Xero, Trade Me, Vista Group, Pushpay, and similar employers are among the most consistent hirers for this role in New Zealand.
Around 52% of active New Zealand listings advertise some remote or hybrid flexibility, though most product engineering work is asynchronous and ticket-driven, and Xero and Trade Me both run distributed teams that hire across New Zealand and accept candidates coming home from OE.
Demand is stable rather than growing. EM hiring tracks engineering headcount closely. The companies most actively hiring EMs are scale-ups between 50 and 500 engineers that are formalising their management structure. At larger established companies, EM roles open through natural attrition rather than headcount expansion.
Stripe, Google, and Workday are the most consistent senior-level EM hirers in Dublin. HubSpot and Intercom hire at volume as they grow their product engineering teams. LinkedIn and Meta hire EMs for their EMEA engineering functions.
Around 52% of active listings advertise hybrid working. Team coaching, hiring panels, and cross-functional alignment are significantly more effective in person. Fully remote Engineering Manager positions exist but are less common than for individual contributor engineering roles.
A demonstrable track record of shipping product with a team and developing engineers who were promoted under your management. Companies that are more mature in their EM hiring look specifically for managers who can point to engineers they grew from junior to senior level, not just managers who delivered projects on time.
