Engineering Manager, Console Team (Product-Led Growth Strategy)
Leads engineering team building self-serve web apps, agentic tooling, and account services for product-led growth in voice AI. Requires strong technical background, leadership experience, and familiarity with LLMs, cloud, and startup pace.
About the job
What You'll Do
- Lead a team of multi-disciplined software engineers to build our web applications, agentic tooling integrations (MCP servers, SDK experiences), and account management (authorization, billing, analytics) services
- Work closely with the rest of the leadership and product management team on product strategy and roadmap refinement, with a focus on AI-native developer experience
- Oversee technical design, task decomposition, and daily standups to ensure the team is executing on schedule
- Lead the creation of features and product releases by being closely involved with the product development, design, and review—including AI agent playground environments and LLM-powered developer tooling
- Drive the self-serve growth engine: activation funnels, in-product upgrade flows, and PLG experimentation and self serve deployments
- Work with other team leads from across the product organization on cross-functional projects, help identify the critical paths, and resolve dependencies
- Hold regular 1-on-1s with direct reports, help them navigate challenges, and coach them for their career development
You'll Love This Role If You
- Have experience working in early stage startups—from building and scaling to going through fundraising
- Have great communication and leadership skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment
- Have strong practical experience with software architecture and implementation, plus the ability to engage with an engineering team to help build and scale the existing infrastructure
- Think about LLMs, agents, and model APIs as first-class product primitives—not just add-ons
- Have familiarity with hybrid cloud models (bare-metal datacenters and cloud service providers) and scaled databases
- Have interest in relevant technologies (Rust, LLM APIs, MCP/agent tooling, Elm, Postgres, GPUs, etc.) and a willingness to challenge common assumptions about the future trajectories of technology
It's Important To Us That You Have
- A strong technical background building world class user-facing applications
- Proven management and leadership experience
- The ability to drive technical decisions in a scalable and thoughtful manner
- Passion about good engineering practices, emerging technologies, and improving processes
- A consistent record of mentoring and coaching team members
- A passion for navigating the team through the real-world constraints of a startup: how to build quickly, iterate frequently, and run experiments
It Would Be Great if You Had
- Experience building AI-powered developer tooling—playgrounds, SDK experiences, interactive docs, or evaluation UIs for ML models
- Experience shipping agentic or voice AI integrations—MCP servers, function-calling pipelines, voice assistant SDKs
- Experience driving PLG at a developer-tools company—activation experiments, usage-based pricing instrumentation, upgrade flows
- Experience managing through a fundraising cycle
- An opinionated approach to partnering with product and making timely deliveries
