Software Engineering Manager .NET
Lone Wolf is looking to hire a Software Engineering Manager to lead and manage a small, focused team responsible for maintaining and enhancing our e-signature platform. Built on Azure, .NET, and Angular, this platform is a mission-critical part of the real estate transaction experience, enabling agents, brokers, and their clients to sign documents securely, reliably, and with full legal validity. You will be part of a lean, fast-moving product development team, balancing day-to-day operational excellence with a steady stream of enhancements that keep the product secure, performant, and delightful to use. Your work will focus on solutions that are simple, intuitive, easy to maintain, responsive, reliable, scalable, and performant. You will play a central role across the software development life cycle, mentoring your team, safeguarding platform stability, and helping shape the ongoing evolution of a product our customers depend on every day.
THIS MAY BE YOUR DREAM JOB IF:
- You take pride in your reputation for designing simple, elegant solutions and for keeping a mature, established platform healthy, secure, and continuously improving.
- You have high standards for code quality, and you understand that in an e-signature product, correctness, security, and auditability are non-negotiable.
- You enjoy the craft of sustaining engineering, methodically improving reliability, paying down technical debt, and enhancing an existing codebase rather than only building greenfield.
- You consider yourself a fast learner, driven to deepen your knowledge of software architecture, Azure, and Angular, and to keep up with new methods and best practices.
- You enjoy leading, mentoring, and growing a small team, and you are comfortable delegating to experienced engineers while staying hands-on yourself.
- Your friends and colleagues describe you as engaging, a strong communicator who is eager to bring teammates together to figure things out and to represent the team to stakeholders.
- You stay calm and methodical under pressure, whether triaging a production incident or coordinating a time-sensitive fix for a customer-impacting issue.
- You strive for high-quality, rapid output by applying Agile software development with best practices and working alongside like-minded teammates.
- You are curious and pragmatic about AI-assisted engineering, with the ability to craft effective prompts, provide the right context, and apply AI tools responsibly to improve delivery speed and engineering outcomes.
- You are self-motivated and want to work in a small team, yet you are comfortable partnering with other departments, stakeholders, and customers on enhancements, internal tools, and support issues.
AS A SOFTWARE ENGINEERING MANAGER YOU WILL BE ASKED TO:
- Lead and manage a small team of full-stack engineers, coordinating day-to-day work, setting technical direction, and supporting each member's growth through mentorship and regular feedback.
- Maintain and enhance a high-quality, secure, and scalable e-signature platform on the .NET technology stack, keeping it stable, performant, and compliant.
- Work with UI designers and product owners to implement new Angular-based features, deliver enhancements, and resolve defects across the front end.
- Own the reliability and health of the platform, including monitoring, alerting, performance tuning, and root-cause analysis, and drive continuous improvement of uptime and responsiveness.
- Uphold the security, integrity, and auditability essential to an e-signature product, including document integrity, audit trails, authentication, and adherence to relevant e-signature and data-protection standards.
- Operate and enhance the platform on Azure, applying cloud best practices for scalability, cost, resilience, and observability.
- Partner closely with Product and IT teams to plan, coordinate, and schedule deployments, applying rigorous due diligence on quality, performance, and security before eac
