About HashiCorp

HashiCorp is a fast-growing startup that solves development, operations, and security challenges in infrastructure so organizations can focus on business-critical tasks. We build products to give organizations a consistent way to manage their move to cloud-based IT infrastructures for running their applications. Our products enable companies large and small to mix and match AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and other clouds as well as on-premises environments, easing their ability to deliver new applications for their business.

About This Role

The Terraform Platform Engineering group is composed of infrastructure, systems, and software engineers working on the Terraform Cloud hosted service. Our group ensures that the platform’s underlying infrastructure, data stores, and core foundational services are reliable, performant, and robust. We work closely with the engineering teams that ship features for both Terraform Cloud and the Terraform Enterprise on-premise product. Together, we comprise the Terraform Commercial organization within engineering.

As our group expands, we’re seeking a manager to lead our Platform Services Engineering team. This team is responsible for the design and implementation of the underlying services architecture for the Terraform Cloud and Terraform Enterprise products, as well as ensuring that our production services are scalable, reliable, and performant.

This manager will be instrumental in shaping the identity of the team and their accomplishments, and will directly support the career growth and technical achievements of several talented and experienced engineers. 

If this sounds like an interesting opportunity, we’d love to meet you! We have a large footprint and a quickly-growing user base, with lots of interesting problems and plenty of opportunities for growth and development.

In this role, you can expect to:

  • Provide mission and direction for the team:  
    • Work with senior leadership to develop a roadmap which supports the organization’s yearly goals for scale and growth objectives
    • Lead the engineers in continuing to deliver forward-thinking projects and major improvements to our reliability and stability 
  • Foster the team’s growth: 
    • Mentor and coach the team, promoting their career growth and professional development
    • Expand the team when needed, recruiting and interviewing new engineers which complement the team’s skills and experience
    • Foster diversity, inclusion, and equity within the team and across our group
  • Advocate for the team and their work:
    • Work with other managers to understand shared dependencies, roadmap items, and potential blockers for the team
    • Increase visibility for the team and publicly celebrate the team’s accomplishments 

You’re a great fit if you have:

  • Background in leading engineering teams for large-scale SaaS platforms
  • Qualified opinions about driving observability, reliability, and availability for large-scale distributed systems
  • Experience with managing both development and operational (i.e. Site Reliability Engineering) workstreams
  • Exposure to systems software and services written in Go
  • An interest in building a support structure for engineers to help them succeed at their job
  • A dedication to modeling and supporting a positive and healthy work life balance
  • Interest in a management career track in a technical context
  • Phenomenal communication skills for working across the organization, capable of building strong relationships with peers and leadership
  • Experience managing a remote distributed team of reasonable size
