Buoyant, the company behind Linkerd, is hiring a hands-on Engineering Manager to lead a senior engineering team building core Kubernetes service mesh infrastructure. This role is open to Staff/Principal Engineers, TLMs, or newer Engineering Managers who have strong technical leadership experience and want to move into hands-on management.
This is not a generic people-management role. The right person will be technically credible with senior infrastructure engineers and comfortable staying close to systems design, architecture, execution, and coaching.
This role is fully remote within US/Canada time zones, roughly UTC-8 to UTC-4.
