Team/Department Overview: Product Engineering Team – Reporting to the Senior Manager of Product Engineering.

Flock Freight is hiring an Engineering Manager to lead a Product Engineering team responsible for the shipper and carrier applications and core workflows that power the freight experience. You will lead an established team of seven engineers, including five Staff Engineers, overseeing end-to-end delivery while providing the technical guidance needed to navigate complex engineering decisions.

This is a people-leadership role first, with a strong emphasis on coaching, developing, and empowering an experienced engineering team. You’ll foster collaboration, elevate team performance, and partner with Product, Design, Operations, and Engineering leadership to deliver reliable software that shippers, carriers, and Flock teams depend on every day.

While you won't be writing production code every day, you'll remain actively involved in architectural discussions, technical decision-making, and engineering execution. You'll work alongside experienced engineers to evaluate tradeoffs, remove obstacles, and ensure the team delivers scalable, maintainable solutions.
