• Supervise development tasks such as software design, prototyping, coding, trouble shooting, system configuration and unit testing of product features.
• Plan and execute projects by ensuring that developers have appropriate product and technical specifications, direction, and resources to deliver products effectively.
• Establish realistic estimates while ensuring that projects remain on track to meet deadlines.
• Manage day-to-day execution of projects. This includes tracking problems and driving resolutions.
• Actively participate in requirements analysis and break projects down into smaller components and help estimate tasks.
• Track and report project status and propose mitigation actions to turn around slipping projects.
• Develop a stellar software engineering team. Provide leadership, set team policies, coach and mentor the team, have weekly 1:1 meetings and resolve conflicts.
• Participate as part of our Release Management Team to define releases, schedule upgrades and create production deployments plans.
• Troubleshoot production problems, including the allocation of team resources to ensure timely resolution of any problems.
Additional Responsibilities:
• Work with other technology managers to define organizational best practices and implement those practices on your team.
• Communicate effectively within the IT Team and facilitate information sharing with TechSoup Global staff and directors.
Skills:
We are looking for an experienced professional who can understand our business and technical needs and establish project direction, scope, timing and staffing that will enable us to have successful projects completed on-time and in-budget. You should have NetSuite implementation experience and team management roles previously and should be familiar with all aspects of these types of projects including various project management and systems development methodologies.

• 6+ years of software development experience, with at least 2 years of NetSuite implementation experience.
• 2+ years of management experience with at least 1 years managing a team using an Agile methodology, preferably Scrum.
