Engineering Manager Resume — Frequently Asked Questions

How do I show impact as an engineering manager versus an IC?

Focus on team and organizational outcomes: "Grew and managed a team of 8 engineers, improved sprint predictability from 65% to 90%, and reduced regrettable attrition to zero over 18 months."

Should I still list technical skills as an EM?

Yes, briefly — list languages or systems you can still review code in or make architectural calls on, since many EM roles expect continued technical credibility with the team.
