Full Job Description
## Job Description Fabletics is currently looking for**an Engineering Manager.** The Fabletics Ecommerce Technology team builds and operates the digital experiences powering Fabletics across web, mobile app, and ecommerce infrastructure. This role leads two high-impact squads: the Mobile App Platform squad, focused on our native mobile experience, and the FAST (Features and Support Tasks) squad, which owns our bugs process, internal customer support, and ecommerce enhancements. These squads are fast-moving, high-visibility, and directly tied to business outcomes. **How do you fit in?** We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead engineering and QA talent across Mobile App Platform and FAST. This is a people-first role: you own career development, performance, and day-to-day support of engineers and the QA team across both squads from day one. You'll manage the day-to-day rhythm of your squads – standups, sprint ceremonies, project planning, and process health – while advocating for your team's needs and ensuring commitments are delivered on time and at a high quality bar. Your first six months are focused on building relationships and owning Mobile App Platform delivery; by month six, you take on full operational and delivery ownership of FAST as well. Reporting to the VP, Product & Technology, you'll sit on the Fabletics Technology leadership team and help drive team, technical, and process strategy across the organization. The FAST squad operates in a high-availability support environment. Ecommerce doesn't follow a 9-to-5, and this role requires a manager who is accessible for production escalations and time-sensitive bug triage outside of standard business hours. This isn't an every-night commitment, but it is a real part of the job. We take AI seriously, and this role is a big part of why. If you get genuinely excited about how AI is changing the way engineers build, test, and ship, and you want to be the person who drives that adoption across a team, this
