Engineering Manager - Agentic Workflows (Falcon Cloud Security)

The Falcon Cloud Security team is looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager / Team Lead to lead the development of Agentic Workflows - a transformative initiative aimed at automating complex security operations using AI-native agents. You will lead a team of talented engineers while remaining deeply technical, helping architect and build autonomous systems that don't just alert but actively reason, investigate, and remediate security risks across multi-cloud environments.
As a player-coach, you will help shape the "brain" of our cloud security platform, guiding both the people and the technology that leverages large-scale data and AI-driven logic to help customers discover misconfigurations, prioritize risks, and automate defensive actions at scale.

What You'll Do:

Lead & Grow a Team: Manage, mentor, and develop a team of backend engineers, fostering a high-trust, high-performance culture. Conduct regular 1:1s, support career growth, and drive hiring to scale the team.

Stay Hands-On: Remain an active technical contributor - designing, reviewing, and writing production-quality code alongside your team. Lead by example and maintain a strong engineering presence.

Design & Architect: Drive backend engineering efforts to build autonomous agentic frameworks, guiding the team from rapid prototypes to large-scale production applications.

Develop Core Logic: Contribute to and oversee the development of decision-making engines and workflows that allow security agents to interact with cloud APIs (AWS, Azure, GCP) and internal data streams.

Data Integration: Guide the development of high-performance data integrations and streaming services (Kafka) to feed real-time security data into agentic models for continuous reasoning.

Scale Systems: Architect and oversee distributed systems capable of processing billions of security events to provide actionable posture intelligence and automated remediation.

Drive Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product, Design, and peer engineering teams in a "startup-like" environment to define and deliver new platform capabilities with speed and quality.

Raise the Bar: Champion engineering excellence, new technologies, and best practices across the team and broader engineering organization.
