You'll be one of Runlayer's first engineering managers. You'll lead a pod of engineers who ship hundreds of PRs a week with AI agents writing much of the code. Your job is to keep the bar high, the team growing and the work moving, while staying close enough to the code to call a bad design when you see one. We're hiring two: one to lead Product Engineering and one to lead Platform. The team is growing fast, and the scope of this role will grow with it.

WHY YOU'LL THRIVE HERE

Impact: Your pod ships the platform enterprises use to put AI agents to work safely. What you build reaches customers in days, not quarters.

Excellence: Work with the team that helped establish MCP, built AI Actions for OpenAI and shipped Zapier Agents to millions of users.

Ownership: Own your pod end to end: people, hiring, delivery, quality and on-call.

Lead a pod of 6 to 10 engineers: weekly 1:1s, career growth, performance, and the hard calls when something isn't working

Stay hands-on: review PRs, ship code and debug production with your team

Run delivery: turn roadmap bets into scoped work, keep cycle time low, and make sure what ships solves the customer's problem

Own quality and reliability for your area: review standards, tests, incidents, postmortems and on-call

Hire: run your pod's interview loop, raise the bar and close the people you want

Make an AI-native team work at scale: review load, agent-written code, evals and the checks that stop slop from shipping

Partner with product, design and our Chief Architect on what to build and how to build it
