General Manager Job Description

General Managers are operational leaders and primary supervisors for our workforce. They serve as connective tissue between Program Management Offices, Human Resources, and the workforce, ensuring our people are supported, aligned, and empowered to succeed.
This role is people-centric, accountability-driven, and team-first. General Managers focus on workforce readiness, engagement, strategic resourcing, individual development, and team operational performance. They foster an environment where individuals thrive as part of high-performing teams, emphasizing collaboration, clarity of purpose, and well-defined team interactions.

General Managers are responsible for assigning, supporting, mentoring, and developing the people and teams who power day-to-day execution. They ensure teams are structured for flow, resourced appropriately, and empowered to deliver value without unnecessary friction.

Ideal Candidate Profile
We are especially interested in candidates with software engineering experience, who are looking to transition into management. Prior experience as a software engineer, technical contributor, team lead, or engineering-adjacent leader is strongly preferred, but not required. The ideal candidate understands how technical teams operate, how software delivery environment’s function, and how to support engineers while growing into broader people and operational leadership.

The ideal candidate is a respected technical or operational professional who is ready to grow into a broader people leadership role. They understand how high-performing teams work, care deeply about employee development, and can balance empathy with accountability. They are comfortable supporting software engineers and technical teams, but they are equally committed to learning the people operations, workforce planning, and management responsibilities required of a General Manager.

This is a strong opportunity for someone who has built credibility in or around software engineering and is ready to make the jump into management.
