About the Role
We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a team building our Agent Platform—the core infrastructure that enables teams to develop, deploy, orchestrate, and operate AI agents in production.
In this role, you will lead a team of engineers working on backend services, distributed systems, and developer tooling that power agent-based applications. You’ll be responsible for driving execution, shaping technical direction, and building a high-performing team that delivers scalable, reliable platform capabilities.
You’ll partner closely with product, applied AI, and infrastructure teams to define how agent systems are built and operated across the organization. This role is ideal for a leader who enjoys growing teams, driving clarity in ambiguous spaces, and building foundational platforms for emerging technologies.
Responsibilities:
Lead, mentor, and grow a team of engineers building the Agent Platform.
Drive execution of the team’s roadmap, ensuring high-quality, timely delivery of platform capabilities.
Partner with engineers to design and build systems for agent execution, orchestration, lifecycle management, and reliability.
Collaborate with cross-functional partners (product, AI/ML, infrastructure) to define requirements and prioritize investments.
Contribute to technical architecture and design decisions, balancing short-term delivery with long-term scalability.
Establish best practices for code quality, testing, observability, and operational excellence.
Build a strong engineering culture focused on ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
Help define and evolve the platform strategy for enabling agent-based applications across the organization.
Manage team health, hiring, performance, and career development.
