Bangalore, India

Our take: The real work here is growing a distributed backend engineering team and building the operating rhythm that turns a defined security roadmap into predictable, high-quality delivery.

This is a founding manager role for someone who gets more energy from growing engineers than from writing code. You will shape how a distributed backend team works, turn a defined roadmap into predictable delivery, and help ship supply chain security features that regulated customers genuinely depend on. If you love running honest 1:1s, hiring well, and building calm operating rhythm across time zones, this is your kind of work.
