Description de poste

At Prisma, we're redefining how developers work with databases. If you're fascinated by the cutting-edge data infrastructure powering companies like Twitter, Airbnb, and Facebook—but want the agility, ownership, and impact of a fast-moving startup—Prisma is the place for you.

Backed by top-tier Silicon Valley investors like Amplify Partners, Kleiner Perkins, and IVP, our small, distributed team is making advanced database technology accessible to developers everywhere. Our open-source tools are trusted by over 400,000 developers each month, with a thriving community on Discord and GitHub, where we've earned 41,000+ GitHub Stars.

At the heart of our commercial offerings is Prisma Postgres, our flagship product designed to supercharge PostgreSQL with modern developer workflows, performance optimizations, and seamless scaling. Alongside it, Prisma Accelerate, Pulse, Optimise and Studio provide a world-class toolkit for building with data.

By combining the power of open-source with cutting-edge commercial solutions, we're shaping the future of databases—one developer at a time.

What would you do at Prisma?

As Senior Engineering Manager, you will own the core commercial infrastructure and products, ensuring they scale to millions of users while maintaining performance and reliability. You will lead a high-impact team responsible for Prisma Postgres, Accelerate, Pulse, and future commercial initiatives, driving innovation through building, designing, planning, and managing risk.

This is a central role where your decisions will shape Prisma's direction, working closely with the Head of Product Development and under direct visibility from the CEO and COO. You will collaborate with a talented, ambitious team that is eager to push boundaries and deliver cutting-edge database solutions. Your focus will be on product excellence, operational stability, and empowering your team to achieve their best work.

Your responsibilities will span three key areas:

1. People: Empower your engineering team to achieve technical excellence and meaningful impact by ensuring they have the support and resources to do their best work. This includes providing constructive feedback, creating learning and growth opportunities, and challenging them to improve. Help them understand why their work matters and how it aligns with company-wide KPIs. We believe that strong, healthy teams start with investing in people.
2. Process: Optimize and refine development processes and technical practices to drive continuous improvement. We believe in relentless optimization—if something can be done better, we find a way. You will lead engineering team meetings to plan and prioritize work, run retrospectives to identify improvements, and establish policies that enhance communication, collaboration, and code quality.
3. Delivery: Success for your team means consistently delivering high-quality software that provides value while maintaining a sustainable pace. You will collaborate closely with the Product Manager to prioritize product initiatives, define the roadmap, and drive technical improvements.
