Advantive is seeking a Software Engineering Manager to lead a high-performing development team responsible for our market-leading SaaS platform for specialty manufacturers and distributors. This is a hands-on leadership role focused on driving quality, innovation, and alignment with Advantive’s values across our Israel-based engineering team.
As the most senior technical leader in-region, you’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring technical excellence, maintaining product stability, and fostering a strong connection between our global teams.This is an opportunity to lead with vision and empathy — ensuring our developers are supported, challenged, and empowered to deliver exceptional software that scales.
Responsibilities:
-
Lead and develop a distributed team of engineers through coaching, feedback, and accountability.
-
Partner closely with Product Management, QA, and Customer Success to deliver high-quality features and performance improvements in our SaaS products.
-
Drive technical strategy, disciplined execution, and continuous improvement across development, testing, and deployment processes.
-
Lead an AI-first engineering culture: every developer is an AI developer - prompting, refining, reviewing, and debugging AI outputs as part of daily work.
-
Drive adoption of approved AI tools across the SDLC (planning, coding, testing, documentation, triage, and release), with clear guardrails for security, privacy, and quality.
-
Ensure system performance and platform stability, particularly for our iPaaS and Android applications.
-
Champion modern software development practices, including Agile/Scrum, CI/CD pipelines, and DevOps excellence.
-
Continuously reimagine workflows by asking: "What would this look like if AI did 80% of it?" and implement improvements.
- Lead efforts to resolve product performance and scalability, collaborating with teams across AWS-based environments.
-
Model clear, transparent communication and “extreme ownership” in every initiative — from technical outcomes to team culture.
- Measure outcomes not just by code written, but by value delivered, cycle time reduced, and time reclaimed through AI-enabled ways of working.
-
Actively engage in architectural reviews, code-level design decisions, and technical deep dives to guide teams toward scalable and maintainable solutions.
-
Partner with other Senior Development Managers across Advantive to share best practices, align on architecture standards, and promote consistent engineering excellence across all product lines.
-
Own delivery commitments, quality metrics, and release cadence to ensure predictable execution and continuous improvement.

-
Planning and Management – Highly effective planning and organizational skills.

Flexibility and Hard Work – Operate in a fast-paced, iterative development environment; learn and adapt to new technologies.

-
Experimentation & Rapid Iteration – Iterates fast, fails forward, and shares what works so the team scales learning.
-
Learning Mindset – Treats mastery of AI tools and techniques as a core competency, not an optional curiosity.
-
