DescriptionE1 is an Australian-born SaaS platform and one of AFR's 2022 Best Places to Work in Australia and NZ. Headquartered in Richmond, Melbourne, our ambition is to become the global industry standard procurement platform in the commercial construction industry. Our platform connects Builders, Subcontractors and Suppliers and supports better decision-making by all parties.
The roleThis is an exciting role for an Engineering Manager to lead the engineering function within one of our Product-Engineering teams. Prism is concerned with attracting progressive builders, subbies, and suppliers, who are looking for smarter ways to participate in commercial construction tendering and procurement.
As an Engineering Manager, you'll make a real, measurable difference to thousands of users by leading the software engineers in our ways of working from Agile, to TDD, clean code, to collaboration. In addition to some technical leadership, you will be responsible for the growth, development, and delivery of the people in your team.
You will measure your success by the outcomes that your team achieves, rather than the amount of code it produces. We bring engineers into the conversation early and it's everyone's responsibility to think big-picture and be strategic.
We're looking for smart people who are keen to collaborate - it's that simple. The ability to champion our values matters to us; we care about our team and you'll be joining a group of people who want each other to be happy and successful.

We've started building out a design system to help power us ahead on that journey. You can see the progress at
