Engineering Manager, Platform Engineering

Remote

At Anomalo, we enable our customers to feel confident in their data. We’re looking for a Platform Engineering Manager who is excited to lead a team of talented and engaged engineers on a mission. A mission to empower our colleagues and customers by providing robust infrastructure that enables them to achieve their goals with excellence and efficiency.

At some companies, Platform Engineering teams are the behind the scenes heroes who do great work but only get noticed when systems are down. At Anomalo, the Platform Engineering team is a core part of our company’s success and the work you do is recognized as such. 

You’ve been a Platform Engineer yourself so you understand the depth and complexity of the role. You’ll even pitch in from time to time, but you are someone who knows that the biggest success you can have as a leader is empowering the people on your team to succeed. You invest heavily in your team as you coach and mentor them.

You’re also someone who understands the importance of engaging with stakeholders whether they’re engineers, product managers or teams from finance, sales, and marketing. You know how to connect the dots between what the business needs and how your team can deliver on those needs.

This is an immensely rewarding role that will give you an opportunity to have a significant impact on our tech, our team, and our company. Let’s talk!

What you'll do at Anomalo:

  • Ensure your team is delivering high quality work.
  • Empower your team to make good decisions and drive forward on our technical strategy.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders in engineering, product, finance, and sales.
  • Coach and mentor the engineers on your team by giving active feedback and support.
  • Hire great engineers and build a diverse and talented team.
  • Communicate team progress and keep stakeholders informed about successes, challenges, and risks while actively unblocking issues.
  • Lead from both the front and the back. We expect all of our people managers to be technical, and willing to jump in ship some PRs from time to time. This might include working in Python, Terraform, Kubernetes, and the occasional bash script.

  • Lead the Platform Engineering team which is accountable for:
    • Operating our production SaaS environment, including networking, storage, and compute infrastructure;
    • Supporting all departments at Anomalo with cloud infrastructure solutions;
    • In partnership with Operations, maintaining automated monitoring to meet our ambitious security and compliance objectives;
    • Empowering field teams in Sales and Customer Solutions to deploy, monitor, and support Anomalo running in customer environments;
    • In partnership with Finance, monitoring and controlling our infrastructure spend to meet our business objectives;
    • Operating a robust observability infrastructure;
    • Supporting a world-class developer experience, including CI/CD, compute environments, and cloud infrastructure;

What you'll bring to the team:

Note: we encourage you to apply even if you’re not a perfect match for all of the below. If a lot of this sounds like you, don’t let a single bullet point drive you away. We’d love to talk!

  • 2+ years of successfully leading and managing teams in a startup environment;
  • 7+ years of experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, SRE or similar roles, or in Software Engineering with an emphasis on cloud infrastructure and/or data intensive systems;
  • Experience operating production systems on Kubernetes across multiple regions and/or clouds and experience with observability tools;
  • Deep technical understanding of software systems; you should be able to navigate our Python codebase and engage in design and architecture discussions
  • A focus on people growth and process improvement for their teams with a passion for leadership
  • A history of setting and meeting strategic engineering goals with a bias toward action and outcomes
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and problem solving skills

Location and travel:

  • Please note that we would prefer candidates in the East coast timezone given the team distribution
  • Planned travel once per quarter to our company’s quarterly on-sites to spend time with team (Required) and to Engineering Hackathons (~1x/yr)
  • Flexibility to travel to meet with customers and/or team meetups (approximately 15%)

Compensation

  • The estimated compensation for this role is between $190k - 230k plus meaningful equity

Perks of working at Anomalo:

  • 🎯 Make An Impact: Join a growing company that delights our customers. Our modern UI and rich visualizations help our customers solve unknowns and anticipate data issues before they happen.
  • 🔍 A values-driven, open and transparent culture that supports autonomy and growth.
  • 🏡 Fully Remote: We were fully remote before it was a thing, and we believe your best work happens on your schedule. We offer a generous $1,000 stipend to ensure your remote office is comfortable.
  • ✈ Quarterly Onsites: While we love the flexibility of being remote-first, we also recognize the value of spending time together in person. We make time to get together (in a new destination!) for a company-wide offsite each quarter.
  • 🌴 Generous Time Off: Enjoy 17 company holidays and unlimited vacation time that we encourage you to take. We also have a company-wide winter break the last week of the year.
  • 🩹 Health Benefits: Comprehensive family-friendly medical, dental, and vision insurance plans. Anomalo covers 90% of your premiums. We provide access to family planning and reproductive care for our employees and their families by partnering with Carrot Fertility. We provide mental health and wellness benefits for all employees, covered at 100%.
  • 🍼 Family Comes First: We offer 16 weeks of parental leave, during which you will receive your full pay.
  • 💸 Investment in the company & your future: Every employee is granted a meaningful equity package. We also offer life insurance and a 401(k) plan.
Many of our benefits and perks are designed for full-time employees, with some available only to team members based in the United States.

What we value:

  • Own It: We don’t just do our jobs—we own getting to the best results across the company.
  • Act & Adapt: We prioritize action, learn from mistakes, and continuously improve with humility and curiosity.
  • Thrive Together: We embrace diversity, assume best intentions, and support each other to succeed as a team.
  • Opacity Zero: Thoughtful transparency enables us to work autonomously and make great decisions.
  • Customer Focus: We anticipate, innovate for, and deliver what matters most to our current and future customers.
  • Work Smart: Work when, where, and how you’re most effective—outcomes matter more than hours.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
