Apollo
Overview
Apollo.io is the leading go-to-market solution for revenue teams, trusted by over 500,000 companies and millions of users globally. Apollo provides sales and marketing teams with access to verified contact data for over 210 million B2B contacts and 35 million companies worldwide, along with tools to engage and convert these contacts in one unified platform. Apollo is AI-native and focused on helping revenue professionals find accurate contact information and automate outreach to turn prospects into customers. Notice: This description may include standard corporate information. EEO statements and required notices are preserved where applicable. Your Role & Mission
As an
Engineering Manager for the Infrastructure team , you’ll lead the engineers responsible for keeping Apollo’s systems fast, reliable, and scalable as we serve millions of daily users and process billions of data points. You’ll work at the intersection of
platform engineering, SRE, observability, and developer productivity , ensuring that our foundation can support Apollo’s AI-native evolution and rapid growth. You will: Build and lead a world-class infrastructure team focused on reliability, scalability, and performance. Report directly to the CTO, and partner closely with Product, Data, and AI Platform leaders to ensure the underlying systems enable fast, safe, and confident iteration. Drive best-in-class engineering practices for production uptime, performance, CI/CD, observability, incident management, and cost optimization. Foster a culture of excellence, ownership, and continuous improvement — where engineers are empowered to innovate and ship fearlessly. Help define Apollo’s next-generation infrastructure strategy — from cloud architecture to developer experience and AI-driven automation. Daily Adventures and Responsibilities
Lead, coach, and grow a distributed team of high-impact Infrastructure Engineers. You are expected to spend roughly 30% of the time as an IC. Partner with senior engineering leadership on strategic initiatives such as
cloud migration, infrastructure scaling, platform reliability, and cost efficiency . Define and implement modern operational excellence practices, including
SLOs, error budgets, incident reviews, and performance monitoring . Guide technical decision-making across key areas like
Kubernetes, GCP, observability, networking, CI/CD, and IaC (Terraform, Ansible) . Collaborate with AI, Data, and Product Engineering teams to ensure
infrastructure scalability for ML and AI-native workloads . Run effective 1:1s, career development conversations, and quarterly performance reviews. Support recruiting efforts to attract top engineering talent across time zones. Competencies
You think in systems and love scaling reliability through automation, not headcount. You’re equally comfortable talking about
incident response policies
as you are
Terraform modules or service mesh architecture . You build psychological safety within teams and help engineers grow through mentorship and clear accountability. You communicate crisply, document thoughtfully, and drive alignment across distributed, cross-functional teams. You embody Apollo’s values of
Ownership, Integrity, Curiosity, Excellence, Teamwork, and Fun . Skills & Relevant Experience
5+ years
of hands-on software or infrastructure engineering experience. 2+ years
of experience leading teams of senior and staff-level engineers in platform, SRE, or infrastructure domains. Proven ability to
design and operate large-scale distributed systems
in cloud environments (preferably GCP or AWS). Expertise with
Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ubuntu, and CI/CD pipelines . Familiarity with
observability tools
(Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, Datadog, NewRelic) and performance tuning. Strong grounding in
networking, security, and reliability principles . Experience managing infrastructure costs, availability SLAs, and high-throughput systems at scale. Bonus: Experience with
AI/ML infrastructure ,
data pipelines, MongoDB, Ruby on Rails, Ansible, or ElasticSearch Why You’ll Love Working at Apollo
At Apollo, we’re driven by a shared mission: to help our customers unlock their full revenue potential. That starts with a reliable, scalable, and innovative foundation — built by teams like Infrastructure. You’ll have: Autonomy & Impact : Lead a mission-critical domain powering the growth of a top SaaS company. A Learning Culture : Work alongside brilliant engineers, experiment with emerging AI-driven DevOps tools, and stay at the cutting edge of cloud-native practices. Remote-First Flexibility : Collaborate across time zones while maintaining balance and focus. A High-Performance Team : Ownership, urgency, and support — we win and grow together. If you’re ready to lead Infrastructure for one of the fastest-scaling SaaS companies on the planet, join us. Pay ranges and benefits: See below for details.
