Job Description
Senior Engineering Manager leading the Platform Engineering team at Granum, focused on infrastructure and security during a technical transformation.
Responsibilities:
- Manage a prioritized strategic backlog spanning infrastructure, security, identity, and developer experience
- Make daily priority and trade-off decisions autonomously— you are the operational owner
- Treat engineering teams as your customers; measure success by their ability to ship with speed and confidence
- Run sprint planning, refinement, and capacity allocation for the team
- Say "no" or "not yet" to incoming requests with clear rationale and alternatives
- Directly manage ~5 platform engineers across infrastructure, security, and DevOps disciplines
- Own team health, growth, and career development through regular 1:1s with candid, compassionate feedback
- Create an environment where the team feels empowered to take calculated risks and learn from failures
- Manage on-call rotation and incident response with a blameless learning culture
- Set direction for cloud infrastructure (Azure, AWS), CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), and observability (Datadog, App Insights)
- Advocate for Infrastructure as Code, identity and access management, and zero-trust security practices
- Partner with security and IT to drive governance, compliance, and audit readiness across multiple product lines
- Use data (DORA metrics, reliability indicators, developer experience surveys) to measure impact and drive continuous improvement
- Interface with external compliance stakeholders (PE firm security teams, audit frameworks)
- Coordinate with feature team leads on platform dependencies, onboarding, and access management
- Partner with IT on MDM, VPN, and device management initiatives
- Communicate platform strategy and progress to engineering leadership.
Requirements:
- Significant experience (5+ years) of engineering management experience, including 3+ years leading infrastructure, DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering teams
- Demonstrated experience treating an internal platform as a product — roadmap ownership, stakeholder management, backlog prioritization
- Hands-on experience in multi-cloud environments (Azure or AWS required; GCP a bonus)
- Deep understanding of modern CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and identity/access management
- Experience with security hardening, credential management, and compliance frameworks (SOC2, investor security programs, or similar)
- Proficiency with containerization and orchestration (Docker, ECS, App Services)
- Demonstrated success enabling other engineering teams — you measure your success by their safe velocity
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence technical and non-technical stakeholders, including external partners
- Comfort operating in an agile environment with competing priorities and incomplete information.
Benefits:
- In the U.S., we offer comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with multiple plan options, plus additional add ons like HSA/FSA accounts, disability and life insurance, and more.
- In Canada, we provide an employer-funded HSA-based benefits plan with drug, dental, and mental health coverage - giving you a flexible way to manage your healthcare needs.
- We're committed to your financial future, with 401(k) matching for U.S. employees and RRSP matching for those in Canada.
- We invest in your growth through tailored career development conversations and support for tools, courses, and resources to help you thrive.
- And when it comes to work-life balance? We offer unlimited Paid Time Off, paid company holidays, and a company-wide winter break from December 24 to January 1 - so you can truly recharge.
