We are looking for a short term manager for the GeckoView team who can be both a people manager and an effective project manager, who will draw upon their management and technical experience to help individuals on the team advance in their careers while shipping excellent software.
You’ll be leading a team of hardworking software engineers while working with the senior manager of the Firefox mobile engineering group and coordinating collaboration with interdependent teams.
Responsibility includes the completion of major initiatives on clear timelines and ensuring the software your team delivers is of high quality and is maintainable. This also includes developing and communicating the roadmap, scope, and risks of your team’s projects to leadership.
We are a distributed software development team of 7 mobile platform engineers. Our focus is on bringing the powerful Firefox web browser engine *gecko* onto the Android mobile platform.
Our team is distributed across various time zones in Europe and the US with everyone working remotely from their homes. We use chat, video conferencing, shared documents, and email to communicate.
Work-life balance is important to us, and we respect family time and weekends. Sometimes we work longer hours to respond to high priority needs such as security incidents, but we work hard to make that an exception and not the rule.
