Engineering Manager (hands-on team leader)

Daisy is a modern, full-service condo and co-op property management. We combine thoughtful people, new technology, and hard-won processes to make buildings work for their residents—not the other way around. Since our summer 2021 launch, we’ve been the fastest-growing property management company in New York, and we’re not slowing down now. If you’re looking for a challenge and an opportunity with a devoted, inventive, united team, Daisy might be the place for you. Join us, and let’s make a lasting impact on the way people live together.

As an engineering manager, you’ll join to code and lead engineers in an empowered product squad. You’ll play a big part in architecting and developing Daisy’s building operating system and our applications stack and work with the team to plan, shape, and deliver impactful outcomes.

As a leader in the team, you are expected to work in one box with your product manager and lead designer and grow the engineers personally and professionally.
