About the role

Responsibilities

  • Manage, grow, and hire for a team of platform and infrastructure engineers — and mentor ICs to continuously raise the technical bar
  • Be hands-on technically — dig into code, debug systems, and work alongside the team to solve hard problems
  • Own the roadmap for your domain, define ambitious goals, and reliably deliver against them
  • Build and operate the systems that power the software development lifecycle — build systems, CI/CD, developer tooling, deployment automation — with high reliability, observability, and performance
  • Improve engineering and researcher productivity by building well-designed platform abstractions, standardizing workflows, and reducing infrastructure friction
  • Partner across infrastructure, security, research, and engineering to ensure seamless integration
  • As the team grows, potentially expand scope into cloud platform services — including workload routing, resource optimization, and cost governance

Requirements

  • Computer Science degree or equivalent practical experience
  • 2+ years of engineering management experience
  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Demonstrated experience managing and mentoring engineering teams
  • Proven ability to attract, hire, and retain exceptional engineering talent
  • Strong programming experience in Python, Go, C++, or similar

  • Experience operating critical systems with high reliability requirements
  • Knowledge of best practices for scalable system design and operational excellence
  • Ability to dive deep technically while maintaining a strategic view of platform architecture
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills across engineering and research organizations

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or similar) alongside on-prem systems
  • Experience with large monorepos, Bazel or similar build systems
  • Experience improving developer productivity at scale
  • Experience with CI/CD systems or internal platform engineering
