You Might Be a Good Fit If You

• Have 5+ years of engineering background, with enough depth to be credible with engineers building complex systems.
• Have 3+ years managing remote engineering teams.
• Have managed engineering teams at a cloud, SaaS, or developer tools company. Experience with developer tools or databases is a strong preference, but we'll consider any sufficiently technical background where you can demonstrate the ability to ramp on a new domain.
• Have managed remote, globally distributed teams that work asynchronously across disparate time zones.
• Are technical enough to be credible with strong engineers, but genuinely passionate about people management. This is the work you want to do, not a track you're settling for.
• Build psychological safety and a feedback culture: you give feedback often and in the moment, ask for it back, and create space for the team to do the same.
• Operate as a multiplier. Focused on helping individuals achieve more than they could alone, not on being the best technical voice in the room.
• Coach rather than direct. Remove blockers, connect people to context and resources, and trust your engineers to own how the work gets done.
• Have a real track record of performance management and can speak to specific examples of difficult conversations and how you navigated them.
• Are comfortable with ambiguity and capable of building structure where there isn't much.
• Communicate clearly and write well. You're default async, default written, set context proactively, and surface risks early.
• Are collaborative, low-ego, and adaptable. You thrive working with high-autonomy, senior ICs who have strong technical opinions and don't need to be the smartest person in the room.

About the Team

Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love.

• ~400 team members
• 60+ countries
• 20+ languages spoken
• Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F)
• 540,000+ community members

We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support—not replace—existing tools and communities.
