The Role

We’re hiring an Engineering Manager (AI & Data Systems) to lead the technical foundation of Zodiac’s intelligence stack.

What You’ll Do

• Lead design and development of scalable AI and backend systems.
• Architect data pipelines that power real-time analytics and AI-driven automation.
• Manage and mentor backend and AI engineers.
• Oversee development of web scrapers, ETL workflows, and model-serving infrastructure.
• Collaborate with product and growth teams to build intelligent features that drive impact.
• Review architecture, enforce clean code, and ensure strong engineering standards.
• Drive R&D for integrating LLMs, AI agents, and automation frameworks.
• Monitor, debug, and optimize performance across data and AI systems.
