Our software runs at tens of thousands of retail stores worldwide. If you have used self-checkout at a major warehouse club, paid at a Fortune 500 big-box retailer, or shopped at a global grocery chain or apparel brand, you have likely used our software products. It is the retail commerce platform we build at TGCS, powering point of sale, mobile, self-service, and back-of-store operations for many of the world's largest retailers. As a Software Engineering Manager you will: * * Delivery and execution . Engineering execution, the milestone plan, sprint tracking, technical risk, and quality. You are accountable and responsible. * The team . Hiring, performance, compensation, career development, and the hard conversations. You take action early. * Technical fluency . You stay close enough to the code to be useful in design reviews, debug a production issue, and challenge a tradeoff. You partner with Principal Engineers on standards. * Product reality. You know the architecture, the backlog, your customers, and how the product performs in the market. * Production support. You own customer escalations affecting your scope and meet SLAs., * Engineering owns delivery. The vertical chain (VP, Senior Director, Director, EM, Engineers) owns outcomes. There is no PMO running our schedules. Accountability follows control. * Horizontal teams scale us, not own us. You will ownend-to-end delivery. Technical Program Managers, Quality, DevOps, and Principal Engineers coordinate, automate, architect, and unblock. They support delivery; they do not own it. * AI removes overhead, not accountability. Weinvest heavily in agentic tooling for status, risk detection, test generation, and reporting. The goal is to reduce the coordination tax on engineers and managers.
