Background

We’re looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead a high-caliber team of backend engineers working on our core infrastructure - including distributed systems, low-latency stream processing, and data storage at scale.

You’ll be responsible for managing engineers building mission-critical services, such as our Kafka ingestion platform, ClickHouse data layer, and event-driven workflow engine. It’s the core of the product. You’ll work closely with cross-functional leads in product, infrastructure, and AI to help define technical strategy, drive execution, and grow our engineering culture. You’ll have to co-ordinate and work with people in North America.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and grow a team of backend engineers working on core systems including Kafka pipelines, workflow orchestration, and real-time data platforms.

• Guide technical design and architecture decisions for systems handling millions of events daily with high availability and low latency.

• Partner with product and engineering leadership to define roadmaps, set priorities, and deliver on customer-facing features and internal platform capabilities.

• Create a culture of ownership, technical excellence, and rapid iteration.

• Support team members in their growth through mentoring, feedback, and career development.

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of experience managing high-performing backend or platform teams.

• 7+ years of hands-on backend experience working on large scale, low latency distributed systems, event streaming, databases, and cloud infrastructure.

• Strong technical background - ideally familiar with technologies like Kafka, ClickHouse, Postgres, Redis, and Flink.

• Experience managing teams working in Java, or similar backend languages.

• Track record of leading complex technical projects and collaborating cross-functionally with product and infra.

• Comfortable in high-growth, fast-paced environments with lots of ambiguity and autonomy.
