About The Role
We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Deployment Engineering team in EMEA.
This isn't a typical management role — we need someone who leads from the front, gets their hands dirty, and drives impact.

- Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Sales to shape how we deliver AI to enterprises
- Mentor your team on cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and enterprise-grade deployments
- Optimize performance for OpenSearch, databases, and other K8s services
- Define scaling guidelines for GPU and CPU compute resources
- Build processes & technology that scales — we're growing fast.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering with demonstrated leadership
- Hands-on experience deploying enterprise software at scale
- Strong expertise in cloud infrastructure (Azure, AWS, GCP)
- Experience with Kubernetes, Helm, and CI/CD pipelines
- High agency — you don't wait for permission to solve problems
- A doer mentality — you dig in and get stuff done
- Experience managing engineers in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
- Excellent communication skills in English.
- Nice to Have's
- Fluency in additional European languages
- Experience with AI/ML infrastructure
- Background in enterprise security and compliance.
What We Offer
- Remote-flexible work from anywhere in EMEA
- 6 weeks of paid vacation
- Equity/stock options
- Competitive salary
- Co-working stipend
- Annual learning allowance ($2,000)
- If some of the above doesn’t line up perfectly with your experience, we still encourage you to apply!
- We value and celebrate diversity and strive to create an inclusive work environment for all.
- We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities.
- Should you require any accommodations during the recruitment process, please submit an Accommodations Request Form, and we will work together to meet your needs.
