Sia Partners is looking for an Engineering Manager - Product to support the design and delivery of next-generation AI and Generative AI platforms within Sia’s AI Factory. This role is pivotal in bridging high-level product vision with robust, cloud-native engineering execution.
You will work closely with product, data science, and platform teams to translate business and client requirements into robust technical solutions. The role requires strong Python expertise, experience with distributed systems and microservices, and a pragmatic approach to delivering reliable, scalable systems in enterprise environments. In addition to technical delivery, you will contribute to architectural decisions, raise engineering standards, and support client-facing engagements through technical leadership and clear communication.
Key Responsibilities
Team Leadership: Hire, coach, and retain top-tier software and cloud engineers. Establish trust through architectural design sessions and code reviews, fostering a culture of ownership, high performance, and continuous innovation.
Cloud & Product Strategy: Define and drive quarterly technical roadmaps that align software delivery with business priorities. Lead the evolution of our cloud ecosystem, focusing on scalability, cost-optimization, and seamless AI integration within our SaaS products.
Architecture & Cloud Design Reviews: Ensure the highest standards of scalability, security, and performance across all cloud-based services. Embed architectural guardrails and "Cloud-First" best practices, ensuring documentation and coding guidelines are followed.
Hands-On Technical Influence: Contribute targeted PRs (scaffolding, Infrastructure-as-Code, developer experience improvements) to maintain a pulse on the codebase without occupying the critical delivery path.
Operational Excellence: Uphold the philosophy of "you build it, you run it." Optimize CI/CD pipelines and cloud deployment strategies to increase delivery velocity while maintaining system stability.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Managers, Research, and Ops to transform ambiguous product requirements into actionable technical milestones, ensuring frequent delivery of customer-visible value.
Talent Development: Engage in recruiting and empowering premier engineering talent. Attract and develop engineers who excel in collaborative environments and are passionate about building world-class software products.
