In this Role You Will:
- Orchestrate High-Velocity Workflows: Leverage advanced agentic coding tools (e.g., Cursor, multi-agent environments) to dramatically accelerate feature prototyping, code generation, and test coverage.
- Own the Guardrails & Quality: Act as the ultimate reviewer and architect; define the specifications, establish repo-context guardrails, and review AI-accelerated output for hidden security risks, scale bottlenecks, and architectural alignment.
- Build Scalable Application and Data Layers: Design, build, and maintain our data pipelines and application to service our hundreds of users.
- Bridging the Data: Partner closely with product, client services, and data science teams to transform raw pipeline outputs into meaning.
- Drive Greenfield Engineering: Take complete ownership of designing, building, and launching enterprise-grade applications, moving fluidly between rapid prototyping and bulletproof production systems.
Skills Requirements:
- 2+ years of engineering experience going through the full feature development life cycle: Working with product managers, deciding scope, designing data models and pipeline architectures. Python and SQL Development is a plus
- Proven fluency in using agentic coding tools like Cursor AI and/or claude
- Experience designing, building and launching backend architectures that support multi-tenant, multi-user scenarios through pipeline performance and data quality checks
- Ability to remain agile and move between rapid prototyping and stable production development
- Ability to write technical design documents, perform code reviews, and maintain state of the art engineering practices
- You know the critical questions to ask in order to understand a client's business problem and can show the business impact of your technical solutions through data
- You have crisp written and verbal communication skills and the ability to effectively correspond between technical and non-technical audiences
- Excellent collaboration skills and are open to giving and receiving critical feedback across teams
- You have an eye towards analytics and helping to enable data driven decision making

Entry Level Software Engineering Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level software engineering manager job?
Employers hiring at this level look for candidates who can demonstrate leadership potential, even without years of formal management experience. Internship work where you coordinated a small team, a portfolio showing technical depth, or coursework in project management all give you an edge. Highlight any experience where you took ownership of a deliverable or mentored a peer, and tailor your resume to the specific team size and tech stack in each posting.
Which companies hire entry level software engineering managers?
Companies hiring entry level software engineering managers right now include Copart, ASM, and Intuit, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level tends to come from fast-growing startups building out their first engineering org, mid-size tech companies backfilling promoted managers, and large enterprises with structured new-grad leadership programs.
Are there remote entry level software engineering manager jobs?
Yes, though on-site and hybrid postings still make up a significant share of openings at this level. About 21% of entry level software engineering manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, so candidates who can relocate or commute will see a wider field of options while fully remote roles remain available.
Are these new grad software engineering manager jobs?
Yes, the listings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior software engineering manager roles. A posting is generally new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts internships or academic project leadership toward the requirement, or explicitly accepts a strong portfolio in place of prior management titles. Look for language like 'early career' or 'associate manager' as additional signals.
Which industries hire the most entry level software engineering managers?
Entry Level software engineering manager roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Automotive, and Electronics & Hardware, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors tend to drive entry level management hiring because they scale engineering teams quickly and often promote or hire junior managers to handle team coordination as headcount grows.
