Engineering Manager - Product & Platform Delivery

Runpod is pioneering the future of AI and machine learning, offering cutting-edge cloud infrastructure for full-stack AI applications. Founded in 2022, we are a rapidly growing, well-funded company with a remote-first organization spread globally. Our mission is to create a foundational platform for developers to build and run custom AI systems that scale. Join us as we shape the future of AI.

We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to lead a high-impact product engineering team building customer-facing features across Runpod’s console, APIs, and developer workflows. You’ll take ownership of a roadmap area end-to-end - partnering with Product and Design to shape scope, then guiding your team through architecture, execution, quality, and launch.

This role is ideal for a leader who’s shipped at millions-of-users scale, thrives in fast-moving environments, and can go deep technically in Linux systems internals and/or cloud systems engineering - you have experience building cloud platforms (control planes, orchestration, networking, storage primitives, kubernetes components), not just applications running on top of them. You’ll help Runpod deliver the fastest, most intuitive path for builders to train and deploy AI in production.

Responsibilities

• Own Feature Delivery for a Product Area: Lead a team of engineers responsible for shipping new functionality and iterating existing product surfaces. Deliver predictable, high-velocity outcomes that improve customer experience and business value.
• Plan and Execute Roadmaps: Translate product strategy into clear technical plans, milestones, and success metrics. Identify tradeoffs early and manage scope, risk, and timelines.
• Technical Leadership & Architecture: Drive pragmatic system design for product-layer services and workflows, ensuring scalability, performance, and consistency with Runpod’s platform.
• Build and Grow a Strong Team: Hire, mentor, and develop engineers; set expectations, provide feedback, and create a culture of ownership, speed, and craft in a remote-first environment.
• Quality & Reliability for Product Surfaces: Improve automated testing, release safety, observability for customer-facing systems, and regression prevention. Ensure on-call health for your team’s services.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner tightly with Product, Program management, Support, GTM, and Infrastructure counterparts. Coordinate dependencies cleanly while maintaining clear ownership.
