The Platform Ecosystem & Enablement team is a high-leverage group of developers responsible for the entire "universe" surroqunding the core Consul product. This team's mission is holistic: to accelerate internal developer velocity, guarantee enterprise-grade release quality, and drive external user adoption through a world-class tooling and integration ecosystem. 

This Consul Ecosystem & Enablement team, is a team of 8-10 engineers owns three critical charters: that needs to be executed as part of various Journey teams in collaboration with Consul-Core team  

Platform & Developer Experience: Building our internal CI/CD pipelines and DevEx and the external-facing platform features (Observability, Monitoring, DR, Security, Product Supportability). 

Test Infrastructure & Quality: Building the automated "factory" and quality gates to prove Consul is reliable, scalable, and enterprise-ready. 

Development of Tooling in the consul Ecosystem: Building and maintaining all official tools (e.g., consul-template) and runtime integrations (e.g., AWS ECS, OpenShift, Lambda) that drive user adoption. 

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead this versatile team of engineers. Your primary mission is to act as a force multiplier for the entire Consul organization. You will lead the team that builds the tools, test infrastructure, and integrations that enable our internal engineers to move faster and our external customers to adopt Consul seamlessly. 

You will bring a strong enterprise product background, understanding what it takes to build, test, support, and integrate complex, self-managed software for the world's largest organizations. This is a "builder-of-builders" role for a leader who is passionate about developer productivity, rock-solid quality, and a thriving user ecosystem. 

What You'll Do (Responsibilities) 

• Lead a Unified Team: Recruit, mentor, and lead a single, high-performing team of 8-10 developers who span all three charters (Platform, Quality, and Ecosystem). 

• Own the Ecosystem & Tooling Charter: Drive the strategy, development, and maintenance for core ecosystem tools (consul-template, envconsul, etc.) and platform-specific integrations (AWS ECS, OpenShift, Lambda), making Consul easy to adopt in any environment. 

• Own the Platform & DevEx Charter: Lead the roadmap for our internal CI/CD pipelines, build tooling, and engineering observability. You will also own the development of core external-facing platform features like Observability integrations, Disaster Recovery (DR) strategies, and security components (ACLs, SSO, audit logging).

You will lead the design and operation of our large-scale, automated test harness to simulate complex, real-world enterprise topologies (multi-DC, high-scale) and validate all upgrade paths, performance benchmarks, and backward compatibility. 

• Be the Key Stakeholder Partner: Serve as the primary partner for peer EMs, Product Management, Support, and Release Management. You will translate their needs into a single, prioritized technical roadmap for your team, balancing internal velocity with external quality and adoption.
