Senior Manager, Engineering

Lead the engineering organisation behind one of Norway’s most trusted clinical platforms - and shape how technology serves clinicians and patients at scale.

As part of the department

CheckWare builds the digital platform that Norway’s largest healthcare providers depend on: digital assessments, patient-reported outcomes, and treatment follow-up. Real clinical workflows. Strict uptime requirements. Real impact - every day.

We’re looking for a Senior Manager to lead an organisation of - Developers, QA, DevOps, Architects, and a Product Owner - distributed across Norway, Poland, and India, headquartered in Trondheim. Your direct reports cover all key disciplines bringing expertise and team spirit.

You’ll be a part of the management group alongside Product, Professional Services, and Sales. You set the direction for how the organisation builds and operates. You also get into the details when a project, an incident, or a person needs it. This is a hands-on leadership role with real scope.

Your Tasks:

• Lead and develop an engineering organisation across three countries - building a culture of accountability, craft, and continuous improvement.
• Own delivery across CheckWare’s product portfolio: balancing roadmap commitments, technical improvements, compliance work, and operational stability.
• Partner closely with Product Management to translate real user needs - clinicians and patients - into a realistic, well-prioritised backlog.
• Ensure sound architectural principles across the organisation, with a clear view of components, responsibilities, interfaces, and system interactions.
• Own DevOps and platform reliability: monitoring, incident response, and infrastructure capacity planning.
• Lead distributed team dynamics - hiring, onboarding, performance management, and retention across Norway, Poland, and India.
• Drive structured adoption of modern engineering practices, including AI-assisted development tooling, across the team.
• Act as a credible technical voice with Professional Services and Sales - supporting pre-sales conversations and customer escalations when management-level involvement is needed.
• Embed security and compliance into how the team designs, builds, and operates - not as an afterthought, but as a core engineering discipline.
• Contribute to resourcing, budgeting, and organisational planning as a full member of CheckWare’s leadership team.
