Engineering Manager

Based in Gurugram, you will lead our newly established software team (currently four engineers) as we enter an exciting new phase of expansion. We are seeking an Engineering Manager who will build a strong, happy, high-performing team, creating the environment, clarity, and support that enables people to do their best work. This is a people-first role: you will have proven strength in leadership, scaling teams, and developing others. You will report to the Head of Software Product Engineering.

Aurora’s mission is to help drive the energy transition through data-driven energy market intelligence and software that supports decision-makers across the power system. You will partner closely with colleagues in Oxford and across the business to help the team build customer-facing software that delivers on this mission.

Our platform includes microservices and modern web applications (TypeScript/Node, React, AWS). While this is a leadership-focused role, you will still do some hands-on senior engineering work, contributing code when needed, leading by example on quality, and helping the team make sound technical decisions

You will establish the people and process foundations for an effective engineering team: regular 1:1s, coaching and feedback, inclusive ways of working, and strong delivery practices (planning, stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives). A key part of the role is growing the team through hiring, attracting, assessing, and onboarding great talent in Gurugram.
