Sanity is looking for a Software Engineering Manager to lead a team building AI-powered developer tools and integrations for our AI Content Operating System. You will own strategy, roadmap, and execution for growth through AI developer experience, with a focus on MCP integrations and agentic builders.
What You'll Do
- Lead a team of engineers – help them prioritize for impact, grow in their careers, and do the best work of their lives.
- Own strategy, roadmap, and execution – work closely with product and design partners to decide what to build and make sure it ships.
- Drive growth metrics – activation rates, signups from integrations, developer adoption.
- Ship fast and iterate – run experiments, learn from failures, and double down on wins.
- Build AI developer tools – MCP integrations, agentic builders, and partnerships with the platforms where developers are building today.
- Build platform integrations – connect Sanity to the tools teams already use, like storage providers and analytics platforms.
- Set technical direction – guide architecture decisions that balance velocity with maintainability across TypeScript, React, Node.js, & Go microservices.
- Collaborate across the company – align with engineering leadership, marketing, and partnerships on shared growth metrics and goals.
What We're Looking For
- Based in San Francisco – able to work from the office regularly.
- 1+ years of engineering management experience.
- Strong full-stack technical skills – deep experience with TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Next.js.
- Actively using MCP and AI tools – you've used MCP servers in your own workflow and have opinions on tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, and v0.
- Growth engineering experience – you've run A/B tests, optimized funnels, and made data-informed decisions.
- Strong cross-functional collaborator – you work well with product, design, marketing, and partnerships.
- Comfortable with ambiguity – you can drive clarity when the path isn't obvious and make good decisions with incomplete information.
- Bias for action – you'd rather ship something and learn than plan forever.
