We are looking for a builder, leader, organizer, and problem solver to lead the Amplify Engineering team, which builds systems of efficiency and automation for internal Klaviyos.

How You’ll Make An Impact

• Manage a portfolio of internal tools that serve Klaviyo’s Sales and R&D organizations, driving efficiency and productivity through automation.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and senior stakeholders to translate organizational challenges into high-quality software solutions.
• Foster a culture of innovation, curiosity, and technical excellence within the team.

Who You Are

• 6–8+ years of software engineering experience, including 3–5+ years managing high-performing teams in a fast-paced SaaS environment.

• Skilled at leading teams that build internal platforms, tools, or systems for automation and efficiency.
• Strong communicator who can align stakeholders, manage competing priorities, and drive consensus across teams.
• A natural mentor and coach who develops engineers through constructive feedback and opportunities for growth.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving clarity — you set direction even when the path isn’t fully defined.
• Excited to experiment with AI tools to boost team productivity and innovation.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with AWS (or other cloud providers), Terraform, and Kubernetes.

• 60 Days: You’re assessing team roadmaps, weighing stakeholder and team input, and ensuring alignment with the vision and priorities you’re setting for the team.
• 90 Days: You’ve implemented tools that improve how your team and stakeholders work, reviewed key architectures, and led by example through proof-of-concept work to guide your engineers.

In Your First Year
