About This Position

This hands-on Engineering Manager, Maps & Search - US (Remote) role at Luxurypresence centers on the highly visible Maps & Search group, which runs the core home discovery surface used daily by real estate professionals. The underlying search service processes roughly a billion requests monthly while supporting hundreds of millions of listings. The company is a Series C organization that has reached $100M in annual recurring revenue, backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and additional leading investors, and powers more than 90,000 real estate professionals—including over 30 percent of the WSJ Real Trends top 100 agents in the United States—with its AI growth platform for real estate. You will combine technical leadership with people leadership, staying embedded in codebases and AI-assisted workflows while elevating a lean, senior, AI-augmented group that ships consistent business impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and develop the Maps & Search engineering group through hiring, onboarding, coaching, regular one-on-ones, candid feedback, and career-path guidance, treating team leadership itself as a craft that produces a healthy, high-output unit.
• Remain deeply technical by performing code and design reviews, driving architecture decisions, and tackling complex debugging so that trade-offs are evaluated with first-hand insight.
• Direct the architecture, relevance quality, latency targets, and reliability of a real-estate search platform that processes approximately one billion monthly requests and hundreds of millions of listings.
• Own the end-to-end home discovery experience on web and mobile, raising engagement, conversion rates, and agent productivity while preserving speed and responsiveness at large scale.
• Advance AI-enabled discovery by collaborating across functions to integrate large language models and smarter ranking into search flows, helping buyers and agents find, filter, and interact with listings more effectively.
• Partner with product and design to shape the roadmap—clarifying what to build and why—then convert user insights and business objectives into an executable technical plan and deliver it fully, covering planning, quality, reliability, and incident handling.

Skills & Qualifications

• Eight or more years of professional software engineering experience that includes substantial senior or staff-level contributions, plus two or more years leading engineering teams.
• Proven work on search, relevance, ranking, or retrieval systems and a solid grasp of how to improve search quality regardless of the specific engine used.
• Deep command of TypeScript, Node.js, and React together with full-stack fluency that spans the entire request path from interface to data stores.
• Background designing and running scalable microservice architectures in cloud-native settings, preferably AWS.
• Strong facility with GraphQL, event-driven patterns such as Kafka, and databases including PostgreSQL and OpenSearch.
• Demonstrated success operating high-traffic, low-latency production systems at scale, including SLOs, incident response, and capacity planning.
• Track record of steering high-impact initiatives from idea through production release inside a SaaS environment.
• Comfort leading from the front while remaining close to the code, treating AI as an everyday workflow tool rather than an experiment, holding strong yet adaptable views on how AI reshapes architecture and culture, connecting technical choices to customer and business outcomes, communicating complex trade-offs clearly to cross-functional partners, thriving amid ambiguity and rapid change, and fostering a lively team atmosphere that balances craft excellence with enjoyment.
