Software Development Manager

You will be responsible for ensuring the effective execution of web development and DevSecOps functions for all our platforms while fostering a high-performance, engaged and collaborative team.

This role reports directly into the CTO and combines people management (career development, team morale, performance reviews) with technical stewardship (engineering best practices, technical strategy, and technical collaboration) and delivery oversight (schedule, dependencies and risks).

Rather than being hands-on with development, this role focuses on mentorship, technical decision-making, and fostering collaboration between teams such as Web, DevSecOps, Edge Software and Hardware.

This role is a management, non-IC role responsible for guiding the technical direction of the engineering team while also driving team performance, culture, and professional growth. This is a full time permanent role based out of Sydney with hybrid working from home and our office in Chatswood.

Your Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and manage cross-functional technical teams to ensure operational efficiency, stability, and high performance.
• Recruit, mentor, and develop team members, fostering engagement, career growth, and alignment with company values.
• Establish effective communication and reporting practices to ensure transparency, accountability, and team collaboration.
• Drive the development and adoption of engineering best practices, design standards, and DevSecOps processes.
• Oversee project delivery schedules, track progress, manage dependencies, and ensure timely releases.
• Collaborate across software, hardware, and DevOps teams to align on system architecture and integration.
• Ensure technical decisions support long-term business goals and maintain alignment with strategic objectives.
• Contribute to roadmap planning, budgeting, and resource allocation to meet future delivery and growth targets.
• Champion technical governance, including architecture reviews, risk assessments, and non-functional requirement standards.
• Lead process improvement initiatives through retrospectives, performance metrics, and implementation of new practices.
• Manage infrastructure costs, support high-level troubleshooting, and drive automation to improve team efficiency.
• Facilitate key team ceremonies including standups, sprint planning, demos, and strategic planning sessions.
