Manager, Engineering - Flickr

Job Title: Manager, Engineering - Flickr Job Level: M2 Location: Remote, within approved U.How software gets built at Flickr is changing, and this role is central to that change. If that’s already how you work, you’ll recognize this job immediately. As an Engineering Manager, you’ll own the team responsible for the experience Flickr members have every day: the native apps, groups and community, privacy and moderation tooling, and the quality of the product people already pay for. You’ll partner with a dedicated product manager, and you’ll be accountable both for what your team delivers and for helping your engineers adopt a new way of working. This position is also remote-friendly, and as such, compensation will ultimately be in line with the location in which the position is filled. Benefits: Health, dental, vision insurance with 100% premium coverage for you and dependents. Health Savings Account contributions covering 90%+ of annual deductible. 401(k) with company match and immediate vesting. Remote work support (internet, fitness, coworking space reimbursements). Lead your team through the shift in how Flickr builds software. Assess and coach engineers on what matters now: the quality of the inputs they give the tools, how well they use them, and how carefully they verify the output. Own the quality signal for your areas, with detection, alerting, and triage that catch problems before members do. Set the roadmap with your product partner, and keep leadership informed on progress, risks, and incidents without softening bad news. Partner with Legal, Trust & Safety, and Support on privacy, data handling, and moderation, including work with regulatory deadlines. Management experience with direct responsibility for your team’s performance and growth, including the hard conversations. You’ll be coaching experienced engineers through a difficult change from day one. You’ve shipped real work using prompts, agents, and agentic loops, you’re starting to build evals, and you have a clear opinion on what verification means when a human didn’t write the code. Deep frontend web experience with TypeScript, React, and Next.js, plus hands-on backend experience building APIs on serverless infrastructure. A track record of improving quality and reliability on a consumer-facing product. You can describe how a system behaves accurately enough for Legal to act on it, and you lead with a clear position rather than the analysis behind it. Comfort with the financial side of running a team, including budgets, cost optimization, and vendor management. PHP 8 on the backend, TypeScript with React and Next.js on the web, and native iOS and Android apps, all backed by a serverless architecture on AWS. Broader AWS infrastructure experience, native mobile development, Next.js deployment, and Kubernetes. Senior and Staff engineers working across web and native mobile. Health, dental, vision insurance - 100% premium coverage for employee and dependents
