We believe that our managers must have a technical background to have productive conversations with our engineers, but we don’t expect them to be coding all the time.
Our usual team structure consists of an Engineering Manager, Product Manager, Agile Delivery Manager, 3-4 Software Engineers and 1-2 QA Engineers.
