We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager, Agents & Developer Productivity to lead teams building AI-assisted engineering workflows. This role will partner with engineering leaders in infrastructure, developer productivity, security, product engineering, ads, machine learning, and senior technical leadership to make AI-native development safe, measurable, scalable, and effective across Reddit.
Reddit is entering a new era of software development. AI and agentic workflows are changing how code is planned, written, reviewed, tested, and shipped. Used well, these tools can help engineers move faster with higher confidence. Used poorly, they can increase complexity, review burden, operational risk, and cost. This role will help Reddit build the path for agentic development: flexible enough for teams to experiment, opinionated enough to protect quality, and measurable enough to prove whether AI is increasing delivered value rather than just activity. Just as importantly, this role will help bring teams along for that change, building trust in new workflows and helping Reddit evolve how we build software together.
The Developer Productivity organization builds the platforms, systems, and workflows that enable Reddit engineers to develop, test, review, deploy, and operate software safely and efficiently at scale. We work across infrastructure, AI tooling, developer environments, CI/CD, observability, code review, and software delivery systems to reduce friction, improve engineering effectiveness, and help teams focus on delivering impact for Reddit users.
As AI and agentic workflows reshape software development, Developer Productivity is helping define how Reddit builds software in the future. We are creating the foundations for AI-native engineering: scalable platforms for LLM access and evaluation, safe agent workflows, intelligent development environments, and measurement systems that help teams understand whether new tools are improving outcomes, not just increasing activity. We partner closely with engineering teams across Reddit to build paved paths that support experimentation while maintaining the quality, reliability, security, and operational standards required to run Reddit at scale.
You will lead teams across Reddit's Developer Productivity and AI portfolio, spanning agent infrastructure, AI-assisted code review, developer environments, LLM governance, developer tooling, AI workflow measurement, and software delivery automation. You will partner deeply with engineering teams as a technical leader, balancing execution, organizational alignment, technical quality, and long-term platform strategy.
