Job Description


San Francisco onsite | $275K–$325K base + equity | Visa sponsorship available


Confidential search for a well-funded AI infrastructure startup experiencing rapid growth.


This is a hands-on leadership role for an Engineering Manager, Technical Lead, Staff Engineer ready for management, or Principal Engineer with leadership experience.


You’ll partner directly with the CTO, lead a backend-heavy Product Engineering team, and help scale the team during a major growth phase.


Must have:

• 6+ years product-focused engineering experience

• High-growth startup or scale-up experience

• Strong backend engineering foundation

• Experience leading technical teams

• Track record shipping 0→1 products and scaling them

• TypeScript and/or Python preferred


Nice to have:

• AI, ML, data infrastructure, developer tools, or audio/speech experience

• Big Tech + startup background

• Former founder or early startup employee


Deal breakers:

• Pure Big Tech background with no startup experience

• No recent hands-on technical depth

• Preference for highly structured corporate environments


Relevant companies: Scale AI • Labelbox • Weights & Biases • Snorkel AI • Databricks • Snowflake • Deepgram • AssemblyAI • ElevenLabs • Speechify • dbt Labs • Fivetran • Tecton • Pinecone


If this sounds like you or someone in your network, I’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
