About Nothing Nothing exists to make tech feel exciting again. We’re building a different kind of technology company, one that puts design, emotion, and human creativity at the heart of everything we do. Founded in London in 2020 and backed by GV, EQT Ventures, and C Ventures, we’re now sold in 40+ markets with millions of users worldwide.
The AI & Services team is the studio within the machine — tasked with exploring the bleeding edge of human-computer interaction and prototyping the future of Nothing OS before scaling it to millions of users globally. This is a high-velocity environment where speed, craft, and creative ambition are non-negotiable.
We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead and grow the AI & Services engineering team. You’ve spent meaningful time as a software engineer — you know what good looks like at the code level — but today your craft is people, teams, and delivery. You’ll be the person who clears the path for exceptional engineers to do their best work, while keeping us shipping fast and pointed in the right direction. Lead, coach, and grow a team of full-stack and AI engineers, creating an environment where talented people can do the best work of their careers. Own the team’s delivery — setting a high bar for execution, removing blockers, and keeping a rapid shipping cadence without sacrificing quality. Partner closely with Product and Design to translate ambitious ideas into clear, executable roadmaps, balancing exploratory prototyping with production-grade engineering. Build and maintain engineering excellence: code quality standards, review practices, incident response, and the systems that let us scale what we prototype. A strong engineering foundation. You’ve shipped production software — ideally full-stack, with experience in the kinds of technologies our team uses (React, Node.js/Python, cloud infrastructure). You have experience managing engineers directly, supporting their growth, handling performance, and building team culture. You have a bias toward shipping. You champion craft throughout the engineering process. You help the team stay focused and productive even when the path isn’t fully defined. Full-time, in-office (5 days a week). We believe the best work happens when we’re in the same room, and we design flexibility around personal needs where possible. We ask that you live within a 60-minute commute of your office location….
