Were looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the Delivery and SDK team within Statsig at Amplitude. This team builds the systems that connect developers to Statsig and safely deliver product experiences to end users around the world.
The team owns two foundational areas:
- Delivery: The globally distributed systems that evaluate Experiments and Feature Gates and deliver the resulting experiences to end users. These systems sit directly in the critical path of our customers applications making availability scale correctness and latency essential.
- SDKs: More than 30 SDKs spanning web mobile server edge TV gaming and emerging platforms. Our goal is to meet developers wherever they build and give them an ergonomic reliable way to integrate Statsig into any application or technology stack.
This is a uniquely broad technical leadership role. Youll work across distributed systems mobile platforms server runtimes edge environments and developer toolingsometimes all in the same week. Were looking for a hands-on technically versatile leader who enjoys moving between technologies learning unfamiliar systems and solving problems across abstraction boundaries.
You dont need to be the worlds foremost expert in a single language or platform. You do need the curiosity and technical judgment to work effectively across many of themand the ability to build a team that can make a complex polyglot ecosystem feel simple and dependable to developers.
- Lead and grow the team responsible for Statsigs global delivery infrastructure and ecosystem of 30 SDKs.
- Experience leading a team of 8-10 team members
- Define the technical strategy for highly available low-latency evaluation and delivery systems operating at global scale.
- Make Statsig exceptionally easy to adopt by continuously improving SDK ergonomics performance reliability consistency and documentation.
- Expand our SDK coverage as new languages frameworks runtimes and computing platforms emerge.
- Establish shared architecture and quality standards across a large polyglot codebase while preserving the conventions and strengths of each platform.
- Partner closely with product infrastructure and customer-facing teams to solve complex integration challenges and shape the future of Statsigs developer platform.
- Experience developing production SDKs or developer-facing libraries ideally across both native mobile and server-side environments.
- Broad technical range across multiple programming languages runtimes and application platforms.
- Experience leading teams responsible for developer infrastructure distributed systems or other business-critical production software.
- A strong understanding of API and SDK design including ergonomics backward compatibility performance release management and safe adoption.
- Experience building highly available low-latency systems where failures can directly affect customers end-user experiences.
- A generalist mindset: you enjoy learning new technologies moving between layers of the stack and making sound decisions without needing to specialize narrowly in a single domain.
- The ability to connect infrastructure architecture developer experience and customer needs into a coherent technical roadmap.
Statsigs value is realized only when developers can integrate it easily and confidently deliver experiences to their users. The SDKs must feel native to every platform while the delivery systems behind them must remain fast correct and available at enormous scale.
This leader will bring those two responsibilities together. Youll help make sophisticated experimentation and feature delivery infrastructure feel remarkably simple to developerswhether they are building a mobile app backend service edge worker game television application or something that does not exist yet.
