Our web engineering team works closely with brand designers and our business teams to make Asana’s public web presence the best in class to get people to start and succeed at using Asana. We love building robust, beautiful, global, and compelling experiences for our visitors. We’re focused on supporting our growing self-serve business needs by delivering scalable systems end-to-end for Asana public properties.

As a manager on the Web Engineering Seed team, you’ll focus on developing the excellent engineering team around you and collaborating with our business stakeholders. You are passionate about helping others contribute more and develop as web engineers as well as human beings. You enjoy the challenge of balancing speed of execution with quality while building scalable solutions to support Asana’s growing business needs. You should be as enthusiastic about recruiting and building a team as you are about the challenging technical problems that you and your team will solve.

This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. Along with most Asanas, you’ll work from this office in person on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays. If you're interviewing for this role, your Talent Acquisition Partner will share more about the in-office requirements.

What you’ll achieve

  • Manage a team of 3-5 engineers on the web engineering team
  • Contribute to driving our growth by delivering high performing, SEO, and localized content to help our Asana users get help, invite others to collaborate, and upgrade their plans.
  • Partner with our business teams across Marketing, Sales, Support and Brand to drive retention and expansion of existing customers.
  • Coach engineers in their technical and professional development
  • Master the arts of delegation and scaling yourself aided by our strong team and things like Asana’s Areas of responsibility (“AOR”) system
  • Work closely with recruiting to grow the team, including sourcing candidates, interviewing candidates, and onboarding new employees

About you

  • 5+ years of relevant engineering experience with websites and/or applications in React and Next.js, or similar technologies and frameworks.
  • 2+ years experience managing an engineering team. CMS experience is a plus.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with business partners and brand design in an agile environment
  • Kind and intellectually mature
  • Willing and able to dive into the code yourself
  • Focused on maximizing impact for yourself, your team, and Asana as a whole
  • Equipped with the intelligence, empathy, integrity, and technical chops required to quickly earn the trust of a technically astute team
  • Comfortable with ambiguity; you enjoy figuring out what needs to be done—and then doing it

What we’ll offer
