Job description

Web Development Manager

Location : Raleigh, NC (onsite)

Reports To : VP of Engineering and CTO

Employment Type : Full-Time | Exempt

Travel : Minimal (a few times a year)

Kelaca is partnering with a fast-scaling technology innovator based in Raleigh, NC to find a Web Development Manager ready to lead at the intersection of enterprise software, heavy industry, and product-driven transformation. Our client builds software that powers asset-intensive industries. They’re expanding their web product lines and adding people leaders who can elevate delivery while staying close to the code. You’ll lead one web development group and its partnered QA engineers, owning delivery end-to-end and shaping the bar for code quality, reliability, and velocity across a product area.

  • Team scope : You will directly manage a cross-functional web / QA group; typical span ranges 7–20 engineers depending on the product line.
  • Focus mix : ~60% people / process leadership, ~40% technical direction and review.
  • Collaboration : Close partnership with Product and Professional Services; frequent stakeholder communication.

What Success Looks Like

30–90 days

  • Build trust with engineers and cross-functional peers; learn architecture, codebases, and release processes.
  • Establish working agreements and rituals (refinement, planning, demos, retros) with clear Definition of Ready / Done.
  • Begin guiding technical solutioning and leading thoughtful, consistent code reviews.
  • 90–180 days

  • Predictable sprint delivery with visible throughput trends and tighter variance.
  • Raise the engineering bar : review standards, automated testing improvements, CI / CD hygiene, and observability baselines.
  • Measurable reductions in cycle time and escaped defects; improved incident response and post-incident learning.
  • Individual growth plans in place with regular feedback cadences.
  • 12 months

  • Team ships on schedule with high quality and low operational burden.
  • Architecture and tooling choices enable faster delivery and simpler maintenance.
  • Healthy engagement and retention; emerging leaders identified and developed.
  • Strong satisfaction from Product and Professional Services stakeholders.
  • Core outcomes & metrics

  • Delivery predictability : stable stories committed vs. achieved; clear burndown / burnup.
  • Flow : improved lead time and cycle time; PR review SLAs met; lower change failure rate.
  • Quality & reliability : reduced defect density and escaped defects; faster MTTR; healthy on-call outcomes and release health.
  • Team health : engagement, growth progress, and hiring quality.
  • What You'll Do :

  • Own delivery execution for a product area : backlog health, estimation, risk management, and release readiness.
  • Lead and grow a combined web + QA group (7–20 engineers) to plan, build, test, and release high-quality software.
  • Stay hands-on (light IC) : perform code reviews, pair on complex problems, run architecture spikes, and unblock teams with practical guidance.
  • Raise quality : establish review standards; expand automated testing; improve CI / CD pipelines (build, test, deploy, rollback); strengthen observability (logging, metrics, tracing).
  • Partner for great UX : work with Product / Design to ensure intuitive, accessible experiences.
  • Coach & hire : set goals, give timely feedback, grow engineers; recruit and onboard top talent as teams evolve.
  • Champion reliability : drive root-cause analysis and learning-focused post-incident reviews.
  • Guide architecture pragmatically : balance near-term delivery with maintainability across C# / .NET or Java / Spring services and React / TypeScript front ends.
  • How You Work

  • You remove friction, clarify priorities, and enable deep work.
  • You use delivery and quality metrics as instruments for improvement, not micromanagement.
  • You communicate clearly and create alignment across engineering, Product, QA, and customer-facing teams.
  • You favor consistent rituals that drive real improvement.
  • You model ownership and calm during incidents and high-stakes deliveries.
  • You embrace modern tooling and AI-assisted workflows to accelerate safe, high-quality development.
  • Skills, Experience, and Tools That Matter

    Minimum qualifications

  • Bachelor’s in CS or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years directly managing engineers in web development, with demonstrated technical leadership.
  • Proven experience leading teams delivering production web software at scale.
  • Strong background with C# / .NET and / or Java / Spring, React and TypeScript .
  • Solid grasp of OO design, patterns, and pragmatic architecture.
  • Hands-on with CI / CD (build, test, deploy, rollback), branching strategies, and code quality gates.
  • Familiar with observability (logging, metrics, tracing) and secure coding practices.
  • Team leadership & delivery

  • Backlog refinement, estimation, planning; managing dependencies and risks.
  • Code review standards and PR workflows.
  • Coaching (1 : 1s), performance feedback, growth plans.
  • Collaboration with Product and QA on scope, acceptance criteria, and release readiness.
  • Nice to have

  • Experience modernizing legacy systems or migrating between .NET and Java ecosystems.
  • Exposure to Azure / AWS, containers, and infrastructure-as-code.
  • Experience partnering with Professional Services / customer-facing teams for smoother launches.
  • What It's Like to Work Here

    Work Environment :

  • Cross-functional collaboration with strong engineering culture
  • Growth-focused and fast-moving environment
  • Team Culture :

  • Results-driven, mission-aligned, and supportive
  • Builders who value autonomy, clarity, and continual improvement
  • Simply put, we’re a very successful software company, we’re not going to settle for ‘B’ and ‘C’ players. If you know you’re an ‘A’ player, and you want to work for a company that’s also an ‘A’ player, we’re waiting for you, let’s get to work!

    NO THIRD PARTIES.
