Senior Engineering Manager

As a Senior Engineering Manager at Orange Health, you'll lead a team of 7-12 full-stack engineers building the products that power India's fastest diagnostics lab. You'll own the technical direction and delivery for multiple core product areas end-to-end - from customer-facing experiences to the backend services and platform components behind them.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll spend most of your time growing a high-performing team through mentorship, strong hiring, and clear technical guidance - while staying close enough to the code to lead architecture and design decisions, unblock hard problems, and set the bar for engineering quality. You'll partner closely with product, design, and business leadership to turn ambitious healthcare goals into reliable, scalable systems that meaningfully impact people's lives.

Success in this role looks like a team that ships quickly and safely, systems that scale gracefully with our growth, and engineers who are growing in their careers under your leadership.

Responsibilities:

• Lead and take ownership of engineering for multiple core platform components, ensuring alignment with product and business goals.
• Manage, mentor, and foster a high-performing engineering team.
• Design and develop scalable, secure, and reliable systems, while guiding the team with architecture, low-level design, code reviews, and coding best practices.
• Break down complex tasks for efficient development, mitigate technical debt, and ensure quality through continuous integration and testing.
• Drive engineering excellence with best practices in CI/CD, security, and code quality.
• Oversee production releases, monitor performance, and lead technical discussions with a focus on scalability and maintainability.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, evaluate third-party solutions, and implement technologies aligned with future needs.
• Identify enhancement opportunities in processes and systems and promote open-source adoption.
• Work closely with leadership and product teams to innovate and build impactful products in healthcare.

Requirements:

• 10+ years of software development experience with a strong track record in building production-ready applications; demonstrated experience in scaling mid- to large-scale systems, ideally with a startup background.
• Deep expertise in Microservices architecture, with experience in designing modular, reusable components.
• Strong data modelling skills across both relational and NoSQL databases, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, and DynamoDB.
• Comprehensive understanding of DevOps and CI/CD tools (e. g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker, Kubernetes) and related best practices.
• Proficiency with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and experience in architecting for cloud-native environments.
• Deep understanding of object-oriented and functional programming, design patterns, and reactive programming.
• Demonstrated ability to think and develop products with scalability in mind, applying best practices in programming, documentation, and testing to build resilient, high-quality software.
• Passionate about building products that have a meaningful impact on consumers' daily lives and advancing healthcare.
• Experience developing native mobile applications for iOS and/or Android.
• Prior experience in fast-paced startup environments, with a mindset geared toward iterative, agile development and quick decision-making.
