Fully Remote Work From Anywhere Jobs

🌎 Given that we are an all-remote company and hire almost anywhere in the world, we don’t have a location requirement for this role. However, your working hours must overlap with US + CEST for at least 20 hours/week.

As the Engineering Manager for our Delivery team, you will help bring Sourcegraph to enterprise-grade readiness across the board. You will lead our exceptional all-remote team to achieve ambitious objectives to make Sourcegraph easy to deploy, scale, monitor, and debug for both us and customers. You will be solving challenges in user environments.

📅 Within one month, you will…

• Lead a team that runs self-hosted deployments, from the small hobbyist experience to the large corporate customer’s first official setup. Your deep experience with both modern and legacy architectures will help you tailor the Sourcegraph installation and setup process to a wide variety of specialized needs for enterprise, while remaining easy and accessible for hobby devs.

📅 Within three months, you will…

• Deliver smart, streamlined solutions to our customers solving common on-premise configurations and debugging challenges
• Work directly with our support teams to help customers troubleshoot, debug, tune, and configure Sourcegraph deployments
• Work with our engineering teams to enable new initiatives through infrastructure as well as enhance our systems for performance and scalability
• Work closely with the Sourcegraph Cloud team to ensure that they are also using best practices

📅 Within six months, you will…

• Help Sourcegraph level up in all phases of deployment, operations, and incident response, including bringing best practices in-house for building stable and resilient systems, including on-premises at very large customers with custom configurations and architectures. Your team will not initially be large enough to perform all this work; hence, you must work closely with the rest of the Engineering organization to ensure that everyone is following best practices.

📅 Within one year, you will…

• Have hired and retained exceptional people to make our team even more representative of the world’s population.
• Collaborate with product and engineering leadership to develop the next set of ambitious goals that your org should work towards.
• Develop a clear technical and execution strategy to achieve that next set of goals.

💪 This role will challenge your leadership skills, requiring you to drive initiatives in a fully-remote company that is distributed globally. You will be a high-agency actor, finding the right balance between disturbing other important work and moving the needle on operational excellence. It will not be an easy problem to solve, but as the ideal candidate, you have already done this many times at other companies in many configurations.

• You have 2+ years leading an engineering team
• Experience with Kubernetes is a requirement. Experience with Bazel is desirable, along with building and deploying Go-based microservice architectures.
• As the ideal candidate, you will have deep familiarity with the Google SRE operations model, as well as professional experience with the subjects covered in the Google SRE book. Experience with alternative ops models, such as those employed by Amazon, Netflix, and other high-velocity companies with large scale and deep technical stacks, is also desirable.
• You’ve worked directly with customers to help them troubleshoot deployment and various other environmental issues.
