Job description

Paris, France

Algolia is a fast-growing company that helps users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. Today, Algolia powers 1.5 Trillion searches a year – that’s 4 times more than Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Baidu and Yandex combined!

As an Engineering Manager on the Connectors Platform Team, you'll lead a team that develops products enabling our customers to seamlessly integrate their data into Algolia.

These products encompass a wide range of data integration and entry points, including:

  • Data Transformation services (internal and customer-facing)
  • Shopify, Commercetools, and BigCommerce integrations
  • Connectors Platform (supports common data sources like JSON, BigQuery, and MySQL, etc)

Join our team and play a key role in shaping the future of data ingestion at Algolia! You will have the opportunity to design and develop the core platform that empowers our customers and internal engineering teams to seamlessly integrate their data with Algolia's powerful search and discovery capabilities.

Your role will consist of:
  • Leading a team, as well as hiring, onboarding, and fostering professional development
  • Working closely with other EMs and Product teams to build quality products
  • Proven ability to inspire and guide team members, with excellent communication skills
  • Leading both backend and frontend engineers
  • Ability to plan, build teams, and manage execution to deliver on commitments reliably
You might be a fit if you:
  • Have 3+ years of engineering management experience and 5+ years of engineering experience
  • Are comfortable with our tech stack. Go/GCP based backend, React frontend
  • Experienced with data heavy products and platforms
  • Are an excellent communicator able to translate product requirements into technical tasks and vice-versa
  • Are capable of jumping in the trenches with the engineers — managing incidents, handling on-call, etc.
FLEXIBLE WORKPLACE STRATEGY:

Algolia’s flexible workplace model is designed to empower all Algolians to fulfill our mission to power search and discovery with ease. We place an emphasis on an individual’s impact, contribution, and output, over their physical location. Algolia is a high-trust environment and many of our team members have the autonomy to choose where they want to work and when.

While we have a global presence with physical offices in Paris, NYC, London, Sydney and Bucharest, we also offer many of our team members the option to work remotely either as fully remote or hybrid-remote employees.

ABOUT US:

Algolia prides itself on being a pioneer and market leader offering an AI Search solution that empowers 17,000+ businesses to compose customer experiences at internet scale that predict what their users want with blazing fast search and web browse experience.

Algolia is part of a cadre of innovative new companies that are driving the next generation of software development, creating APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch and better than having to tweak monolithic SaaS solutions.

In 2021, the company closed $150 million in series D funding and quadrupled its post-money valuation of $2.25 billion. Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

We’re looking for talented, passionate people to build the world’s best search & discovery technology. As an ownership-driven company, we seek team members who thrive within an environment based on autonomy and diversity. We're committed to building an inclusive and diverse workplace.
