What This Role Fills
Engineering manager in LATAM focused on delivery execution, reliability, and organizational scalability across distributed engineering teams.

1. Delivery Stabilization
   This manager improves execution predictability across teams by identifying structural bottlenecks, reducing dependency friction, and increasing ownership clarity. The role ensures delivery commitments become reliable and visible.
2. Cross-Team Integration
   Both teams require stronger coordination across architectural and operational boundaries. This manager acts as the connective layer between teams, ensuring work transitions cleanly without handoff failures or unclear accountability.
3. Reliability Chain Repair
   The manager identifies whether delivery instability comes from process gaps, unclear ownership, capacity constraints, weak scoping, or talent mismatches — and fixes the root causes instead of only addressing symptoms.
4. Organizational Change Leadership
   The team needs someone willing to challenge ineffective patterns, push necessary operational or technical changes, and improve execution discipline even under resistance or delivery pressure.
5. LATAM Foundation
   This person helps establish the engineering culture, operational standards, hiring quality, and leadership expectations for the LATAM organization as it scales.

Candidate Skills Profile

Must-Have (Non-Negotiable)

Strong experience managing engineering teams responsible for complex distributed systems or platform infrastructure
Proven history improving delivery reliability, execution consistency, and operational accountability
Hands-on engineering manager — technically credible in architecture discussions, technical reviews, and production problem-solving; not a pure people-manager
Experience stabilizing fragmented or underperforming teams and improving delivery predictability
Strong systems-thinking mindset — able to identify structural bottlenecks across teams, workflows, and ownership models
Experience driving organizational or technical change under resistance
Experience hiring and growing engineering teams in LATAM
Clear and direct communicator capable of surfacing delivery risks, blockers, and operating realities without sugarcoating

Strong Signals

Experience managing 5–10 engineers across related technical areas
Background in real-time or high-scale distributed systems
Experience improving ownership models, delivery workflows, and execution visibility
Strong debugging and operational problem-solving mindset
Ability to balance short-term delivery pressure with long-term reliability improvements
Experience operating in fast-moving environments with evolving architecture and scaling challenges
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and modern engineering operations practices
Experience reducing dependency concentration and improving cross-team coordination

Cultural Fit / Working Style

Not afraid of change — proactively identifies ineffective patterns and pushes toward stronger execution and operational discipline
High agency — sees delivery or reliability risks early and acts without waiting for permission
Transparent communicator — surfaces hard truths around capacity, delivery health, blockers, and ownership gaps clearly and directly
Builder mindset — understands they are helping establish the LATAM engineering foundation and operating culture
Technically credible — earns trust from experienced engineers through judgment, systems thinking, and technical depth
Calm under ambiguity — capable of making decisions with incomplete information while maintaining execution stability
Focused on sustainable systems — improves reliability and predictability instead of depending on heroics
