The posting

MEET BENEVITY

Benevity is the way the world does good, providing companies (and their employees) with technology to take social action on the issues they care about. Through giving, volunteering, grantmaking, employee resource groups and micro-actions, we help most of the Fortune 100 brands build better cultures and use their power for good. We’re also one of the first B Corporations in Canada, meaning we’re as committed to purpose as we are to profits. We have people working all over the world, including Canada, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States and more!

Benevity is on a dynamic growth trajectory, where embracing change is part of our DNA. We're looking for a talented Software Development Manager to lead multiple engineering teams in a fast-paced, collaborative, diverse and inclusive environment. The ideal candidate has a robust software development background, including AI-led development, and strong experience in cloud infrastructure. Our teams are fungible: they work on developer experience (DevX) and SDLC improvements as well as core business capabilities, including financial services and business-layer features that empower companies (and their employees) to make a trusted positive impact across the globe. You'll work closely with technical leaders, product leaders and stakeholders to deliver value that exceeds client expectations. We're looking for a delivery-driven, accountable leader who communicates clearly, juggles multiple priorities with ease, and uses AI tooling to scale their impact, all while bringing a positive, can-do attitude to the team.

What you’ll do:

- Lead multiple teams in the AI-DLC process, championing AI-forward ways of working to deliver software solutions at pace across DevX/SDLC and core business work

- Own delivery outcomes for your teams: set clear commitments, track them, and follow through

- Provide direct people leadership: recruiting, performance management, team culture and engagement, budget and cost control

- Develop and coach team leads and senior engineers, building leadership depth across your teams

- Move people and capacity between teams as priorities shift, keeping teams correctly resourced and skilled, and flag resourcing issues to senior leadership

- Own internal adoption and enablement of releases, partnering with Product, Support, Customer Success and other internal teams on readiness, documentation, training and communication

- Maintain the technical depth to engage credibly across domains, validate assumptions, and guide sound technology decisions that balance business, engineering and architectural objectives and Benevity standards, governance and controls

- Coordinate prioritization and scheduling with product management, and understand current and future business context so resourcing and cost decisions align with business needs

- Provide visibility into team execution and release adoption through regular (weekly, monthly) performance measures and reporting, aligned to the Benevity Scorecard and Playbook

- Use AI tooling in your own work (planning, reporting, analysis, communication) to scale your impact, and coach your teams to do the same

- Ensure teams commit time to engineering-led innovation and carry promising PI (passion & innovation) projects through to completion

What you’ll bring:

- Hands-on experience with agentic and AI-assisted software development, and with using AI tooling to scale your own leadership work

- A successful track record leading multiple engineering teams working with cloud-based technologies

- End-to-end SaaS product development experience, at scale, in enterprise environments

- A strong delivery mindset: you're accountable, follow through on commitments, and get results across competing priorities

- A track record of driving internal adoption and enablement of new tools, platforms or releases

- Comfort leading teams across DevX/SDLC and product-facing work, and shifting capacity between them

- Excellent written and verbal communication, including with non-technical stakeholders

- The ability to multitask and reprioritize without losing sight of what matters most

- Passion for developing people, building team culture and engagement, and building technology teams in high-growth companies

- Technical knowledge, including at a code level, to validate assumptions and guide sound technology decisions

- Empathy, positivity and self-awareness, plus the ability to build business context that fosters a sense of team excellence

- A passion, not pedantry, for development methodologies, with the ability to adapt your approach

- Satisfaction in leaving code, processes, and people better than when you got there, and curiosity about the latest technologies and best practices

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
