What the job involves
- We are looking for an Engineering Manager who wants to join and lead our Adoption team (team Adore)
- Whether it's AI-driven solutions that simplify n8n, initiatives that spin the growth loop faster, or features that the n8n community loves, Team Adore focuses on boosting adoption, activation, and retention, ensuring users fall in love with n8n more deeply and effortlessly
- Act as a leader, fostering a culture of innovation, experimentation, and learning within the engineering team, while also contributing to improving engineering culture and best practices
- Drive architectural decisions and ensure high-quality standards as well as spending around 20% of your time still being hands on
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design and the rest of the engineering teams to drive n8n forward to ultimately build an amazing product
Our take
A recent trend in IT has been an increased effort to streamline workflows by improving integration between the multiple apps which people use. n8n was founded so that users can find a balance between building systems and having autonomy in their work whilst saving time through the rapid development of complex workflows.
n8n is certainly not the first to pick up on this trend - competition includes startups like Zapier, RapidAPI, and Tray.io- but n8n believes that its product is a cut above the rest of the market, offering more flexibility and robustness at a reduced price. The company also has the leading low-code automation tool in this field.
n8n's long-term approach to the market is set to be based on two key strategies, focusing efforts on its flagship platform, ensuring that it stays ahead of the competition in meeting the demand for its integration services whilst also pushing towards diversification. It plans to launch a version of its platform under a SaaS subscription model. n8n also looks to introduce a network of consulting, support and integration services, and if the company can execute this joint approach well, it will be well-set to continue pushing ahead in the market.
