Zapier is on the lookout for a talented Engineering Manager to lead our Partner Solutions team
This team sits squarely within Zapier’s external platform — the suite of APIs, SDKs, and embedding tools that allow others to extend Zapier’s automation platform beyond zapier.com
The APIs specifically are at the heart of this team’s ownership; think the public APIs that let an external group embed automation into their own product
You’ll lead our technical team with a focus on taking full ownership of the team’s engineering strategy — not just executing what’s handed to you, but shaping it
The team's work directly impacts how partners grow with Zapier, how they retain their own users, and how automation gets embedded into the products millions of people use every day
Lead and develop a team of 4–7 engineers, providing technical direction, mentorship, and career growth opportunities
Own the engineering strategy for Partner Solutions; shaping it in collaboration with your PM and zone leadership, then driving its execution with full accountability
Build deep technical understanding across the team’s domain: the Powered by Zapier API surface, embedding solutions (Workflow Element, Zap creation, Action Runs), Managed Authentication, Zap Templates, Sponsor User Automation, and AI workflow features
Work with the engineering team to make, evaluate, and advocate for architectural decisions that align with Zapier’s vision and technical standards
Collaborate across engineering teams to evaluate and inform technical decisions, creating alignment and removing blockers for the team’s roadmap
Proactively identify stakeholders impacted by the team’s work, including partner-facing and internal teams and build those cross-functional relationships independently
Champion problem-solving by identifying technical challenges and improving engineering processes
Be a close partner with product to tackle partner and user problems effectively, and align the team closely to the roadmap
Communicate effectively to lead your team and keep leadership informed on progress through one-on-ones, team meetings, and leadership updates
Set clear performance expectations for engineers and support their growth to meet those goals
Foster a culture of experimentation, rapid learning, and continuous improvement
