Twitter is what’s happening and what people are talking about right now. For us, life's not about a job, it's about purpose. We believe real change starts with conversation. Here, your voice matters. Come as you are and together we'll do what's right (not what's easy) to serve the public conversation.

As the Sr. Engineering Manager of the Service Validation team, you will be tasked with building out a brand new software engineering team at Twitter. Your team will work alongside our Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) teams to provide a cohesive change management experience for engineering teams at Twitter.

Our in-house CI and CD platforms serve engineers at Twitter running the thousands of microservices that powers Twitter. The tooling you and your team own will be a key part in ensuring engineering teams have the tools and frameworks they need to safely, confidently, and continuously integrate and deploy their code changes. Our goal is to provide engineering teams the ability to quickly and easily write validation tests to level up their confidence in identifying issues before they hit production.

You’ll work directly with both internal customers and peers from other Platform teams on many kinds of projects and technologies that help engineers ship code changes to production
