Manager, Software Engineering (Code Dependency Graph)

LinkedIn • Mountain View, CA

13h • $147,000 - $240,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. The work location of this role is hybrid, meaning it will be performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team. Team Description We're the team that keeps LinkedIn's software supply chain secure, compatible, and discoverable — at massive scale. LinkedIn's codebase spans thousands of services and libraries with deeply interconnected dependency chains. We build the platforms, automation, and intelligence layer that lets thousands of engineers ship code confidently every day without worrying about broken dependencies, license violations, or invisible compatibility failures. Think of us as the team that answers three fundamental questions across LinkedIn's entire codebase: - What code exists and how does it connect? (Code Discoverability) - Is it safe to make this change? (Guardrails) - Is everything up to date and compliant? (Dependency Management)
