Software Development Manager, FME Engine

As a Software Development Manager, you will oversee the planning, execution, and delivery of technical projects within your team. You’ll collaborate with Product, UX, and other stakeholders to prioritize work, guide technical direction, and ensure smooth delivery.

You’ll also support the growth and well-being of team members through coaching, feedback, and development opportunities. Your leadership will help the team navigate challenges, align with product goals, and continuously improve their practices and performance.

This is a people-first leadership role for someone who is passionate about developing talent, supporting delivery, and fostering collaboration. You’ll also serve as a bridge between your team and the broader organization, helping align business needs with technical implementation.

This is a hybrid role based out of Safe Software's Surrey, BC headquarters. We have an immediate opening and are excited to find the right candidate to join our team.

We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply. Even if you don’t meet every requirement listed, we value your unique experiences and perspectives.

About The Team

The FME Engine team builds and maintains the core of Safe Software’s FME platform, the technology that powers data integration for organizations around the world. As SDM, you’ll lead two Engine teams, which build many of the transformers at the heart of FME. It’s computational, algorithm-rich work written primarily in C++ within the FME codebase. Both teams are strong and highly collaborative, with a habit of tackling problems together rather than working in silos, and they’re looking for a leader who will nurture that culture.
