About Cozey
At Cozey, we’re all about empowering possibilities in your home and making furniture shopping as easy and enjoyable as possible. Our thoughtfully designed, stylish furnishings adapt to evolving lifestyles, combining innovation with a commitment to great value and customer service. As a fast-growing, online-first brand, our success is driven by a team that shares our passion for redefining the furniture experience.
The mission of the Engineering Manager at Cozey
As an Engineering Manager at Cozey, you’ll drive impact through a balance of deep technical expertise, strong people’s leadership, and a sharp focus on business outcomes. You’ll design systems, write and review code, and guide a high-performing team through complex challenges with clarity and purpose. This role combines hands-on technical leadership with a strong product mindset - partnering with cross-functional teams to solve real business problems and deliver pragmatic, high-impact solutions that enhance the customer experience. You won’t just measure success by technical delivery - you’ll be accountable for how engineering decisions drive business results. As a culture carrier, you’ll lead by example: setting technical direction, driving execution, nurturing talent, and instilling a strong sense of purpose and clarity across the team.
What you'll be doing
- Define and drive the technical direction for your team, ensuring alignment with Cozey’s strategy. Lead the execution of complex initiatives through sound architectural decisions and hands-on problem-solving to deliver measurable business value.
- Collaborate with engineering, product, design, and operations to uncover real user and operational pain points, applying problem-first thinking and business acumen to lead focused engineering efforts that deliver high-impact solutions with clarity, precision, and urgency.
- Proactively identify technical and operational gaps in your team’s domain and work with your team to craft well-thought-out solutions, not just execute tasks handed down.
- Drive technical excellence through thoughtful code reviews, while also fostering team growth through role-specific expectations, regular 1:1s, and ongoing feedback and coaching.
- Hire, grow, and retain exceptional engineers by fostering a high-performance, inclusive team culture. Own the scaling strategy for your team from recruiting top talent to defining the right structure and processes that enable sustainable, high-velocity execution.
- Motivate your team with clarity, ownership, and purpose-creating an environment where engineers feel empowered, mission-driven, and energized to do their best work.
We'd love to hear from you if you have
- 5+ years of experience in software development and building scalable backend systems, preferably using TypeScript and Node.js.
- 2+ years of experience as a hands-on technical leader or engineering manager, with a track record of building, scaling, and leading high-performing teams in fast-paced environments.
- A deeply customer and business-obsessed mindset that anchors your technical and leadership decisions - you prioritize what truly matters to users and the business, driving impact through smart trade-offs and pragmatic solutions.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills - you work effectively across engineering, product, design, and operations to align teams and drive results.
- Demonstrated people leadership skills - from setting direction and providing feedback to supporting growth and building strong, cohesive teams.
- A passion for mentoring and growing engineers, fostering a culture of ownership, inclusion, and continuous improvement.
We care about you
- You will receive a competitive salary along with a comprehensive benefit package.
- Endless opportunities for personal and professional growth in a fast-growing start-up.
- A generous PTO policy that allows you the time you need to recharge.
- A role where your strategies and decisions directly influence the company’s operations and growth.
- A workspace where everyone is welcomed, heard, and valued.
