Whether automating workflows or turning data into insights, Datagrid bridges the gap between data and success, driving productivity and innovation.

We’re looking for passionate individuals to join us at the frontier of AI innovation.

About the role:

We are looking for an Engineering Manager with a strong technical foundation and proven experience leading development teams. This role is ideal for someone who has thrived as a hands-on engineer and has since grown into managing and scaling high-performing teams. You’ll balance technical leadership, team development, and delivery oversight — while still staying close enough to the code to mentor, review, and guide engineering decisions.

You will partner closely with product, design, and operations to deliver AI-powered products and features that our customers love.

What you’ll do:

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of engineers across AI, backend, and frontend development.
• Set technical direction, define architecture, and ensure high-quality coding standards.
• Act as a bridge between strategic product goals and technical execution.
• Participate in technical design reviews, code reviews, and problem-solving sessions.
• Oversee sprint planning, prioritization, and delivery timelines.
• Collaborate with product managers to refine requirements and ensure feasibility.
• Champion best practices in security, scalability, and AI/ML integration.
• Recruit and onboard new engineering talent.
• Foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

What you’ll have:

• Proven experience: several years as an individual contributor (software engineer, AI/ML engineer, etc.) and several years in engineering leadership roles.
• Strong background in building and scaling SaaS or AI-driven products.
• Experience leading distributed engineering teams.
• Proficiency in one or more core languages (Python, TypeScript, Go, or similar) and familiarity with AI/ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
• Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and DevOps practices.
• Track record of shipping complex products from concept to launch.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
• Experience with vector databases, LLM orchestration, or AI agent frameworks.
• Background in enterprise SaaS or B2B software.
• Experience balancing technical debt with rapid delivery in a startup environment.

Who you are:

• Bias for action – moves fast but thoughtfully, balancing speed with quality.
• Strong project management – ensures teams hit milestones without micromanaging.
• Adaptability – thrives in a rapidly changing startup environment.
• Product mindset – understands customer needs and translates them into technical priorities.
• Comfortable with ambiguity – can work with evolving requirements and shifting priorities.
• Curiosity & learning drive – stays on top of AI and engineering trends.
• Ownership mentality – sees projects through end-to-end, not just to “handoff” points.
• Collaboration-first – works well with product, design, and operations.

If you thrive at the intersection of strategy, customer engagement, and data-driven success, we’d love to connect with you!
