What you’ll do:

  • Provide vision, mentorship, and strategic leadership for a diverse engineering team building and maintaining secure open source libraries at scale.
  • Guide the technical direction and product strategy spanning language ecosystems, dependency management, security hardening, tooling, automation and services.
  • Set and oversee policies, quality standards and continuous improvement, balancing world-class security practices, performance, stability, and customer value.

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven track record of managing and scaling technical teams with experience in building or maintaining platforms at scale.
  • Experience managing teams that ship agentic AI in production: shipping agentic tools, designing evaluation suites and LLM-judge rubrics, curating the knowledge that steers agents.
  • Strong grasp of language ecosystems (e.g., Python, Go, Java, Javascript, .NET) focused on build systems, dependency management, release management and vulnerability management.

About Us:

  • We are customer obsessed — focusing on delivering solutions that create value and make customers' lives better.
  • We have a bias for intentional action — prioritize, plan, try things, and fail fast.
  • We offer a flexible & remote-first culture with team meetup opportunities, bi-annual summits, and a monthly stipend for coworking spaces and phone/internet costs.
