• Bring 5+ years of engineering background, with enough depth to be credible with engineers building complex systems. • Show 3+ years of managing remote engineering teams. • Have managed a team that built and ran a low-latency, high-connection service such as WebSockets, pub/sub, messaging, presence or streaming systems. • Show strong technical credibility in distributed systems, including clustering, rate limiting, backpressure and capacity planning. • Have led a team through production incidents on a customer-facing service and run blameless follow-up work. • Understand what developers need from a real-time API or SDK, and have shipped one to customers outside your company. • Have a track record of performance management, with specific examples of difficult conversations. • Communicate clearly in writing and default to async working across time zones.

• Have experience with Elixir, Erlang or the BEAM. • Know Postgres logical replication and Row Level Security. • Have managed globally distributed teams working asynchronously across disparate time zones. • Be comfortable with ambiguity and able to build structure where there isn't much.

• Build a healthy, high-trust team culture in a remote-first, globally distributed environment. • Run 1:1s, performance management, career development and onboarding for your direct reports. • Own the hiring plan and act as Hiring Manager, partnering with Talent Acquisition to source, interview and close candidates. • Contribute to headcount planning, org design and the evolution of engineering leadership at Supabase. • Own the team's roadmap and project management in Linear, driving accountability and clear milestones. • Manage workflow intake and Slack triage, deciding what gets routed, prioritised or pushed back. • Organise effort against support tickets, maintain the team's SLO and surface risks and tradeoffs early to leadership. • Train as an Incident Commander and lead coordination, resolution and blameless post-incident reviews.

• Work fully remotely, with a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world. • Receive ESOP, so every team member shares in the company's upside. • Use a tech allowance to set up your ideal work environment. • Enjoy 100% health insurance cover for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. • Work flexibly and asynchronously, managing your own time. • Spend an annual education allowance on courses, books, conferences or other learning. • Meet the whole company for an annual off-site in a new city each year.
