Overview
Engineering Manager, Developer Infrastructure. This role is an opportunity to shape how hundreds of engineers build, test, and ship software every day. You will lead a team that sits at the center of a modern software organization, designing the platforms, tools, and workflows that make development faster, safer, and more enjoyable. If you care deeply about developer experience and believe great internal platforms unlock outsized business impact, this role offers the chance to make that vision real.
The Environment
You will be working within a large scale software and data platform that powers personalized digital experiences for businesses. The engineering organization places a strong emphasis on speed, quality, and thoughtful adoption of emerging technologies, including applied artificial intelligence. The focus is on enabling product teams to move quickly with confidence, supported by strong foundations and clear standards.
The Team You Will Lead
The Developer Infrastructure team exists to remove friction from the software development lifecycle. The group builds and maintains shared systems that engineers rely on daily, including development environments, build systems, deployment pipelines, and core tooling. This team acts as a force multiplier, allowing product engineers to focus on customer value instead of infrastructure overhead.
Collaboration and trust are central to how the team operates. Success depends on close partnership with engineers across the organization, listening to their pain points, and delivering practical solutions that scale.

- Leadership skills to inspire trust, set clear expectations, and create an environment of ownership and continuous improvement. Strong communication with technical and non technical partners and ability to influence across teams.
- Curiosity about artificial intelligence and experience applying it to engineering work or personal projects. Eagerness to explore new tools responsibly and work more efficiently.
Helpful Experience
- Experience with build systems and frameworks such as Pants, FastAPI, Django, React, Terraform, or Buildkite is beneficial.
- Familiarity with performance tuning, large scale test data management, and production-like testing environments is a plus.
- Exposure to user interface workflows and testing tools like Cypress or Jest can also be valuable.
