Summary

Futurex is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a team of software/firmware engineers building world-class HSM and Key Management products. You'll be the direct people manager for your team - responsible for their day-to-day performance, growth, and delivery. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll balance people management with enough technical fluency to unblock your team and speak credibly to engineering tradeoffs.

What You'll Do
  • Serve as the direct manager for a team of software engineers - own 1:1s, performance reviews, PTO/attendance, and career development
  • Ensure day-to-day accountability: your team shows up, communicates blockers early, and delivers on commitments
  • Own sprint/project planning in partnership with product and program management; keep timelines realistic and on track
  • Identify and resolve delivery risks before they become missed deadlines
  • Partner with senior engineers on technical direction without necessarily writing production code yourself
  • Hire, onboard, and ramp new engineers on the team
  • Escalate resourcing, scope, or cross-team dependency issues to leadership proactively
  • Foster a culture of ownership, quality, and accountability

Requirements

What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years managing software or firmware engineers, ideally in a regulated, security-sensitive, or hardware-adjacent industry
  • Strong track record of hitting delivery timelines and managing performance/accountability issues directly and fairly
  • Comfortable reading technical work (code reviews, architecture docs) even if not actively coding
  • Excellent communication skills - comfortable delivering hard feedback and escalating risk early
  • Experience with agile/scrum delivery methodologies
  • Prior engineering background (CS degree or equivalent experience) preferred but not required if management track record is strong
  • Experience managing distributed/remote engineering teams
  • Background in cryptography, PKI, HSMs, or payments/security industries
  • Experience with performance improvement plans and difficult personnel conversations

Benefits
  • Health, dental, vision, life, and short/long-term disability insurance
  • Paid vacation, holidays, and sick leave
  • Competitive compensation and opportunities for advancement
  • Retirement plan with employer contribution match
  • Welcoming, family-style corporate culture uniquely suited to fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and motivated individuals
  • One of San Antonio's "Best Places to Work" for nine consecutive years
