Lead an engineering team building global time and attendance platforms and pay computation systems.
Are you a seasoned engineering leader who thrives on building high-performing teams and solving complex, real-world problems at massive scale? We are looking for a Software Development Manager to lead an engineering team within TimeHub, owning critical components of the Time & Attendance ecosystem.

* Define and prioritize the product roadmap — make crisp trade-offs between new capability development, tech debt reduction, and operational hardening in partnership with product, payroll, and compliance stakeholders.
* Drive cross-team alignment across TimeHub, Scheduling, DLS, WSTT, PXT, and Operations — removing blockers and ensuring seamless delivery across the time-to-pay pipeline.
