Role Overview
We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to lead our Internal Platform team—a foundational group focused on infrastructure, developer experience, and platform reliability. You’ll manage a small team of engineers building the systems that power our entire product development organization.
This is a player/coach role: you’ll lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing team, while also contributing hands-on to key projects involving Ruby, PostgreSQL, and AWS. You’ll help shape our internal tooling, DevOps strategy, and cloud infrastructure while collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders to improve how we build and ship software at scale.
