Overview
Join to apply for the Engineering Manager role at Solve Education! Foundation .
We are looking for an innovative and hands-on Engineering Manager who is passionate about using AI and advanced technologies to create scalable, impactful solutions in education. This role requires strong technical expertise, leadership, and a problem-solving mindset to guide our engineering team in delivering high-quality, mission-driven products. We value adaptability, ownership, and a commitment to continuous improvement. If you thrive on building systems, leading teams, leveraging cutting-edge technology, and solving complex challenges that change lives, this is your opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
Before You Apply - This role is not light, routine, or heavily guided. You’ll be expected to handle ambiguity, move quickly across multiple priorities, and deliver production-ready solutions with little to no revision. You must be able to stay calm under pressure, take full responsibility for your tasks, and deliver reliable outputs — even when requirements shift mid-week or feedback requires immediate turnaround. If you’re seeking a role that will stretch your technical capacity, sharpen your problem-solving, and accelerate your growth, and you’re prepared to meet high expectations, we want to hear from you.
