The Role
- Lead and develop a team of seven experienced engineers, including several Principal Engineers

- Broad engineering, data science or ML background with the ability to operate across software engineering and AI/ML in production.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills with experience working closely with Product and Executive teams
- Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve quickly
- Experience with LLMs is beneficial, but strong engineering fundamentals and AI production experience are more important
This is a fantastic opportunity for an Engineering Manager who enjoys leading senior technical teams, influencing product strategy and building AI platforms that have a direct impact on millions of users.
