AI agents are starting to write more code than humans do, at a speed no security team has ever had to match, and that single shift is opening up the biggest opportunity our industry has seen in a decade. We're not bracing for it, we're building the company that owns it.\nSnyk is building the next generation security platform where security isn't a set of tools people operate. It's a team of security agents working alongside your engineers, finding, fixing, and governing risk at the speed software is now built. These agents work alongside both the company build and the agents they adopt. Security stops being a queue of work waiting for people, and becomes a coordinated workforce companies direct and trust.\nEngineering Manager\nWe’re looking for an experienced, hands-on engineering manager to lead the Snyk API & Web engineering organisation, a group of several technical teams building key technology capabilities for our product which helps enterprise and non-enterprise customers stay secure.\nThe role will be focused on solving challenges including:\nHow we keep scaling the product as we onboard larger, more demanding enterprise customers, without compromising on reliability or the customer experience.\n\nDelivering with both velocity and quality: building a robust system, automating as much as we can, and steadily paying down technical debt.\n\nKeeping support and day-to-day operations sustainable, in close partnership with the product team.\n\nYou’ll spend your time:\nsetting priorities and direction with the product team, and turning them into plans the teams can execute\n\nmanaging engineers across several disciplines\n\nproviding regular feedback, coaching and mentoring, and building a strong engineering culture\n\nguiding the technical direction through architecture and design reviews, and shaping how the teams build with AI coding agents, from tooling to review practices and quality guardrails\n\nstaying close to customers, including getting directly involved in complex support cases\n\nowning delivery and operational health\n\nYou should apply if you:\nhave experience managing and mentoring engineers across several disciplines, ideally including team leads or managers\n\nhave a strong technical background and can challenge and empathise with architectural decisions\n\nhave built and run a SaaS platform for enterprise customers, and are comfortable owning its reliability\n\nhave hands-on experience with AI-assisted development and want to embed AI in how we build, test and operate\n\nhave a track record of delivering with both velocity and quality, and of cultivating a strong engineering culture in an iterative environment\n\nare comfortable working directly with customers, support, sales and product teams\n\ncan manage multiple priorities and make clear trade-offs\n\nWe’d especially love to hear from you if you:\nhave worked on application security or other security testing products\n\nhave run a product where a data-heavy backend and a customer-facing web app ship together\n\nare excited by Snyk’s mission and by applying AI to security testing\n\nAbout Snyk\nSnyk is committed to creating an inclusive and engaging environment where our employees can thrive as we rally behind our common mission to make the digital world a safer place.
