What's included in the trial?
Every trial is a little different—here’s what Ahmed says about their trial:
7-day trial: we start with a 25–30 min call to map your team, goals and constraints.
We’ll pick one priority (delivery cadence, hiring loop, 1:1s, or growth plans) and ship a quick win. You’ll get a tailored template plus async Q&A with 24h replies. If it’s a fit, we outline a plan for the next 8 weeks. If not, no pressure.
Seasoned Engineering Manager currently working at Zalando (8 years) and previously led teams at Rakuten (3 years), after 8 years as a hands-on Software Engineer. I built and scaled Zalando’s Fashion Search Engine from 2 engineers to a multi-team organization by hiring more than 15 Search Engineers and developing and promoting Managers and Principal Engineers. For the last 5 years I mentored Engineers, Manager, Senior Managers outside my company to navigate the leadership journey.
I help:
• Engineers/ICs make the jump to management with a concrete plan and action items.
• Managers (and managers of managers) untangle org design, performance systems, and cross-org alignment.
Expect direct but empathetic feedback, concrete frameworks (hiring rubrics, roadmap templates, org charts, job family role expectations), and accountability between sessions.
