Role Overview
We are hiring a Senior Manager, Engineering to lead that platform and the team behind it.
This is a hands-on engineering leadership role. You will spend real time in architecture, design review, and the code. We are not looking for someone to inherit a platform and keep it running as it is. We are looking for a leader who will assess where the platform stands, define where it needs to go, and drive it there in partnership with architecture, infrastructure, security, and the product teams who build on it.
