Engineering Manager, Infrastructure

Role overview

Lead two infrastructure-focused engineering squads responsible for platform and engineering systems from prototype through production, including maintenance and on-call operations. You will own prioritization, execution, team development, operational health, vendor spending, and audit readiness while continuing to contribute production code alongside engineers using AI-assisted development workflows.

Responsibilities

- Manage, hire, and mentor a team of approximately five engineers while creating opportunities for growth and future team expansion. - Own squad delivery through iteration planning, prioritization, backlog refinement, estimation, and clear decision-making. - Ship production code regularly using the same development workflows as the team, maintaining technical credibility and practical understanding of its constraints. - Improve cycle time while protecting or raising software quality and explain delivery tradeoffs to stakeholders. - Lead on-call operations, incident response, recovery-time improvement, and post-incident analysis. - Partner with Engineering, Product, Design, IT, security, legal, compliance, procurement, and other groups to resolve dependencies and make recommendations. - Manage substantial annual vendor spending and key technology contracts. - Establish automation and evidence-management processes that support internal and external audit controls.

Requirements

- At least eight years of software-engineering experience, including two or more years managing engineers or equivalent accountability for team delivery. - Demonstrated record of shipping mission-critical software. - Ability and desire to continue writing production code while leading people and delivery. - Strong technical judgment for evaluating systems, tradeoffs, engineering quality, and operational risk. - Experience developing engineers through feedback, coaching, hiring, and clear expectations. - Practical understanding of where AI-assisted development improves delivery and where it may create rework.

Benefits and work setup

- Remote-first work-from-home culture with flexible time off. - Compensation may include annual cash bonus, equity, employee stock-purchase participation, and location-based base salary ranging from $156,000–$195,000 to $179,400–$224,250. - Health, dental, and vision insurance; retirement savings plan; generous parental leave; lifestyle spending support; and mental-health resources.
