About the role

Meta Reality Labs seeks a Software Engineering Manager to lead the productivity and systems infrastructure behind Meta's AI-powered wearables, scaling to a broad next-generation portfolio of smart glasses, wrist wearables, and AR devices. Manages teams building large-scale, high-reliability infrastructure (mainline health, build and release, test automation, on-demand devices and emulators, developer tooling) while shaping technical strategy and AI-assisted engineering workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Manage teams of engineers and technical leaders who deliver large-scale infrastructure with significant cross-org dependencies
  • Shape the technical strategy and roadmap for the productivity and systems infrastructure powering our wearables portfolio
  • Stay hands-on, evaluating architecture, reviewing system designs, and contributing directly with AI-assisted tools
  • Partner with product, hardware, QA, and data science to keep teams engaged substantively, not siloed
  • Proactively surface and resolve execution risks across vision, strategy, and people to keep teams from being unblocked
  • Foster strong engineering craftsmanship through investment in AI workflows and tooling
  • Monitor organization health through regular feedback loops, pulse data, and structured development conversations

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience in systems, infrastructure, distributed systems, or related technical domains
  • 5+ years of engineering management experience, including managing teams delivering large-scale systems projects operating at high scale and reliability
  • 2+ years of experience in managing other engineering managers or technical leaders
  • Experience driving technical strategy and roadmap decisions for complex, high-scale systems with multiple layers of dependency
  • Experience building and operating systems for reliability, availability, and performance -- setting and holding quality bars (SLAs/SLOs) as scope and load grow
  • Experience scaling infrastructure, teams, and processes to keep pace with rapidly growing product and developer demand
  • Experience in recruiting, developing, and retaining engineering talent, including managing performance and building team health
