## Description

## About the Role

As the Engineering Manager for our Developer Observability Platform you will manage a high-velocity customer-obsessed team. Your mission will be to empower customers by making their telemetry discoverable and actionable in one place.

## Responsibilities

- Deliver excellent customer outcomes above all else. Whatever is required - building, planning, deciding, designing, communicating - you are accountable and get it done.

- Set the technical and product vision along with your PM and Engineers. Build the right thing at the right time.

- Building an observability platform for the current AI driven ecosystem. Agents empower new types of platforms capabilities even as they require new types of observability.

- Own the operational aspects of your platform such as SLOs, incident response, customer escalations, and technical debt. Reliability is its own feature.

- Recruit, mentor, and grow engineers. We have a high bar and expect you to raise it.

- Cultivate a team culture that values fast iteration, high agency, and ownership.

- Work cross-functionally with a range of platform and product teams to instrument and surface meaningful data in actionable ways.

## Desirable Skills, Knowledge & Experience

- A minimum of 8 years of relevant industry experience, including at least 4 years managing software engineering teams.

- Proven track record leading teams that have shipped and operated complex, large-scale systems and data-driven applications. Preferably in observability, developer platforms, cloud infrastructure, edge/proxy systems, or high-scale APIs.

- Significant technical depth, with the ability to guide architectural discussions, make credible technical decisions, review designs, and unblock your team.

- Strong developer tools taste. You have used and built enough observability products to know what makes them delightful or painful.

- Demonstrated ability to hire, coach, and develop senior engineers, and to build high-performing, inclusive teams that ship. You care about teams and team culture.

- A hands-on approach to leadership: you consider yourself a builder, stay close to the code, know the numbers, know the customer, and know what to build next.

## Compensation

Compensation may be adjusted depending on work location.

- For NY-based hires: Estimated annual salary of $220,000 - $303,000
