Join ABC Fitness and become part of a culture that’s as ambitious as it is authentic. Let’s transform the future of fitness—together!
Our Values
Best Life
We believe great work begins with great people. That’s why our culture is built on respect, trust, and belonging. We create an inclusive environment where every team member can bring their authentic self to work—because diverse perspectives drive innovation and meaningful impact.
Growth Mindset
We are doers, thinkers, and dreamers. At ABC Fitness, your growth is our investment. Through continuous learning, mentorship, and professional development opportunities, we empower you to reach new heights—personally and professionally.
One Team
From day one, you’ll be part of a team that collaborates, celebrates, and cares. We move fast, support one another, and have fun along the way. Because when you thrive, we all thrive.
ABC Fitness is building an AI-native organization—where new products and capabilities are powered by agents, APIs, and orchestration systems built on a shared AI platform.
At the center of this is the API & AI Orchestration layer. This is the connective tissue of our AI Execution Model. As the Engineering Manager for this group, you will lead the teams responsible for:
Modernized APIs designed specifically for agentic consumption.
MCP / ACP Servers (Model/Agent Context Protocol) that expose internal capabilities to LLMs.
Agent Workflows that power real-world product features and new revenue-driving SKUs.
Your teams won't just build AI; they will work in an AI-native way. You will lead small, elite squads that leverage the best tooling available (Cursor, LLM-coding assistants) and the ephemeral, agent-friendly environments built by our Principal SREs.
What You’ll Do
Lead AI Orchestration & API Teams: Build and manage high-impact, autonomous squads focused on the MCP layer and complex agent workflows.
Define the MCP/Orchestration Layer: Establish the standards for how internal ABC systems are exposed to agents. You’ll ensure that our internal "context" is structured, reliable, and optimized for LLM reasoning.
Define agent-friendly API standards: Ensure APIs/tools exposed to agents have strong schemas, versioning, auth/authz, tenant boundaries, failure handling, replay/debug support, and backward compatibility.
Build responsible AI-native engineering practices: Help engineers use AI coding assistants, ephemeral environments, and automation to improve quality and speed without weakening review discipline, testing, security, or maintainability.
Turn Capabilities into Revenue: Work closely with Product and the AI-Native Org to ensure that the platform's capabilities are successfully translated into market-ready features and new AI-led SKUs.
Partner Across the Stack: Collaborate with AI Enablement (the platform "brains") and SRE (the "runtime") to ensure the orchestration layer is scalable, observable, and cost-efficient.
Build and grow high-performing squads: Motivate, coach, and develop engineers through effective 1:1s, growth plans, regular feedback, stretch assignments, and clear expectations.
Create the operating system for fast execution: Establish planning, prioritization, retrospectives, delivery metrics, decision logs, and communication rhythms that help small squads move quickly and sustainably.
Develop leaders within the team: Delegate ownership of design reviews, rollout plans, retrospectives, technical discovery, and cross-team coordination so engineers grow in scope and judgment.
What This Is Not
Not a traditional backend team focused on simple CRUD services.
Not a platform-only role disconnected from the product's impact on revenue.
Not managing large, slow-moving teams—this is about high-velocity, small-squad execution.
What You Bring
People leadership depth: Experience motivating engineers, running effective 1:1s, giving actionable feedback, managing performance, and helping engineers grow through clear development plans.
Technical judgment in complex systems: Ability to guide architecture across APIs, distributed systems, agent workflows, observability, security, reliability, and cost trade-offs.
Systems-thinking management style: You build team mechanisms — not heroics — so execution, quality, communication, and growth are repeatable.
API & Systems Expertise: Deep understanding of API design, integration patterns, and the "Model Context Protocol" (MCP) or similar frameworks.
Product & Revenue Mindset: You connect technical milestones to customer value. You understand that the best API is the one that enables a sale.
Agentic Fluency: You have a working knowledge of how agents use tools, how they fail, and how to structure "context" to improve their success rates.
Change leadership: Experience helping teams adopt new engineering practices and tools while maintaining trust, clarity, quality, and sustainable delivery.
Coaching mindset: You develop engineers by creating context, asking strong questions, delegating ownership, and helping people build judgment rather than taking over the work.
Bonus Points:
Experience modernizing legacy/brownfield APIs for machine consumption.
Hands-on experience with LLM orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, AutoGPT, or custom agent runtimes).
Familiarity with "Shadow Production" environments for testing non-deterministic workflows.
What Success Looks Like
Impact: Your layer is the engine behind ABC’s newest, highest-growth AI product lines.
Velocity: Teams can expose a new internal capability to an agent in hours, not weeks.
Reliability: Agent-driven workflows are as observable and stable as our traditional software stacks.
Culture: Your team is the benchmark for "AI-native" working—proving that small teams with the right AI tools can out-produce massive legacy departments.
Team Health: Engineers are motivated, clear on priorities, growing in scope, and able to work at a sustainable pace.
Engineering Judgment: The team consistently makes sound technical decisions around agent workflows, API contracts, safety, observability, and cost.
Operating Rhythm: The team has a reliable system for planning, execution, decision-making, retrospectives, and cross-team communication.
Why This Matters
This is the layer where AI moves from a "cool experiment" to a "business-critical asset." If you get this right, you will have built the interface that allows ABC Fitness to out-innovate the competition in the era of autonomous software.
