Engineering Manager - Spark

We're looking for Engineering Managers to lead engineering effort on Supabase Spark. Supabase Spark is an initiative to build the next frontier of agentic databases, supporting billions of databases, with millions of databases created every day.

Although we don’t require managers to contribute to code directly, we do expect you to participate in design discussions and to be involved in setting the bar for engineering quality and best practices.

WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

• Build a healthy, high-trust team culture in a remote-first, globally distributed environment.
• Run 1:1s, performance management, career development, and onboarding for your direct reports.
• Handle people admin (leave, time off, etc.) for your team.
• Own the hiring plan for your team and act as Hiring Manager. First round of interviewer for all roles on the team.
• Partner with Talent Acquisition to source, interview, and close strong candidates.
• Contribute to headcount planning, org design, and the evolution of engineering leadership at Supabase.
• Own the team's roadmap and project management (Linear), driving accountability and clear milestones.
• Manage workflow intake and Slack triage. These are the team’s primary inboxes for cross-team requests. You decide what gets routed where, prioritized, or pushed back on.
• Own the team's weekly updates and keep stakeholders aligned without creating overhead.
• Organize effort against support tickets and maintain the team's SLO.
• Surface risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs early and clearly to leadership.
• Train as an Incident Commander. Drive coordination, resolution, and post-incident follow-up.
• Lead blameless post-incident reviews
