Senior Manager, Software Engineering

This Senior Manager role sits at the intersection of software engineering, reliability engineering, and applied AI. The team builds and operates production systems that are themselves AI-enabled, while also adopting AI-accelerated development practices in how those systems are designed, shipped, and maintained.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead a software engineering team responsible for building, shipping, and operating production software at the intersection of AI and software engineering.
• Set and drive the team's roadmap across feature delivery, reliability investments, AI-enabled capabilities, and operational improvements.
• Manage, coach, and develop software engineers and tech leads, including goal setting, performance management, hiring, and succession planning.
• Partner closely with product, AI engineering, platform, infrastructure, and downstream stakeholders to align on priorities, trade-offs, and delivery commitments.
• Establish and reinforce engineering norms around design review, code review, testing, release management, on-call, incident response, and production ownership for the systems your team owns.
• Drive reliability and operational excellence across your team's services, including service ownership, observability, release confidence, and preventative work that reduces recurring classes of failure.
• Raise the bar on how the team applies AI to its own engineering work, including effective use of AI coding assistants, agentic automation, and evaluation-driven development of AI-enabled features.
• Ensure your team builds AI-enabled systems responsibly, with practical quality, safety, and reliability controls appropriate to non-deterministic behavior.
• Contribute to cross-team engineering standards, operating mechanisms, and platform decisions as a senior manager inside CorpTech Platform.
• Communicate strategy, risks, trade-offs, and execution status clearly to senior engineering leadership and cross-functional partners.
