Engineering Manager - Social
About The Position
We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to lead Suno’s Revenue Growth engineering team: a cross-platform group of backend, web, iOS, and Android engineers who discover and deliver Suno’s highest-leverage commercial opportunities. The team owns pricing and packaging, paywalls and offers, subscriber retention, experimentation infrastructure, and revenue-driving UX improvements, partnering closely with product, data science and the commerce platform team. This is a high-autonomy role that combines product, technical, and people leadership: you’ll stay close enough to the code to review decisions and multiply technical ownership across your team.
Requirements
- 5–7 years in software engineering, including 2–4 years managing engineers — hiring, developing, and running firm performance cycles
- Genuine, demonstrable intuition for social products and network effects — you’re a real user and a first-principles thinker about what makes products sticky, and you understand how to grow a network without collapsing context
- Enough technical depth to guide architecture and stay hands-on — you can review code, weigh trade-offs, and jump into the codebase when it helps
- A track record of creating structure in ambiguous, 0→1 environments, ideally shipping consumer social products at startup pace
- Strong asynchronous, cross-functional communicator who reduces ambiguity rather than creating it
- A love of music (listening, exploring, making — we’re not picky about genre)
Nice To Haves
- Experience on a growth team — social and growth are two sides of the same coin
- Founding or 0→1 experience inside a larger organization (a “startup within a startup”)
- Fullstack range across mobile, web, and backend
- Familiarity with network-effects and engagement-mechanics literature
Responsibilities
- Lead a small team of fullstack product engineers who own Suno’s social layer — notifications, profiles, the follow graph, and social engagement from sharing to comments
- Grow the team by hiring strong engineers, developing them across the stack, and holding a high bar through honest, firm performance management
- Set technical direction for social systems at scale — guiding architecture for the follow graph, notifications, and profiles, and championing mobile-first API design
- Partner with product, design, and data science on roadmap ideation, discovering and fostering the emergent social behaviors that deepen engagement
- Ship retention-driving features with end-to-end rigor: metrics read-outs, logging, dogfooding, and post-launch follow-up
- Advance Suno’s mission of making creative fulfillment a daily reality by building the network that lets people create and experience music together
Benefits
- Company Equity Package
- 401(k) with 3% Employer Match & Roth 401(k)
- Medical, Dental, & Vision Insurance (PPO w/ HSA & FSA options)
- 11 Paid Holidays + Unlimited PTO & Sick Time
- 16 Weeks of Paid Parental Leave
- Creative Education Stipend
- Generous Commuter Allowance
- In-Office Lunch (5 days per week)
