Software Development Manager

Your role

Microsoft 365 is where work happens. It keeps getting bigger, busier and harder to keep under control. ShareGate helps more than 100,000 IT pros move, understand and govern their Microsoft 365 environments with confidence. AI now lets us build faster than ever, so the real question is whether we're building the right things. We're looking for a Software Development Manager to bridge the two: someone who moves fast with every tool available and keeps the team focused on what makes a difference for customers.

Your impact: 

• Drive customer value by making sure what the team ships improves the customer experience, and challenge work that doesn't.
• Use AI to build faster, raise the quality of what we deliver and simplify maintenance, while keeping every squad focused on the right priorities.
• Build squads that fully own their part of the product, from design to production.
• Keep the roadmap ahead of the team by working with Product and Design, so delivery speed turns into customer value.
• Raise the bar on engineering practices and on the people behind them, from coaching to hiring developers who make the team stronger.

Your team

AI is changing how we build software. Our developers already use agents to design, build, test and maintain the product, and we ship faster than ever. The next challenge isn't going faster. It's making sure that speed turns into more value for customers: better experiences, sharper insights and problems solved before they become problems. Under the hood, a data ingestion platform continuously reads Microsoft 365 environments so customers always see what's really going on.

You'll lead 12 developers organized in 3 squads, each owning its part of the product. We work closely with Product and Design, decide fast and fix course even faster. We're remote-first, with access to our Montreal office.

What you'll bring

• Experience managing a software team of 5+ developers, from hiring to coaching, with the managerial courage to have the hard performance conversations, give direct feedback and keep standards high so the people around you grow;
• A strong product mindset: you start from the customer problem and you're comfortable saying no to work that doesn't solve it;
• Solid knowledge of modern software development practices and architecture, enough to challenge technical decisions;
• A track record of improving how a team works with AI and automation, and measuring the impact;
• Comfort with ambiguity and with making fast, reversible decisions.
