Our role at SIE is to create and nurture the experiences under the PlayStation brand, a name synonymous with entertainment excellence and creativity.

The role 

We are looking for a strong Software Development Manager to lead high-impact teams within the PlayStation SDK Developer CPU Toolchain department. 

This role is centred on people leadership and operational excellence, rather than hands-on technical ability. This role requires a balanced leader, someone who can manage high-performing teams, and have a solid understanding of development tools. You will be responsible for supporting and developing the team members, including setting goals and ambitions; supporting and mentoring team members across a range of career levels from graduate to staff software engineer. The role requires working with teams in multiple time zones and may require some travel through the year.

  • Lead, mentor, and help develop a team of engineers, fostering a positive and collaborative work environment. 
  • Define team member development and career path opportunities with team members and mentor them to achieve goals. 
  • Work together with other groups and teams across different time zones. 
  • Monitor and review team members' performance, deliver regular performance appraisals. 
  • Manage team capacity planning, hiring, onboarding and ensure effective succession planning for your teams. 
  • Recognize challenges, help remove obstacles, and clarify tasks in situations that are not well defined. 

 

What we are looking for 

  • 3–5+ years of experience managing software development teams. Proven success in people management including mentorship. 
  • Effective leading of multiple Agile teams in software engineering domains. 
  • Outstanding verbal and written communication skills, which encompass presenting to senior leadership, product managers, software engineers, project managers. 
  • Significant experience with software engineering practices, software automation and testing systems (for example, Jenkins). 
  • Enough development tools experience to provide guidance in high-level goal-setting discussions. 
  • A solid understanding of the software development lifecycle and driving reductions in technical debt. 

 

Nice-to-haves 

  • Solid grasp of Confluence, JIRA (or similar project management tools) and support ticket management frontends. 
  • Prior experience with console or PC game development. 
  • Development and debugging tools experience on Windows and/or Linux. 
  • Experience in low-level languages such as Rust and C++. 
  • Knowledgeable about the Clang for LLVM open-source project (or GNU GCC toolchains).
