Engineering Manager - Software

Quin | About the Company Quin is a safety-technology company. Our technology ships inside products from leading global brands across motorcycling, cycling, sport and industrial PPE. We are becoming the primary source of real-world crash data across every protective gear category, and we build the data tools that manufacturers and testing bodies use to engineer safer products and standards. Our engineering and product centre is in Hyderabad, with helmet testing labs in Hyderabad and London, and teams across India, the UK and the US. Why this role exists Our software team builds the apps, cloud services and web tools that turn sensor data from a helmet into a crash alert, a simple NFC tag into a data operations platform for global brands and more. The team has shipped a lot, fast. We are looking to strengthen this team with a leader who will make it consistently excellent: stronger engineers, higher standards and processes that deliver outcomes end to end. You will lead the people and the work. You will hire, grow and hold the bar for every software engineer at Quin, and stay hands-on and close to the code. What you'll own People and performance Lead the software team day to day Grow engineers. Build a culture where everyone owns their work from start to finish, where problem-solving is an obsession, and people and achievements are celebrated. Hiring Own software hiring with senior leadership: plan the roles, run the technical assessments and make the call. Raise the bar with every hire. Engineering quality Set and enforce standards for code review, testing, CI/CD and documentation across mobile, backend and web. Improve quality aggressively. Move the team from manual testing at the end towards automated testing built in from the start. Remove single points of failure. Every critical system has a second owner and documentation that someone else can use. Hands-on engineering Review code and designs every week. Know the codebase well enough to spot risk early. Step in on hard problems: debug a production issue, unblock a stuck feature, or pair with an engineer on a tricky design. Working across Quin Work with the TPM on realistic estimates and capacity, so delivery dates are consistently hit. Work with Product and Design on requirements, playing a key role on what & why, not just how. Work with the Embedded / Platform Lead where app and cloud meet firmware and BLE. Who you are You're a builder of people. You have grit. You're optimistic and honest. You know and can communicate the why. You're still an engineer. (eg You review code every week and would rather work on a hard bug than write a status report.) You're present. (eg You lead from the floor in Hyderabad, and your team always knows where to find you.) This role isn't for you if you want to stop being hands-on, you measure success by headcount, or you need a settled, process-heavy environment to do your best work. Must-haves…
