About the role
About Supabase
Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.
About the Role
We're looking for Engineering Managers to lead engineering teams across Supabase. Teams range from developer-facing surfaces, core backend services, Platform, EngOps, and Databases.
This is a single pipeline for engineering management. As we get to know your background, we'll match you to the team where your experience and interests overlap most strongly. The Engineering Manager is a people, delivery, and technical role. Although we don’t expect managers to contribute to code directly, we do expect you to participate in design discussions and to be involved in setting the bar for engineering quality and best practices.
This is a new role at Supabase. We've historically optimised for technical excellence on every axis, including leadership. As our engineering org grows, people leadership has become just as critical, and the Engineering Manager role exists to reflect that. You'll be shaping what this role looks like from day one.

Contribute to headcount planning, org design, and the evolution of engineering leadership at Supabase.
Delivery & Roadmap

Manage workflow intake and Slack triage. These are the team’s primary inboxes for cross-team requests. You decide what gets routed where, prioritized, or pushed back on.
Own the team's weekly updates and keep stakeholders aligned without creating overhead.
Organize effort against support tickets and maintain the team's SLO.
Surface risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs early and clearly to leadership.
Incident Commander
Train as an Incident Commander. Drive coordination, resolution, and post-incident follow-up.
Lead blameless post-incident reviews
