Engineering Manager

Develop engineers. Elevate execution. Lead what’s next.

At Gallup, we’re transforming how organizations understand their people and helping them create exceptional workplaces. As an engineering manager for our Gallup Access product teams, you’ll lead a group of talented software engineers building the technology that powers Gallup’s flagship analytics platform.

This is a pivotal leadership role for an experienced engineer who brings the technical depth, judgment and curiosity needed to guide teams doing complex, meaningful work. You’ll mentor engineers, measure and drive performance, and influence how we scale team culture, engineering practices, and product outcomes across a growing platform. You’ll partner closely with product and design leaders to clarify priorities, foster strong execution habits, and help your team continuously improve how they build, ship and learn.

If you’re passionate about developing people and energized by the opportunity to modernize how a trusted brand ships product, we’d love to meet you. Apply today!

What You’ll Do

• Lead and develop a team of six to 10 software engineers through coaching, feedback and career growth conversations
• Create an environment where engineers can do their best work by establishing clarity, trust and sustainable delivery practices
• Partner with product and design leaders to align team goals, plan roadmaps and deliver outcomes that matter
• Guide agile planning, execution and retrospectives to promote focus, transparency and continuous improvement
• Bring engineering judgment to architectural discussions, technical trade-offs and prioritization decisions
• Support engineering excellence through strong practices in testing, observability, code quality and reliability
• Use delivery and performance metrics to understand how the team is operating and where improvement will have the greatest impact
• Contribute to hiring, onboarding and performance processes that strengthen Gallup’s engineering community
• Focus your first few months on strengthening delivery flow, reinforcing collaboration across engineering and product, and bringing greater clarity to priorities and execution

What Makes You Stand Out

• People-first leadership: You help engineers thrive through clarity, coaching and trust.
• Product focus: You understand how to balance user needs, delivery velocity and technical sustainability.
• Strong engineering foundation: You bring deep software engineering experience and can confidently engage in system-level discussions and technical decision-making.
• Performance mindset: You believe measurement improves performance and use meaningful metrics to guide conversations, trade-offs and improvement.
• Clear communication and prioritization: You bring structure and clarity to fast-paced, complex work, align cross-functional partners, and help teams focus on what matters most.
• Change navigation: You’ve helped teams adapt, align and excel during transitions, and you foster psychological safety, feedback and continuous improvement.

What You Need

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience, required 
• At least seven years of professional software engineering experience required
• At least two years in a people leadership or engineering management role required
• Experience leading cross-functional product teams in an agile, fast-paced environment required
