WHAT YOU’LL DO

The Platform Engineering Manager leads the Data Streaming team, a specialized group of platform and reliability engineers responsible for building and operating Braze’s managed data streaming platform. Powered by Kafka, Kafka Streams, and Apache Flink, the platform aims to make data streaming a solved problem, allowing internal product teams to ship streaming features without managing the underlying infrastructure. This role combines technical leadership, engineering management, and product ownership to deliver reliable, low-friction platform services that minimize cognitive load for internal consumers.

Treating the platform as a product, the manager owns the long-term vision, gathers requirements from internal engineering teams, and drives adoption through clean, "paved-road" interfaces.
