About the role

Engineering Managers to lead core engineering teams at Antithesis, shaping architecture, growing engineers, and delivering high-quality, reliable software in a highly technical, early-stage environment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of engineers who genuinely care about what they build and how they build it.
  • Drive execution on complex, high-priority projects — keeping things moving without cutting corners that matter.
  • Get your hands dirty — write and review code, weigh in on architecture, debug the hard stuff.
  • Partner with technical leaders across the company to align your team's direction with broader product and engineering goals.
  • Raise the bar on engineering practices: quality, reliability, and correctness.
  • Build a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous learning.

Qualifications

  • Strong engineering chops — comfortable in C++, Python, Java, Go, or similar.
  • Experience with test infrastructure, or developer tooling is a major plus.
  • Deep experience with distributed systems, databases, and large-scale architectures.
  • Proven track record of leading engineering teams — recruiting, mentoring, and growing talent, ideally in a startup or high-growth environment.
  • Strong technical judgment. Ability to make the right call on hard architectural questions and explain why clearly.
  • Excellent communicator. Ability to align engineers, PMs, and executives around a shared direction.
  • Comfortable operating with ambiguity and adapting in early-stage environments.
