## About the role

We are hiring an Engineering Manager to lead one of two engineering pods. This is a player-coach role. You will own the people, the priorities, and the technical decisions inside your feature area, and you will be technical enough that your judgment is what makes those decisions good.

## What they're looking for

- 10+ years coding professionally, including 3+ years leading a software team. You have owned performance and hiring, and you have been the person accountable when the team missed
- Senior staff-level technical depth, roughly a P6/L6 engineer with M3 management experience. You could hold a strong IC role if you were not managing, and your team knows it
- Forward-thinking about AI coding tools. You are already working with Claude Code or OpenAI Codex, and you are still thoughtful about where they help and where they do not
- Startup experience where the lines between code, data, product, and design tend to blur, and comfort operating in that overlap
- Deep technical curiosity that has led you to expertise across an atypically broad range of topics
- Strong experience with modern React and with Python (FastAPI), or comparable full-stack depth you can transfer quickly
