As Software Engineering Manager at Zuora, your overall goal is to help your team stay productive and engaged.  Specific responsibilities include:

• identifying ways to improve the tools and processes that the team uses to build, test and release code
• collaborating with Product Managers to contribute to product design as they work with the team to deliver product features
