Oversee development of platform services with an initial focus on identity & authentication (auth flows, SSO, OIDC, access control).
• Partner with product and security teams to define priorities, and expand scope into additional platform capabilities over time.

Operational Excellence

• Foster an adaptive, agile culture where the team delivers secure, scalable, and resilient solutions.
• Drive operational improvements and enforce high standards in availability, reliability, and customer support.

Team Development & Mentorship

• Recruit top talent, set clear expectations, and mentor engineers for growth in technical, product, and interpersonal skills.
• Empower senior engineers to lead technically while ensuring you stay engaged in understanding and representing the work.

Communication & Collaboration

• Effectively communicate with stakeholders, ensuring team alignment with organizational objectives.
• Build cross-functional partnerships across product, security, and engineering to drive outcomes.

What You’ll Bring

• 3+ years of engineering team management experience.
• 5+ years’ experience delivering and supporting enterprise-ready cloud-based systems.
• Solid Understanding of modern design patterns.
• Experience with the full development lifecycle, including product release in an agile environment.
• Experience working on an Agile team in a continuous integration and development environment.
• Experience partnering with product or program management teams.
• Strong background in one or more modern programming languages (C#, Golang, Java, etc.).
• Experience with agile methodologies and leading teams in a continuous integration/delivery environment.
• Expertise in developing API services and scalable microservices architectures.
• Experience with public cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Prior experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with authentication/authorization protocols (OIDC, SAML, OAuth2) and building secure identity services.
• Understanding of automated testing practices (unit, e2e, integration, smoke).

Who You Are

• You are a team force-multiplier who increases the impact of a team. You lead by example and do this via systems of feedback, structure, and direction.
• You recognize talents who are interested in growing, and you are invested in helping them learn and scale.
• You are flexible and can adapt to shifting situations and requirements.
• You take the initiative to fix issues before being assigned to them. You are persistent when facing roadblocks, overcoming them efficiently, and know how to coordinate with others when necessary.
• You hold high standards, continuously raise the bar, and drive our teams to deliver high-quality products, services, and processes.
• You understand software development best practices from appropriate testing paradigms to effective peer code reviews and resilient architectures.
• You know how to balance speed and risks; you make decisions based on data.
