About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager to lead and grow our engineering team as we scale our AI-powered cloud optimization platform. You'll play a key leadership role in shaping technical strategy, building scalable systems, and mentoring top-tier engineering talent.

This is an onsite role where you’ll stay actively involved in architecture and coding, while also managing people and processes. You’ll work closely with the founding team and cross-functional partners to ensure our engineering organization is aligned with product and business goals.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and scale the engineering team from 10 to 20+ engineers, including hiring and team structuring
  • Stay hands-on with architecture and development—this is a technical leadership role
  • Own the delivery of scalable, performant systems across AI, infrastructure, and cloud services
  • Collaborate with product, design, and business teams to translate strategy into execution
  • Mentor and develop engineers at all levels, fostering a high-performing, inclusive culture
  • Help shape engineering culture, tooling, and practices as we grow

Minimum Qualifications

  • 7+ years of total engineering experience
  • 5+ years in a managerial or technical leadership role
  • Experience as a CTO, Eng Lead, or similar role at a company with $5M–$30M+ ARR
  • Strong backend and infrastructure expertise, particularly with AWS, GCP, or Azure
  • Solid understanding of AI/ML applications in cloud or infrastructure optimization
  • Degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
  • Availability to work onsite in San Francisco, Monday–Friday

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Previously managed or scaled engineering teams of 10–15+ people
  • Built and scaled backend systems used by thousands of users
  • Product-minded and data-driven with strong communication skills
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and moving quickly in a startup environment
  • Experience in a Series A or growth-stage startup a strong plus
  • Previous founder or early employee experience is a bonus

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation + equity
  • Comprehensive medical and dental coverage
  • 401(k) plan
  • Generous paid time off, including 13 days of accrued PTO, 9 sick days, all 11 federal holidays, and a company-wide winter break from December 24 through January 1
  • Free lunch at the office
  • Free access to the building gym
  • Annual company-paid retreats
  • Developmental bonuses: support for professional development tied to cloud and related fields

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
