Engineering Team Lead, Platform

E2B•San Francisco, CA

1d•Hybrid

About The Position

You'll run the Platform team that ships reliable work fast, and you'll co-own the entire platform: cloud operations, Terraform automation, BYOC, and on-call. You'll lead both the people and the quality of what they deliver, so that E2B's core infrastructure is fast, secure, and reliable at any scale, customers trust us with their agents' execution, and product teams ship on top of the platform without thinking about it. You'll need to be senior and self-sufficient enough to run the team and make calls independently. Independence isn't a nice-to-have here, it's the job. The team is mostly in-office, so you'll lean on in-person and ad-hoc unblocking. You accept a standing early-morning window (8–9 local) for calls with the EU team.

Requirements

Experience leading or mentoring a team of infrastructure or platform engineers, with the judgment to make calls and own outcomes

5+ years of Linux fundamentals: Kernel, networking, storage, namespaces, containers

A strong bar for delivery and quality. You ship reliable work fast and hold your team to the same standard
Detail-oriented with great taste in design and engineering
Excited to work in person on a DevTool product and comfortable working closely with users
Proactive, not afraid to take ownership of part of the product
