Through unrivaled collaboration and unwavering trust, we push the boundaries of what's possible to empower our team and support our customers in building a safer global future.\nTwo Six Technologies is seeking a hands-on Engineering Leader to manage the team responsible for Trusted Keep, our zero trust data security product protecting some of the most sensitive information in the federal government. Trusted Keep gives organizations a single, unified way to lock down data wherever it lives, whether on-premise or across multiple clouds, so that only authorized people and systems can ever reach that data. Trusted Keep replaces the patchwork of point security tools organizations rely on today with one proven system that's been protecting national security missions around the clock for years. This role has a dual focus on people leadership and technical contribution. You will coach, mentor, and ensure strong technical execution by the team, while partnering closely with Product leadership to shape and drive the roadmap. You will also stay hands-on as an active senior-level contributor, close enough to the code to lead by example.\nThis is a remote position with travel a few times a year. You need to live in the U.S., ideally on the East Coast.\nWhat you will do:\nLeading the team: having regular one on one meetings, coaching, guiding career development, and building a strong team culture centered on collaboration\nOwning team composition: interviews, hiring, and advocating for the team with leadership as needs evolve\nManaging performance and compensation: conducting reviews, delivering feedback, recommending promotions\nCollaborating with Product leadership: shaping the roadmap, estimating and prioritizing work, negotiating scope and timelines, reporting status\nOwning engineering delivery: supporting team through all phases from discovery & design through release, refining and holding team to engineering standards, unblocking work when necessary\nContributing at a senior level: designing and implementing complex features while helping to raise the engineering skills of other team members\nPartnering with senior engineering leadership: on technical direction, architecture, and championing mature engineering practices (CI/CD, QA discipline, infrastructure-as-code)\nWhat you will need:\n10+ years of related IT and Engineering experience\nExperience as an Engineering Manager leading a single team of remote and on-site engineers, with both performance and delivery ownership\nBackground in systems languages (Go, Rust, Java, C++, or C#) and distributed systems, sufficient to follow technical designs and verify engineering estimates in any of these languages\nA proven track record of shipping quality software on time\nExperience growing and improving an engineering team without disrupting delivery\nExperience partnering closely with strong senior engineers on technical direction, balancing collaboration and discussion with the need to make decisions and execute\nExperience with Product Engineering and Agile practices, a history of working closely with Product leads\nWhat would be nice:\nGo experience\nLinux systems admin: permissions and mounts, OS-level debugging\nCloud platform experience\nInfrastructure-as-code tooling (Ansible, Terraform, Terragrunt)\nSecurity domain experience: HSMs, cryptography, mTLS, PKI, and certificate lifecycle management\nKMS/HSM internals: envelope encryption, key wrapping, key hierarchies, and key lifecycle\nKMIP protocol experience\nOAuth2/OIDC and identity provider integration (e.g., Keycloak)\nWebAuthn/FIDO2\nPolicy engines (OPA/Rego)\nMessaging systems (NATS, JetStream)\nExperience managing engineers building for hardened-hardware, on-premise, or non-cloud-native deployments\nYou are a strong fit for this role if you have led a remote engineering team of similar size before, with real ownership over both performance and delivery. You have a strong, systems-level engineering background (using languages like Go, Rust, Java, C++, or C#), and can lead code reviews and architecture discussions. Experience in security, cryptography, or identity systems is a strong plus, and what matters most is that you can build a high-performing, well-supported team while staying close enough to the technical details to ensure the team is delivering well designed, high quality, and secure solutions.\nWe write position descriptions to give you the fullest picture we can of what the role entails.
