About this role
WHO WE ARE
Atlan is building the context layer for enterprise AI. Enterprises are pouring money into AI and most of it dies in production because the AI does not understand the business context around the data. That is the problem Atlan solves.
Gartner has named context the defining issue in enterprise AI, and calls context graphs the essential infrastructure for AI agents, naming Atlan one of three vendors already building it. We are also the only vendor named a Leader across all four major Gartner and Forrester evaluations for data catalogs, data governance and metadata management, the foundation the context layer runs on.
Come build the infrastructure that AI runs on.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Atlan is building the context layer for the AI era, the control plane that makes enterprise data usable, governed, extensible, and AI-ready.
We're looking for an Engineering Manager to join one of our core platform teams. This is not a coordination role. We need an engineer-first, hands-on platform leader who has built and owned foundational systems at scale, whether that's distributed platform primitives and ingestion infrastructure, or data quality systems and AI-native product surfaces that sit on top of them.
WHAT WILL YOU DO?
BUILD THE AI-READY CONTEXT FOUNDATION
Lead the engineering charter to design and evolve an AI-ready context store across structured, unstructured, vector, and graph systems. This platform powers apps, agents, and enterprise workflows on top of trusted data.
OWN CORE PLATFORM PRIMITIVES
Drive end-to-end delivery of complex platform capabilities, including:
– High-scale ingestion and validation frameworks
– Contract-driven routing, storage, and serving layers
– Multi-tenant isolation and noisy-neighbor resilience
– Search APIs with sub-second P95 response times
– Systems operating at 99.99% availability
You’ll simplify ambiguous problems, define clear technical direction, and ensure teams ship durable, high-leverage infrastructure.
LEAD FROM THE FRONT
Engage deeply in architecture and systems design. Guide distributed systems tradeoffs, review RFCs, unblock critical issues, and participate meaningfully in technical decisions. This role requires technical depth, not just coordination.
SCALE TEAMS AND OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
Build and mentor high-performing engineers. Define engineering metrics, on-call practices, SLO discipline, and incident processes. Strengthen the operational engine behind a platform serving 100K+ users and billions of assets.
WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT MATCH FOR US?
EXPERIENCE BUILDING DATA OR PLATFORM PRIMITIVES AT SCALE
You’ve built or owned foundational systems such as:
– Data ingestion frameworks or lakehouse foundations
– Metadata, governance, or catalog platforms
– Multi-tenant SaaS infrastructure and tenant isolation mechanisms
– Search, storage, or distributed serving layers
– Data quality, validation, or contract enforcement systems
We’re particularly excited about leaders who have operated in data platform environments but equally value those who have built core platforms and shared infrastructure powering enterprise SaaS systems.
PLATFORM LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE
You’ve led and scaled engineering teams (including managing managers), ideally within platform, infrastructure, or data-heavy SaaS organizations.
STRONG DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS AND RELIABILITY DEPTH
You bring credibility in distributed systems, cloud-native architectures, and operating high-availability platforms with strict SLOs.
BUILDER MINDSET WITH HIGH AGENCY
You thrive in ambiguity, move fast with ownership, and build foundational systems from first principles. You’re comfortable operating in evolving environments and shaping direction, not just executing on defined scope.
AI-NATIVE CURIOSITY
You actively explore AI-assisted development workflows and think critically about how agentic systems will reshape developer productivity and platform design. You don’t need to be an AI/ML expert, but you…

What the pay looks like
Atlan has not published a salary for this role. That is normal — many employers only discuss pay once you reach the offer stage. Ask the recruiter for the range early so you do not spend weeks on a process that cannot meet your number.
Whatever figure you are quoted is CTC, not take-home. Employer PF, gratuity and any variable component sit inside it. Our in-hand salary calculator converts a CTC figure into a realistic monthly number.
Before you apply
Never pay to apply. No genuine employer charges a registration fee, security deposit or training cost. Any request for money is a scam, without exception.
Apply through the employer’s own domain. The button above points at Atlan’s careers portal. If you reach this role through a message or email instead, navigate to the company’s site yourself rather than following the link.
Hold back personal documents. Bank details and identity documents belong at the offer stage, confirmed over official company email — never during a chat-app conversation.
