Engineering Manager, Platform & Infrastructure

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Lead the team that builds the infrastructure agents run on: Environments, tooling, observability, and context, designed for agents first and for the humans directing them
• Keep the commons serving the whole: Decide what the central team owns and what each team owns, make the call when teams need different things from a shared system, and write the decisions down so they hold
• Be the accountable person when the shared layer fails: Production, CI, security, compliance. Make sure a problem reaches the right hands within the hour, and take the ones that are yours
• Work alongside the engineers who use what you build: They will be on a problem the moment it appears. Be there with them, and fix the cause rather than the report
• Build the team: Hire senior engineers, grow the team only as fast as the work requires, and set the direction for how a small team and a fleet of agents cover a large surface

Job requirements

• 10+ years in infrastructure, platform, or systems engineering, including several leading a team or a function: You have owned shared infrastructure that a whole engineering organization depended on
• You have built for AI agents, not only with them: You have shaped environments, tooling, or workflows so that agents could do real engineering work, and you have opinions about what that takes
• You have been accountable for production: On-call, incident response, and the postmortems that followed, somewhere downtime cost something
• You lead by making others faster: Your platform work was adopted because it helped, and the people who used it came to you first when it didn't
• Comfortable with users who are also operators: You would rather engineers fix their own problems in your systems than route everything through you, and you build so they can
• Clear in writing: The decisions and standards you write are read and followed
