We’re looking for a skilled hands-on Software Engineering Manager to act as a player/coach, helping to train and build our growing team of site reliability engineers and advance our software infrastructure and deployment platform. You will work to drive initiatives, and communicate regularly with stakeholders. You will be part manager, leader, mentor, engineer and ally to product management and other stakeholders.

• Management experience. You’ve been around the block more than a couple times, and have personally managed teams of 5 or more engineers. 
• Education. Generally, a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or Engineering   is really helpful in working with our team on this kind of work. But feel free to convince us if you’re the exception.
• An insatiable intellectual curiosity and the ability to learn quickly in a complex space.
