Engineering Manager

Futurex is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a team of software/firmware engineers building world-class HSM and Key Management products. You'll be the direct people manager for your team — responsible for their day-to-day performance, growth, and delivery. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll balance people management with enough technical fluency to unblock your team and speak credibly to engineering tradeoffs.

What You'll Do

• Serve as the direct manager for a team of software engineers — own 1:1s, performance reviews, PTO/attendance, and career development
• Ensure day-to-day accountability: your team shows up, communicates blockers early, and delivers on commitments
• Own sprint/project planning in partnership with product and program management; keep timelines realistic and on track
• Identify and resolve delivery risks before they become missed deadlines
• Partner with senior engineers on technical direction without necessarily writing production code yourself
• Hire, onboard, and ramp new engineers on the team
• Escalate resourcing, scope, or cross-team dependency issues to leadership proactively
• Foster a culture of ownership, quality, and accountability

Requirements

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years managing software or firmware engineers, ideally in a regulated, security-sensitive, or hardware-adjacent industry
