About The Position

We are looking for an Engineering Manager who is excited to bring Pulumi’s cloud programming model to the world. You will be part of realizing a vision where every developer can harness the power of the cloud. The Ecosystem team works at the intersection between cloud technologies (AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes) and developer platforms (programming languages, APIs, and application lifecycle), helping define the future of what it means to program the cloud. In this team, you will guide and grow the engineers who build Pulumi providers, create higher-level components, and enable our community to develop their own providers, components, and integrations. Expect to be challenged, learn, and collaborate with a world-class team and our amazing developer community. While Pulumi is headquartered in Seattle, WA, we are dedicated to being a remote-first company. This role can be located remotely in the United States or in Europe. There will be occasional travel (2–4 weeks per year) for internal and external events.

Requirements

5+ years of engineering leadership experience, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management.
3+ years experience building developer tools
Technical Background: Familiarity with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, GCP) and/or Kubernetes, and an interest in infrastructure-as-code or DevOps tools.
Capable of articulating complex ideas clearly, both within the team and to external stakeholders.
Passionate about delivering developer-friendly solutions that solve real-world problems.
Eagerness to explore new technologies, foster fresh perspectives, and help shape the next generation of developer tools.
