Overview We’re seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead our Order Management System (OMS) team. You’ll own the technical vision, roadmap, and delivery of the systems that power order lifecycle, fulfillment orchestration, returns, and enterprise integrations. This role requires strong technical judgment, hands‑on architecture experience, and proven people leadership in an e‑commerce, retail, or logistics context.

Responsibilities

Lead, grow, and coach a team of engineers (individual contributors and senior engineers), fostering a high‑performance, ownership‑first culture.

Own the OMS roadmap and delivery: define priorities, break down work, and ensure reliable execution against business goals.

Design and drive scalable, highly available architecture for order orchestration, fulfillment, returns, and exchanges. Ensure resiliency, observability, and operational excellence.

Partner closely with product, supply chain, fulfillment ops, SRE, QA, and external vendors to design end‑to‑end order flows and integrations (ERP, WMS, carrier, payments, e‑commerce platforms).

Establish and monitor service‑level objectives (SLOs/SLAs), reduce order failures, and improve MTTR.

Drive best practices for testing, CI/CD, release management, and infrastructure‑as‑code.

Be accountable for on‑call rotations, incident management, postmortems, and continuous improvement.

Recruit, retain, and mentor strong engineering talent; run performance reviews and career development plans.

Manage technical debt and ensure security/compliance standards are met.

Own vendor/third‑party relationships and technical evaluations when needed.

Qualifications

9+ years software engineering experience, with 2+ years in a people‑manager / engineering‑manager role.

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.

Strong domain experience with order management, e‑commerce order flows, fulfillment orchestration, or adjacent domains (payments, logistics, WMS/ERP integrations).

Deep understanding of distributed systems, event‑driven architecture (Kafka/SQS/RabbitMQ), idempotency, eventual consistency, retries and transactional patterns across services.

Hands‑on experience with microservices, REST/gRPC APIs, message‑based integrations, and relational databases (and appropriate use of NoSQL).

Proven track record owning system reliability and operational metrics (SLOs, alerting, monitoring).

Experience building and shipping software in cloud environments (AWS/GCP/Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).

Strong cross‑functional communication and stakeholder management skills — comfortable presenting to senior leadership and partnering with product, ops and business teams.

Direct experience with BlueYonder or IBM Sterling OMS or large‑scale custom OMS platforms.

Experience integrating with ERP (Oracle, SAP), WMS systems, carrier APIs and fulfillment networks.

Familiarity with Java/Spring, Node.js or Python in production environments.

Experience with Kafka or other event streaming platforms, and with stream‑processing patterns.

Knowledge of payment/settlement, taxation and compliance considerations in order processing.

Experience in retail/omnichannel commerce (store fulfillment, ship‑from‑store, buy‑online‑pickup‑in‑store, split shipments, cancellations and returns).

Leadership & behavioral competencies.

Demonstrated ability to hire, develop and retain high‑performing engineers.

Data‑driven decision making and prioritization.

Bias for action and pragmatic engineering judgment.

Strong ownership mindset and accountability for customer and business outcomes.

Collaborative and empathetic people leader with conflict‑resolution skills.

Base salary range for this position is $175,000–$235,000 per year. Actual salaries will vary based on location, experience and performance. The range is one component of the total rewards package, which may also include performance bonuses, long‑term incentives, PTO and additional progressive benefits.
