Webflow is a visual web development platform that empowers non-coders to create incredible experiences for the web.
We’re looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to help us grow and scale our application and web hosting infrastructure.
About the role
- Location: San Francisco HQ, US Remote, or ON/BC, Canada
- Full-time
As a Senior Engineering Manager, you'll…
- Manage the engineering team building underlying infrastructure for both the Webflow application and enterprise hosting product.
- Lead a distributed and diverse team of Site Reliability Engineers focused on stabilizing and expanding Webflow’s production infrastructure.
- Collaborate with cross-functional peers such as Product, Marketing, Customer Success, and Customer Support to set goals and define business strategy.
- Drive goal-setting with your team and hold them accountable for results.
- Balance projects such as pairing with partner teams on a new feature launch with customer-facing features for our enterprise hosting product.
- Lead by example and embody the spirit of Webflow’s dual missions and core behavior.
That said, these responsibilities are just the start! At Webflow, we encourage you to contribute wherever your interests take you — and shape your role accordingly.
About you
You’ll thrive as a Senior Engineering Manager if you:
- Have 4+ years experience managing an operations, infrastructure, or SRE team that provides on-call support for a complex, distributed system.
- Have a strong technical foundation in AWS/Cloud architecture and Kubernetes, preferably obtained through prior experience as an SRE or Infrastructure Engineer.
- Have experience managing agile teams to adhere to software delivery cycles, while also balancing long-term production maintenance of complex systems.
- Value accountability and will support your team in reaching their fullest potential.
- Can empathetically deliver tough feedback with respect and kindness.
If you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying. Studies show that you can still be considered for a role if you meet just 50% of the role’s requirements.
