Role
Who you are
- You’ve led remote teams of 7+ engineers for 3+ years, ideally focused on developing API-driven experiences for a technical audience
- You have some experience with operating hardware and understand the challenges it can present
- You're a servant leader, understanding that your team is successful because you are working to empower them and actively remove barriers
- You make decisions with data when available and push for making them available when they aren't
- You enjoy communicating through written English. As knowledge workers, we are effectively teachers and historians
- You're an expert in some programming language. You need to be able to motivate engineers who are building production software
- You have opinions about the technical details and can lead by example to foster strong organizational leadership
- You have a broad background in writing software and operating production systems at scale in various contexts and have some specialties in modern cloud infrastructure and systems
- You have strong opinions about the direction of cloud infrastructure, but you hold them loosely and enjoy working with others to achieve the best outcomes
What the job involves

- We need a manager who will lead the team that drives the innovation, design, implementation, and improvement of large-scale systems with critical uptime requirements for our next growth phase
- You’ll help the team navigate the complexities of building intuitive, powerful tools for our customers and internal teams in a high-growth environment
- Recruit, lead, mentor, and manage a global team of software engineers. Closely collaborate on requirements and schedules with Equinix's product management, customers, and internal stakeholders
- Build and foster an efficient build-it-and-run-it culture, blurring the lines between operations and development, reducing time to fix things that are broken
- Lead engineers to drive software design and improve our system architecture, making sure components are built in a way that is conducive for rapid development and deployment onto our platform
- Determine, align, and staff projects with the right engineers
- Engage the global Equinix community internally and externally. Much of the work of the team will be freely available to the world through open-source
