Position Details:

Job Title: Engineering Manager

Function/Department: Technology

Employment Type: Full-time

Location: Hyderabad/Bangalore

Key Responsibilities:

We are looking for an Engineering Manager who leads differently - someone who has already internalized that AI changes how software is built, not just what gets built. This role is for a hands-on leader who drives engineering teams to default to AI-first thinking: in how they code, test, review, and ship. You will manage and grow a high-performing engineering team building enterprise-grade platforms on Java, .NET, and Azure, and you will be the person who raises the AI fluency floor of the entire team.

• Set the AI-native engineering standard - AI-assisted development, intelligent test generation, automated code review, and agentic workflows are default practice, not experiments.
• Embed AI tooling into the full SDLC: from requirements parsing to deployment observability.
• Drive end-to-end delivery of scalable enterprise applications; own sprint quality, release velocity, and technical debt trade-offs.
• Make architectural decisions in partnership with Principal Engineers and Solution Architects; be opinionated.
• Actively evaluate emerging AI engineering tools (coding assistants, test generation, semantic search, agentic frameworks) and share learnings across teams.
• Lead and develop a team of engineers and technical leads; own their growth, performance, and culture.
• Champion psychological safety and a bias-for-action culture - high standards and high trust are not a trade-off.
• Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and building the CECI Digital engineering brand.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong hands-on engineering background in Java with solid Azure platform experience.
• You have personally used AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, etc.) and embedded them into team workflows - not piloted them.
• Experience leading engineering teams in agile, high-delivery environments.
• You can read code, review PRs, and engage technically - this is not a purely managerial role.
• A clear point of view on what good AI-native engineering looks like, and the ability to articulate it.
• Experience with microservices, cloud-native patterns, CI/CD, and DevOps practices.
• Prior exposure to regulated industries (insurance, fintech, banking) is a plus - not a gate.

Qualifications:

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent.
• 15 - 20 years in software engineering, with at least 3 years leading teams.
• Exceptional candidates with fewer years and stronger AI depth are welcome.

Why Join Us?:

• Be at the forefront of digital transformation in the insurance industry.
• Lead impactful initiatives that simplify claims processing and enhance customer satisfaction.
• Work alongside experienced professionals in a collaborative, innovation-driven environment.
