At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
Lyft Urban Solutions powers the bike-share and scooter-share systems that move millions of people in more than 60 cities worldwide. We built North America's first automated bike-share system and continue to lead the micromobility revolution across the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East. We're not just a technology provider: we build the software and hardware, and in many cities we run the operations that make urban micromobility work at scale.
We're looking for an engineering manager to lead the team that makes it possible for every LUS engineering team to ship with speed and confidence. This team owns how we build quality into the development lifecycle, how we certify and release software across the systems we operate directly and those run by our enterprise partners, how production issues are triaged and resolved end to end, and how our engineers develop and test day to day. You'll bring an engineering mindset to quality and reliability, using tooling, automation, and data to make releases more predictable and production issues faster to resolve.
You'll manage a team of 11 engineers based in Montreal: 5 software engineers in test, 4 quality assurance engineers, and 2 senior software engineers who own end-to-end troubleshooting of complex production issues. This role is a great fit for a manager with a strong software engineering background who wants to multiply the impact of an entire engineering organization.
