Engineering Manager – Enterprise AI Agents
AI Start-Up
$275k base + equity
US – Eastern Timezone (Hybrid/Remote)

Edge Tech is proud to be working with one of the most exciting AI start-ups on the planet, a $55m Series A company that’s redefining how enterprise teams get work done through intelligent, autonomous agents.

Their platform helps global organizations build, run, and scale AI Agents that plug into real enterprise workflows, combining reasoning, action-taking, and business context to automate mission-critical tasks at scale. Think RPA 2.0 meets GenAI, only way smarter.

With a founding team of seasoned entrepreneurs, backed by the same top-tier VCs behind Uber, Snapchat, and Zendesk, this is a unique chance to join a rocketship early, while the impact you’ll have still echoes company-wide.

The Opportunity
They’re now looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager to lead a high-calibre, distributed engineering team responsible for building the very core of their platform: the AI Agent.

If you’re someone who thrives in ambiguity, loves building exceptional engineering culture, and gets excited by the chance to scale real GenAI products used by global enterprises, this is the one.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading a team of senior engineers to ship production-grade, customer-facing AI capabilities
• Hiring, mentoring, and developing top technical talent and creating a team culture where high performance and psychological safety go hand-in-hand
• Staying close to the codebase (Python) and dedicating ~20% of your time to hands-on work
• Translating big customer problems into clear engineering roadmaps
• Owning delivery timelines, managing stakeholders, and ensuring quality, security, and performance at scale
• Driving architectural decisions and engineering best practices in a complex distributed environment (Kubernetes, microservices)

What You’ll Bring

• 10+ years in software engineering, with 5+ years in engineering leadership
• Experience leading distributed teams in high-growth start-ups or product-led organizations
• Deep technical background – comfortable in architectural discussions and not afraid to dive into code when needed
• Strong grasp of distributed systems, containerization, and cloud infrastructure
• Passion for GenAI, you don’t just read the headlines, you’re using the latest tools
• Clear and confident communicator - you’ll work closely with product, design, founders, and customers
• A bias for action, learning, and delivering real-world results

Why Join Our Client?

• Shape the future of AI in the enterprise, from the inside
• Influence product, strategy, and culture from Day 1
• Work alongside world-class founders, builders, and researchers
• Fully remote, distributed team with flexible working and no micromanagement
• Be part of a start-up that’s actually shipping
