Engineering Manager
SupabaseAbout Supabase
Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.
About the Role
We're looking for Engineering Managers to lead engineering teams across Supabase. Teams range from developer-facing surfaces, core backend services, Platform, EngOps, and Databases.
This is a single pipeline for engineering management. As we get to know your background, we'll match you to the team where your experience and interests overlap most strongly. The Engineering Manager is a people, delivery, and technical role. Although we don’t expect managers to contribute to code directly, we do expect you to participate in design discussions and to be involved in setting the bar for engineering quality and best practices.
This is a new role at Supabase. We've historically optimised for technical excellence on every axis, including leadership. As our engineering org grows, people leadership has become just as critical, and the Engineering Manager role exists to reflect that. You'll be shaping what this role looks like from day one.
What You'll Be Responsible For
Team & People
Build a healthy, high-trust team culture in a remote-first, globally distributed environment.
Run 1:1s, performance management, career development, and onboarding for your direct reports.
Handle people admin (leave, time off, etc.) for your team.
Hiring
Own the hiring plan for your team and act as Hiring Manager. First round of interviewer for all roles on the team.
Partner with Talent Acquisition to source, interview, and close strong candidates.
Contribute to headcount planning, org design, and the evolution of engineering leadership at Supabase.
Delivery & Roadmap
Own the team's roadmap and project management (Linear), driving accountability and clear milestones.
Manage workflow intake and Slack triage. These are the team’s primary inboxes for cross-team requests. You decide what gets routed where, prioritized, or pushed back on.
