Talent & Teams·By Seniority·EM
Hire Engineering Managers.
Management as a craft, not a calendar.
Engineering managers for interim leadership, fractional support, or full-time embedding. For teams that grew faster than their structure. Our EMs have run 5–30 person orgs at product companies, and take on interim or fractional leadership: the hiring loop, the growth framework, the on-call rotation that stops burning people.
How it works
The work, in practice.
Interim engineering leadership, team topology, hiring pipelines, performance frameworks, delivery health. Fractional (2–3 days/week) or full-time embedded.

FAQ
Before you ask.
Interim, fractional, or permanent?
All three. Interim through a transition, fractional for a small org, or embed-to-convert if you want to hire them permanently. We support the conversion.
Will they manage Lateral and internal engineers together?
Yes. A common shape when a team and an internal team share a roadmap.
How do you vet managers?
A management debrief with our principals: a real reorg, a real underperformance case, a real hiring miss. War stories, checked against references.
Tell us what has to move.
A 30-minute call with an engineer, not a salesperson. We will map the capacity and ownership the work actually needs.
