Job Description:

We’re hiring a Senior Engineering Manager (or high-potential EM2) for the Core Platform team in the AI Group. The AI Platform team builds and operates the foundational infrastructure that powers Intercom’s AI products, including developer tooling, inference infrastructure, and reliability systems. The team ensures that engineers and scientists can rapidly & safely build our flagship AI product Fin, while also ensuring it remains stable and performant in production. This is a hands-on EM role — you’ll lead a senior-heavy team of 4–6 engineers while remaining hands-on in the codebase. We believe that an EM who occasionally works alongside ICs writing code, will build up the knowledge and context required to inform strategic decision making and better support engineers in their team. This isn’t a temporary “player-coach” setup — it’s a deeply technical leadership role where coding and architecture work are core to the job.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead a high-performing team building the platform and infrastructure that power Intercom’s AI capabilities
  • Contribute directly to production code, staying close to the work and building knowledge & context through first-hand experience
  • Support teams of ML Scientists and Engineers building AI powered capabilities
  • Plan, prioritize, and deliver high-impact roadmaps in partnership with the team’s most senior engineers, balancing delivery, quality, and innovation
  • Improve developer experience across the AI infrastructure stack, ensuring that systems are observable, scalable, and easy to build upon
  • Empower the engineers on the team to act with agency and maximize their impact
  • Expand your scope over time, potentially taking ownership of additional platform domains as the team and AI initiatives grow

Requirements:

  • Experience leading engineering teams, ideally across infrastructure or platform domains
  • Recent hands-on coding experience — you’ve shipped production code in the last couple of years
  • Strong technical judgment and the ability to coach senior engineers through complex architectural trade-offs
  • Adaptable leadership style suited to a group that will grow quickly, and change shape over time
  • Curiosity and enthusiasm for AI, with a desire to learn how ML systems are developed and operated in production

Nice to have:

  • Previous experience in hands-on EM/IC role
  • You’ve alternated between EM and IC roles during your career
  • Previous experience building AI powered products or platforms
What we offer:
  • Competitive salary and equity in a fast-growing start-up
  • We serve lunch every weekday, plus a variety of snack foods and a fully stocked kitchen
  • Regular compensation reviews - we reward great work
  • Pension scheme & match up to 4%
  • Peace of mind with life assurance, as well as comprehensive health and dental insurance for you and your dependents
  • Flexible paid time off policy
  • Paid maternity leave, as well as 6 weeks paternity leave for fathers, to let you spend valuable time with your loved ones
  • Cycle-to-Work Scheme
  • MacBooks are our standard, but we also offer Windows for certain roles when needed
