At Hublo, I have worked in various setups, managing small squads to overseeing two teams (one with 6 developers and another with 5), each with a hybrid model where some members are on-site and others work remotely. I’m fully remote and typically go on-site 2 to 3 days a month. The teams have a mix of seniority levels, which enables diverse discussions and a focus on addressing different skill sets and needs. Key Responsibilities and Achievements as an Engineering Manager: - Team Evolution and Delivery Improvement: Guided the team through a transition from Scrum (achieving over 80% sprint success) to a Kanban framework with a Lean mindset, implementing a one-piece flow strategy to optimize lead time and maximize impact. - Cross-functional Collaboration: Partnered closely with stakeholders across Sales, Customer Success, Product Management, and Marketing to provide necessary context to the development teams. This empowered them to make informed decisions on which opportunities to prioritize based on impact. - Focus Shift to Production Stability: Facilitated a shift in focus from feature delivery to a production-first mindset when we observed a rise in bug creation. Led initiatives to enhance product performance and stability, which directly contributed to improved user satisfaction and a higher Net Promoter Score (NPS). - Hiring and Staffing: Responsible for staffing my teams and serving as the key liaison between the technical team and recruitment staff during hiring processes, ensuring alignment on skill requirements and team culture fit.
