Engineering Manager- Application Platform
OpenFX, Bengaluru +1
What you will do
Key Responsibilities
- Run the Application Platform pod of roughly 8 to 15 engineers and QA, with a Tech Lead reporting to you. You own the roadmap, the standards, and the on-call posture.
- Own the API gateway and edge: routing, plugins, rate limiting, mTLS and HMAC, and rollout strategy for changes sitting in front of production traffic with a rollback path that has actually been exercised.
- Own authentication and session security: strong customer authentication, re-authentication, new-device gating, session revocation, API key and credential management.
- Own API standards and governance: the standards document, the enforcement point, versioning conventions, identifier schemes, and a review process that stays real rather than aspirational.
- Make security review predictable: agree the interface with InfoSec so RFCs get scoped sign-off with named owners and dates, instead of open-ended review that stalls rollouts.
- Stay hands-on. You review designs, and you still write and ship code, debug production, and set the implementation bar by example, including the standard for AI-assisted development.
