About the role
We're opportunistically hiring an engineering manager focused on product engineering. For this role, you
MUST start off as an IC, and you MUST write code.
As Replo grows, so will your scope. You'll set technical direction, mentor engineers, and define best practices across the team. This will evolve into managing teams and working directly with the co-founders, while shipping great products and staying close to the code.
Responsibilities
Lead and grow a team of exceptional engineers, providing mentorship and guidance to help them succeed and thrive.
Deeply understand customer needs and pain points to prioritize work and deliver solutions that drive real impact.
Own project execution end-to-end — planning, architecture, and delivery — while maintaining high quality and predictable timelines.
Collaborate with high-visibility teams and stakeholders to drive critical product and platform initiatives forward.
Provide hands‑on technical leadership, from system architecture and design to incident response and roadmap definition.
Work every day with founders to shape and execute on the long‑term vision for Replo's AI platform.
Partner with our Chief of Staff to attract top‑tier engineering talent and define hiring strategies as the team scales.
Things you'll be working on
Architecting and implementing full‑stack product features.
Enable merchants to sell anything, anywhere, including subscriptions, dropshipping, and digital products in one platform.
Build agentic workflows that design and build online shops for anyone, from SaaS startups to M&Ms.
Build out product & payments processing infrastructure for millions of users.
Ingest billions of events/month using Kafka + ClickHouse, powering real‑time dashboards and automating marketing strategies.
Own our user onboarding and billing flow from end‑to‑end.
Minimum requirements
Has a CS degree (or equivalent)
Can be in office 3-4 days/week in San Francisco
5+ years of professional experience in software development
At least 2+ years of tech lead/engineering management
Experience leading projects on a cross-team or company-wide scale
Uses Cursor/Windsurf/GPT to accelerate their work
Has built products 0 > 1 with real users and revenue
Is OK operating independently without product/design
Is ALWAYS SHIPPING. We don't spend weeks planning features at Replo
Has a product and customer‑focused mindset
Values writing clean, maintainable software, including documentation (e.g. the code needs to be correct and run fast, but we’re the ones that have to read it and understand it)
Is comfortable with ambiguity and defining software architecture patterns to solve customer pain points
Bonus points if you
Experiencing managing teams in a people/technical capacity
Have started a company before
Enjoy attending hackathons
Worked at an early‑stage (Series A or earlier) startup previously
Have not wasted hours interview‑prepping on Leetcode
Have an eye for visual design (or past experience in product design, Figma, etc).
