About the role
We're looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager for the Radar Protect team. You're a player-coach who can build (write code + review PRs) and manage. This role is in our NYC HQ.
Radar Protect is a core product in the Radar platform. Our customers use it for fraud detection and compliance use cases critical to their organizations. We are an essential part of their operations: they cannot operate their business without our product. The tech stacks of Radar Protect include mobile SDKs, frontend dashboards, server-side APIs, and data services.
How we work:
Most of our engineering team are former technical co-founders or former Radar interns from schools like Waterloo and CMU. Most engineers at Radar fit one of two molds, technically: either Staff level expertise in one stack, or "Multi-Stack" at any level. We say "Multi-Stack" because "Full-Stack" has the connotation of "Frontend and Backend", but Radar Engineers might also work on Mobile or Data engineering. Not that you need to be an expert in all of those, but a desire to learn, jump around to different stacks, and get things done is the important part.
We care a lot about shipping fast and talking to customers. We're committed to our product vision of full-stack location infrastructure, but we also know that customer feedback is a treasure map to gold. Even though Slack is the brain of our company, working together in-person in our NYC HQ is the fastest way for us to get things done. We meet on Mondays to plan out work for the week in small groups and use Linear for planning. All projects are run by an Engineering lead, an executive and a Go-to-Market lead. Engineers figure out what to build, talk to customers, talk to prospects, help close them, get them live and make them successful.
One of our most important company values is "Walk a mile," as in walking a mile in the customer's shoes, but also as in literally walking a mile, getting up from your desk and developing a deep understanding of how location services behave in the real world. To us, a week is a long time, and we expect to ship big things every week.
The stack:
We have mobile SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native and more.
The web dashboard is a React app.
The API layer is a Node.js TypeScript app.
Our main backend service is a geospatial database written in Rust that we call HorizonDB.
We use MongoDB, S3/Athena, Redis, and Airflow.
Everything is deployed to AWS via Kubernetes on EKS using Terraform.
Most engineers are in the on-call rotation.
We sponsor OpenStreetMaps, MapLibre, and OpenAddresses.
How we use AI:

• Engineers choose what AI tools they use, Claude and Codex being the most popular.
• We're actively building Claude skills - for example we've taught it how to debug HorizonDB, our geospatial database.
• All code changes are reviewed by an Engineer knowledgeable in that area. Claude and Codex also review all PRs.
• There is a range of how much engineers use AI. Most use it daily if not weekly.
• We are excited about what AI can do, but we also recognize the risks and don't compromise our coding standards.

The hiring process:
After a call with our Technical Recruiter, you'll do several technical Zoom calls with members of our engineering team: code screen, coding round, and system design round. If those go well, we'll invite you to our NYC HQ for a final round interview. You'll meet one of our co-founders, someone from outside engineering, and meet more people from Radar. We'll go into more depth about how we work to see if there is a match.
What you'll do:

• Provide technical leadership across backend, frontend and mobile tech stacks
• Lead a team of 5 engineers across multiple stacks
• Work on core Radar products using TypeScript, Rust, React, and Mobile languages
• Talk to Radar customers and prospects, hear their feedback, incorporate it into your work and make them successful

You should:

• Think of yourself as a generalist engineer first, not tied to any particular stack
• Are interested in talking to customers or prospects and making them successful

Bonus points if you:

• Are a former technical co-founder
• Have worked on a high throughput, high growth SaaS application
• Have worked on geospatial infrastructure or fraud detection

You'll work with:

• Nick Patrick, Co-Founder and CEO
• Tim Julien, CTO
• Our customers and prospects
• Our Customer Success, Sales Engineering, and Sales teams

What we offer:

• Competitive salary
• Meaningful stock options in a fast-growing company
• 401(k) plan with 4% match
• New HQ in Flatiron, NYC
• Top-notch equipment
• Catered lunches
• Unlimited PTO
• Health, dental, and vision insurance with 100% coverage for employees
• 12 weeks of paid parental leave
• Commuter and fitness benefits

We'll share full details of our benefits package at the offer stage. Benefits may vary by location.
