People managementDeliveryArchitectureHiring

Engineering leadership is a make-or-break hire. Through our executive search practice we run a research-led, often confidential process to find managers with both a strong IC background and a real record of growing and delivering with teams.

We recruit EMs, senior EMs, and directors across both markets.

What to look for in engineering managers

  • A track record of growing and retaining engineers
  • Delivery: planning, execution, and quality
  • Enough technical depth to earn trust
  • Coaching and feedback skills
  • Communication across functions and time zones

Compensation benchmarks

In India, engineering managers typically earn ₹35–70 LPA; in the US, roughly $170k–$260k base.

Ranges are indicative and vary by city, seniority, and company. We benchmark every requirement to your specific market and level.
