We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead Productivity & Internal Tools - 3 teams inside Bolt's Foundation Platform org that own the internal developer platform, AI, and productivity systems the whole company builds on. This is organisation-wide impact: every engineering team at Bolt is your customer, and you sit at the frontier of how AI and agents are reshaping engineering work. About us With over 200 million customers in 50+ countries, Bolt is one of the fastest-growing tech companies in Europe and Africa. And it's all thanks to our people. We believe in creating an inclusive environment where everyone is welcome, regardless of race, colour, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or disability. Our ultimate goal is to make cities for people, not cars, and we need your help to achieve this mission! About the role This is a Senior Engineering Manager role - the inflection point where the craft shifts to leading through Engineering Managers, not ICs. You set technical direction and the operating system for delivery across these domains, build leadership capability in your managers, and own the group's staffing, strategy, and long-term health (impact horizon ~12+ months). Why this role is exciting: rare org-wide leverage, ownership of Bolt's internal AI/agent platform - in a fast-moving culture where good ideas ship in days. Main tasks and responsibilities: Strong engineering leadership background, including experience leading managers and building high-performing, multi-team organizations. Proven ownership of a product group, platform, or domain, driving technical direction, roadmap, delivery health, architecture, and investment trade-offs. Experience building and scaling developer platforms, productivity systems or developer tooling (e.g., CI/CD, observability, testing, local development). Strong leadership in developing Engineering Managers, driving accountability, improving delivery across multiple teams, and addressing underperformance effectively. Credible technical expertise in scalable systems, cloud infrastructure, microservices, modern engineering practices, and AI-enabled solutions, with the ability to set technical direction. Experience with stakeholder management, clear communication, and data-driven decision-making, track record of partnering closely with Product Managers and influencing roadmap planning. About you: You are an experienced engineering leader who has successfully managed engineers and Engineering Managers in complex technology organizations. You thrive in platform engineering environments and are passionate about improving developer productivity, internal tooling, and engineering excellence at scale. You combine strong technical judgment with strategic thinking, balancing long-term platform investments, reliability, and innovation. You are excited by the opportunity to shape how AI and agent-based technologies transform software engineering workflows. You build high-performing organizations by coaching leaders, creating clear accountability, and fostering a culture of ownership and continuous improvement. You communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders and excel at aligning diverse teams around shared goals. Experience is great, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity. So even if you don’t tick every box, please consider applying!
