Engineering Manager – Applied AI

• Technical leader who still codes: You enjoy reviewing PRs, debating architecture, and jumping into difficult technical problems. This is not a role you can do from a distance. 
• AI fluency: You have hands-on experience with technologies such as LLMs, RAG, tool-use architectures, and AI agents, and think critically about where AI can create meaningful leverage. 
• Strong engineering judgment: You can quickly understand technical problems across disciplines and evaluate whether your team’s approach is sound without needing to be the domain expert. 
• Workflow-oriented mindset: You’re excited by finding ways to fundamentally improve how engineering teams work, rather than simply adding AI to existing processes. 
• Builds high-agency teams: You hire and develop engineers who take ownership, move quickly, and solve problems without waiting for a detailed roadmap or specification. 
• Experience scaling small teams: You’ve helped a high-context engineering team add structure and process while preserving speed, autonomy, and technical quality 

• Ability to work extended hours and weekends as necessary.
