Who we are

Typeform is a refreshingly different form builder. We help over 150,000 businesses collect the data they need with forms, surveys, and quizzes that people enjoy. Designed to look striking and feel effortless to fill out, Typeform drives 500 million responses every year—and integrates with essential tools like Slack, Zapier, and Hubspot.

About the Role

As an Engineering Manager, you’ll be responsible for leading, developing, and empowering the engineers in your team. Your focus will be to foster a high-performance engineering culture while ensuring fast-paced, high-quality delivery.

Our stack includes Go, Node.js, React, and Next.js, running on AWS with Kubernetes. We leverage Kafka for messaging and Datadog for observability.


Things you will do:
  • Lead & Mentor: Build, manage, and support one or more engineering teams (5-8 engineers per team), fostering growth and technical excellence.
  • Drive Delivery: Collaborate with Product Managers and stakeholders to define roadmaps, break down complex projects, and ensure timely, predictable execution.
  • Engineering Excellence: Establish and refine software development best practices, balancing technical innovation with legacy system management.
  • Scale & Optimize: Identify opportunities for cross-team collaboration, architectural improvements, and process optimizations.
  • Hands-On Leadership: While this is not a coding-heavy role, you should be comfortable reviewing technical designs and providing guidance.
  • Stakeholder Communication: Represent engineering needs to non-technical stakeholders and align teams with broader company objectives.
  • Culture & Collaboration: Cultivate an inclusive, high-trust engineering culture where teams thrive.

What you already bring to the table:
  • You have a strong track record of managing engineering teams (5-8 engineers each) in a SaaS or tech environment.
  • You bring experience working with cloud-based, long-lived products, including managing and modernizing legacy code.
  • You can balance bottom-up technical innovation with business needs, ensuring engineering efforts align with company goals.
  • You excel at breaking down large, complex projects into clear, iterative milestones for multiple teams.
  • You have a deep understanding of engineering best practices, delivery methodologies, and process optimization.
  • You are comfortable working with distributed teams across multiple geographies.
  • You’re a strong communicator, able to align stakeholders, engage leadership, and represent Typeform externally.

Bonus round (not compulsory, but you’ll hit the high score):
  • Experience with Go, React, Node.js, Python, relational & NoSQL databases.
  • Familiarity with AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, and modern observability tools.
  • Experience leading engineering teams in startups or high-growth companies.
  • A Master's or PhD in Computer Science or a related field.

*Typeform drives hundreds of millions of interactions each year, enabling conversational, human-centered experiences across the globe. We move as one team, empowering our collective efforts by valuing each individual’s unique perspective. This fosters strong bonds grounded in respect, transparency, and trust. We champion our diverse customer base by anticipating their needs and addressing their challenges with priority. Committed to excellence, we hold high expectations for ourselves and each other, continuously striving to deliver exceptional results.

We are proud to be an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and stand firmly against discrimination and harassment of any kind—whether based on race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or expression, or veteran status. Everyone is welcome here.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene

If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
