The Role
You’ll lead a team building a high-performance, distributed platform that underpins complex, data-intensive AI applications.
This is not a “process-only” EM role, it’s for someone who can operate in ambiguity, build from zero, and scale systems & teams simultaneously.
What you'll be doing?
* Lead, grow, and mentor a team of high-calibre engineers
* Own delivery, roadmap, and platform reliability
* Partner closely with product and other engineering teams
* Build scalable systems, processes, and engineering standards from the ground up
* Drive a strong engineering culture focused on ownership and impact
What they're looking for?
* Strong engineering background (ideally Python / backend / distributed systems)
* Experience leading or building engineering teams in startup or scale-up environments
* Track record working on data-intensive or high-scale systems
* Exposure to cloud infrastructure (AWS / Azure / GCP), Kubernetes, or similar
* Understanding of ML/AI systems in production is a strong plus
* You’re a builder, not just a manager
* You’re comfortable with ambiguity and pace
* You can balance short-term delivery with long-term platform thinking
This is a perfect tole for a first or second-time Engineering Manager or someone stepping out of big tech who wants more ownership and impact!
