Job Description

Who We Are

Twitter is looking for an accomplished engineering leader for our Atlanta engineering office. We are a rapidly growing site focused initially on a large part of Twitter’s product, and planning to hire product, ML and systems engineers and leaders to deliver on our goals.

Search and Recommendations builds infrastructure and models to support this mission across multiple product areas. We are responsible for the recommendations you see under Search, Explore, Trends, Topics, as well as a portion of your Home Timeline. The unrivaled challenges that we face at Twitter are both the data scale and the real-time nature of the product. How do you find the most meaningful content among hundreds of millions of new tweets for hundreds of millions of users every day at Twitter? We build large scale personalized recommendation engines utilizing different kinds of signals such as social network, user activity, and geolocation. We work on trend detection, search understanding and retrieval, graph algorithms, recommendation systems, distributed systems, and social graph analysis.


What You’ll Do

You will be part of the Search and Recommendations group at Twitter. You will lead the Trends and Event Detection teams which detect and contextualize the most important conversations in the world, and highlight these to our customers. If Twitter allows an individual to have a voice, this team builds products that allow groups of individuals to amplify their voices.

You’ll grow and work with our engineering teams on site in Atlanta to foster a positive engineering culture, fixing or escalating site-related challenges, driving hiring and recruiting efforts, advocating for team growth, growing engineering leaders of tomorrow in Atlanta and representing Twitter in the larger Atlanta tech community. The role frequently involves working with our senior engineering leaders and the eng leads in our other sites. You’ll also lead at least one team locally on-site.

Who You Are

We’re looking for a Sr. Engineering Manager, who is comfortable working with teams across the stack, but preferably has some prior experience in product engineering or ML. The ideal candidate has thought deeply about culture, hiring and building healthy engineering teams across multiple geographies.

Qualifications

If this sounds like it might be you, you probably have:

  • A passion for helping teams and people grow to their true potential, through coaching, sponsorship and mentorship.

  • The ability to work collaboratively across a large engineering organization, both in terms of scale and in terms of mission complexity. Passion for growing healthy distributed teams and collaborative environments.

  • Experience building an inclusive engineering culture, with teams that are eager to help and learn and deeply curious. You’ll need to mentor disparate engineering groups beyond your org, so the expectation is that you can foster a culture that attracts, mentors and retains outstanding engineering talent.

  • A history of working tirelessly to hire and close a diverse set of talented engineers at all levels of seniority.

  • A creative and independent streak we’ll be relying on you to make important decisions and to lead independently, since you’ll be the lead for the site.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of engineering management experience, overseeing organizations of at least 20 people

  • Strong people management and experience coaching and growing managers

  • Inclusion and diversity is a core value

  • Prior experience working with remote/distributed teams
