Engineering Manager

Who you are

• You’ve spent 3+ years managing an effective engineering team, specializing in platform services, data integration and cloud infrastructure
• You have 5+ years of hands-on experience building high-volume data ingestion and transformation applications
• You’ve worked with platform engineering teams and can understand their concepts and technologies
• You’ve seen the inner workings of how software is made by a team on a shared codebase - you can articulate what communication, development processes and tooling you do/don’t find effective and why
• You've thrived while working on a semi or fully-remote team (communicate effectively async, work independently, know when to ask for help, self-manage your time and effort)
• You're a direct, empathetic communicator, who believes that thoughtful feedback is a mandatory input to growth
• You're never done learning - you constantly drive to understand how things work, how you can improve, and how you can have an impact at different levels

Technologies we use & teach

• Databases: MySQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Redis, Clickhouse
• Infra: AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform
• Frontend: React, Typescript
• Backend: Python, Django
• Experience with these is a plus, but we know smart people are quick learners!

Nice to haves

Bonus points if you:

• Have 1-3 years of experience leading a team in a larger more scaled environment
• Are able to clearly articulate why you made the intentional decision to go down a management track
