Engineering Manager, Marketplace

We have 15 engineers and more than $100M in ARR, and we're scaling the engineering team roughly 3x over the next year. The Marketplace team sits at the center of that: it owns how supply (recruiters) meets demand (companies and their open roles), and every improvement it ships moves revenue directly.

We're hiring an engineering leader to own the Marketplace team. You'll manage a pod of strong engineers, partner closely with the marketplace product lead and data science, and be accountable for outcomes, not output: role coverage, recruiter activation and retention, hiring velocity for our customers. Title (Manager or Director) depends on your experience; the ownership doesn't.

This is a player-coach role. At our size, leaders still read PRs, debug incidents, and occasionally ship. You'll spend most of your time on people, prioritization, and system design, but you should be dangerous in the codebase.

Paraform is the first end-to-end AI recruiting marketplace that connects companies with thousands of specialized recruiters and AI agents that work together to fill roles faster and more accurately.
