Engineering Manager - Contact Center Technology (Genesys Cloud)

Genesis10 is currently seeking an Engineering Manager - Contact Center Technology (Genesys Cloud) for a hybrid 3-month contract-to-hire opportunity with a Regional Financial Institution located in Columbus, OH.

Pay range: $60.00-68.00 per hour

Overview:

Our client is seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a team of developers supporting a large-scale, enterprise contact center platform (~3,000 users across 40+ centers).

This is a people-first leadership role focused on driving delivery, removing blockers, and ensuring team success in a fast-paced Agile environment. While the team supports Genesys Cloud CX and API-driven integrations, this role is not hands-on, coding-focused; instead, it requires a leader who can guide technical direction, align priorities, and keep delivery on track.

They are looking for a strong team leader who can step in quickly, stabilize delivery, and act as a key partner in a high-visibility environment.

Responsibilities:

• Lead, mentor, and manage a team of 5-6 developers supporting contact center and API-driven solutions
• Drive Agile delivery execution (sprint planning, standups, prioritization, accountability)
• Act as the primary point of escalation to remove blockers and ensure team productivity
• Partner closely with Product Owners, Scrum Masters, and stakeholders to align on priorities and delivery timelines
• Provide technical oversight and guidance (without being hands-on day-to-day)
• Ensure work is properly scoped, estimated, and aligned to team capacity
• Establish accountability around delivery commitments, timelines, and quality
• Identify gaps in team structure, skillsets, or processes and implement improvements
• Foster a collaborative, high-performing team environment with a focus on ownership and continuous improvement
• Support initiatives across contact center platforms (Genesys Cloud, IVR, call routing) and API/integration workstreams

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in software development, with at least 2+ years leading engineering teams
• Proven experience managing teams of 5+ developers in an Agile environment
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to coach, mentor, and drive accountability
• Experience leading delivery for API, integration, or backend development teams
• Solid understanding of SDLC, Agile methodologies, and modern development practices
• Exposure to contact center technologies (Genesys, NICE, Five9, IVR, call routing, etc.)
• Ability to operate in a fast-paced environment and step in quickly to stabilize and lead a team

Desired skills:

• Certification(s) in Genesys Cloud CX or related IVA/Contact Center technologies
• Genesys Cloud CX certifications (Architect, Developer, or related)
• Experience with Genesys Cloud CX (IVR, routing, or platform exposure)
• Background in contact center platforms or customer experience (CX) technologies
• Familiarity with API architecture, integrations, and cloud-based systems
• Experience in banking, financial services, or large enterprise environments
• Exposure to CI/CD, DevOps, or modern engineering tools
