Zeffy · Remote — Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Welcome to the Jungle Posted Jun 1, 2026 First seen May 16, 2026

Join Zeffy as an Engineering Manager, where you'll lead a team of full-stack developers and ensure high standards across efficiency, security, stability, and performance. You'll partner with Product and Design to build impactful solutions, act as Hiring Manager, and contribute to tech and process improvements company-wide.

About the role

We’re looking for someone with at least 8 years of experience as a developer in SaaS or web-based products that serve high-volume and rapidly growing user bases, including 3+ years in a leadership role. We move fast by keeping things simple, and we want someone who embodies that mindset: someone who knows when structure adds value, when it gets in the way, and how to guide others toward the right balance. * You’ve shipped complex products at scale, learned from real-world successes and failures, and developed sharp judgment about what truly matters. * You bring seniority through expertise and perspective rather than hierarchy, making clear, pragmatic decisions that balance speed, quality, and long-term thinking. * You value clarity over cleverness, simplicity over complexity, and momentum over perfection. * You mentor others with empathy, share your experience generously, and elevate the work of the whole team without adding unnecessary process.

Key missions

  • Lead a team of fully autonomous full-stack Dev Owners, ensuring clarity of ownership, sharp prioritization, and high standards across efficiency, security, stability, and performance.
  • Own your squad’s efficiency and delivery within our 2-month cycles, partnering with Product and Design to build the simplest, highest-impact solutions.
  • Act as Hiring Manager and help scale the team, refining Zeffy’s development principles and contributing to tech and process improvements company-wide.
