Engineering Manager

Graphite builds consumer-quality tools for modern software engineering teams, so they can ship faster and create amazing products. Our product Graphite is modern code review for fast-moving teams – we help engineers write and review smaller pull requests, stay unblocked, and ship faster. Anyone can start using Graphite individually without needing their coworkers to change tools – we seamlessly sync code changes and reviews.

We are looking for an Engineering Manager who thrives by balancing hands‑on coding, thoughtful team management, and strategic technical leadership. You’ll drive projects with clarity, care, and intensity, supporting your team members’ growth and leading by example.

• Demonstrated experience managing and growing engineering teams while actively contributing to codebases.
• Strong technical chops: comfortable coding, reviewing code, and architecting systems at scale.
• Proven ability to drive clarity and alignment around complex technical decisions and challenges.
• Empathetic leader who supports team growth and champions best practices in software engineering.

• Industry experience building high‑quality software products.
• An ability to identify problems, build alignment, and implement solutions autonomously.
• Comfortable working with and designing abstractions and frameworks which increase developer velocity.

We’re excited to build a team whose responsibilities and compensation grow as we do.

• Competitive compensation: ($220‑250k base + substantial equity).
• Top‑tier health, dental, and vision coverage and 16 weeks paid parental leave.
• Time to decompress – we ask that our team take 4 weeks of vacation a year to unplug and unwind.
• Relocation expenses – we’re happy to help with your relocation expenses!
• Company‑paid lunch, snacks, and coffee during workdays.
• Commuter perks – ride around NYC with an Unlimited Ride Metro Card, on us.

As a team, we’re very aware of the systemic structural issues that have created inequalities for many communities, especially in the tech industry. We recognize that women and underrepresented minorities are statistically less likely to apply for a role that they feel unqualified for. If you are interested in this role but you’re concerned about not meeting all requirements, we encourage you to apply anyway – we’d love to get to know you and see if there’s a place for you here at Graphite!
