Senior Engineering Manager

Responsibilities

• Own delivery health across three teams: predictable shipping, sane scope, and unblocking engineers fast, in close partnership with Product and Design.
• Grow and retain a strong team: coaching, career development, substantive feedback, and keeping your engineers engaged and leveling up.
• Drive our hiring process for these teams: raising the bar on who we bring in and running a tight, fair loop.
• Stay hands-on with the code: review complex changes, set and hold engineering patterns and standards across product and platform work, and make architectural calls with your tech leads.
• Champion AI tooling across the team (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and whatever's next), modeling it in your own work and raising the team's velocity with it.
• Partner with Product and Design at HQ to shape scope and de-risk execution on high-ambiguity problems, and carry that context clearly to a remote team.

Requirements

• Experience managing remote or distributed engineering teams.
• 3+ years managing engineers, including owning delivery, performance, hiring, and growth for a team.
• You use AI tools aggressively in your daily workflow: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and whatever else is useful. You're ahead of the curve on what's emerging, you stay technically proficient because of it, and you translate that into how your team builds.
• A track record of shipping complex product and platform work end-to-end with measurable business impact, and holding the quality bar throughout.
• Strong full-stack or platform engineering depth, enough to lead and review with credibility. We use Rails, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, and GraphQL; you're comfortable across the stack or close gaps fast.
• Strong system-design judgment: data models, service boundaries, failure modes, and how systems hold up at scale, applied to guiding architecture and raising the team's instincts.
• Strong communication: you write clearly, give effective feedback, and collaborate well across functions in a startup environment, including with a remote team.
