About this role:

As an Engineering Manager on the Connections team, you will lead engineers working on product areas that help people engage more meaningfully with others across our platform. You’ll partner closely with cross-functional leaders to shape strategy, drive execution, and build a healthy, high-performing team.

Responsibilities:

- Lead and grow a cross-functional engineering team working across user-facing product areas and the systems that support them.

- Set clear goals and drive execution against a roadmap aligned with broader product and business priorities.

- Partner with Product, Design, Research, and Data Science to shape strategy, prioritize opportunities, and deliver measurable outcomes.

- Create a strong team environment with clear expectations, healthy operating rhythms, high standards, and psychological safety.

- Coach and develop engineers across levels, helping them grow in scope, impact, and career progression.

- Support technical and architectural decision-making to ensure the team builds reliable, scalable, and maintainable systems.

- Use data, experimentation, and user insight to guide product and engineering decisions.

- Use AI to accelerate analysis, research, drafting, synthesis, and iteration, while applying strong judgment and verification to ensure quality and correctness.

Requirements:

- Experience leading engineering teams that build and ship consumer-facing products.

- Experience managing engineers across multiple levels and helping teams improve in effectiveness, quality, and impact.

- Strong people leadership skills, including coaching, feedback, performance management, and team development.

- Strong product sense and strategic thinking, with the ability to translate broad goals into clear priorities and execution plans.

- Solid technical foundation and the ability to engage in architecture, design reviews, and technical trade-offs.

- Proven ability to lead through ambiguity, align cross-functional stakeholders, and deliver meaningful results.

- Expertise in using data and experimentation to inform product and engineering decisions.

- Demonstrated ability to use AI to improve speed and quality in day-to-day work for relevant outputs.

- Strong track record of critically evaluating and verifying AI-assisted work through testing, review, or other quality controls.

- High integrity and ownership in using AI: you protect sensitive information, avoid over-reliance on AI, and remain accountable for final decisions and deliverables.

- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with experience working closely with Product, Design, Research, Data Science, and other engineering teams.

- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
