    Job Summary



    At Getty Digital, we're re-imagining how we can use software to provide access to our collections and research. We intend to provide a deeply connected, consistent experience for scholars, researchers, and enthusiasts as they explore the complex information held across the Getty.

    At Getty Digital we believe that the best software is built by teams with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and ideas. We strive to provide an environment where all team members have the opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute to the software we build and our overall vision.

    We are looking for an engineering manager to join an existing team of software engineers focused on the narrative, interpretive, and visitor-focused experiences across the Getty. This team is responsible for supporting and improving the core website, which includes exhibitions, digital publications, and other initiatives. They also maintain Quire, Getty's open-source digital publication platform.

    As an engineering manager reporting to the Assistant Director, Software and UX, you'll manage a team of five software engineers, empowering and supporting them in their work together to build software products. This role is human-focused, with an emphasis on team dynamics, accountability, and priority-setting. This is a hybrid role, with a current schedule of one day a week on-site at Getty's fabulous campus in Los Angeles and the other days remote.

    In this role, you'll work closely with a product manager, content team, and our UX team. Your primary task will be to keep the team productive and focused on the product roadmap, aligning engineering resources with the project schedule. You'll oversee day-to-day priorities, team oversight, work estimation, and task assignment, as well as overseeing the work of external consultants and developers as needed. You'll also manage team growth-helping existing staff grow, providing advice and support in their professional development, and managing hiring searches as positions become available. This role will also help represent the work of the team outward-both within the organization and externally, showcasing Getty's work in both software and cultural heritage. You'll also write code as time permits, often pair-programming or focusing on areas where you can use your expertise to make the team more effective.

    Our primary software stack is and Nuxt with occasional backend implementations in Python, Node, REST APIs, and custom search interfaces using Elasticsearch. Our applications are hosted in AWS and built within Docker containers. Our primary infrastructure tools are Github, CircleCI, Kubernetes, Jira, and Confluence.

    The Getty is among the most prestigious cultural heritage organizations in the world, dedicated to furthering the study of the history of art. You will work on an amazing campus amongst fabulous art, architecture, and archives, collaborating with world-class scientists, curators, librarians, archivists, and academics. We offer 4 weeks of vacation a year, every other Friday off, excellent benefits, and a very strong dedication to balancing work and personal life.
