Job Description

Engineering Manager – Language Clients

ClickHouse

• Recruit, coach, and develop a high-bar team; set crisp expectations and foster a culture of ownership, speed, and continuous improvement. • Mentor engineers at all levels, create growth opportunities, and build psychological safety and a healthy, inclusive environment where engineers do their best work. • Shape the product and execution strategy for language clients to stay ahead of 10x growth. • Make opinionated architectural decisions while maintaining a customer-focused, fast-shipping culture. • Establish measurable UX and developer experience benchmarks and own the roadmap to make ClickHouse client libraries best-in-class in the OLAP space. • Lead expansion from core client libraries into a broader ecosystem: integrations, SDKs, partner tooling, and community-built extensions. • Establish and sustain effective collaboration with OSS communities: contribute, build relationships, and earn trust in public technical spaces. • Represent ClickHouse externally at conferences, in community forums, and with partners. • Build productive relationships with product, developer relations, and sales engineering without losing engineering focus.

Job Requirements

  • 3+ years managing software engineers with a track record of hiring, developing, and retaining strong talent.
  • Demonstrated ability to grow engineers into senior contributors and future leads.
  • Comfortable driving execution in ambiguous environments: setting crisp priorities and delivering impact without over-process.
  • Startup experience preferred.
  • 10+ years of industry experience building developer-facing tools, open source software, or data-intensive systems.
  • Hands-on: you engage with technical designs, review code, and guide via technical feedback.
  • Deep interest in staying on the technological edge - actively follows trends in developer tooling, data, and the OSS space.
  • Experience collaborating with open source communities and earning trust in public technical spaces.
  • Track record of external representation: talks, blog posts, community engagement, or partner development.
  • Strong product ownership — capable of setting direction, not just executing it.
  • Customer-centric: turns developer feedback into roadmap and ships fast with tight feedback loops.

Benefits

  • Flexible work environment - ClickHouse is a globally distributed company and remote-friendly.
  • Healthcare - Employer contributions towards your healthcare.
  • Equity in the company - Every new team member who joins our company receives stock options.
  • Time off - Flexible time off in the US, generous entitlement in other countries.
