Platform Engineering Manager
Full-time • Paris / Remote
About the role
We are looking for a Platform Engineering Manager to lead and grow our platform team while keeping a strong hand on technical direction. You will be responsible for a team of three confirmed / senior platform engineers, and your mission is to make them, and the wider engineering organization, more effective: shipping reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructure, and enabling product teams to move fast through strong self-service capabilities.
This is a player-coach role. You will spend most of your time leading: coaching engineers, setting standards, owning the platform roadmap, and partnering with stakeholders. But you will stay close enough to the technology to review work, pair when it matters, and make sound architectural calls with your team.
You will own reliability, security, performance, and cost across both cloud and on-premise environments, and continuously adapt the platform and the team's capabilities to evolving technologies.
Your team
You will lead a team of three confirmed / senior platform engineers. They are experienced and autonomous, so your role is less about directing day-to-day execution and more about giving them clarity, removing friction, growing their scope, and raising the overall technical bar.
Our stack
Back-end
On the back end, the REST API is historically implemented with Django. However, new developments are done with Deno, so TypeScript. The database technology is AWS Aurora with Postgres compatibility, for both Django and Deno servers. With Deno, we use Drizzle as a lightweight ORM. We heavily use Honeycomb and Sentry to understand what goes on at scale. Our coding style in TypeScript is inspired by data-oriented programming.
Front-end
Our web app is a single-page application in Vue.js, partially in TypeScript; we migrate from JavaScript as we go. The front-end application is continuously deployed with Cloudflare Pages, which allows for preview URLs on pull requests. We use Claap to share videos of our work and Sentry to log errors. We also have a mobile application, developed with Vue.js and Capacitor.
Infrastructure
The servers run as containers on AWS. We use ECS and Fargate, and we plan to use EKS in the future. The infrastructure is entirely Terraformed, using CDKTF with TypeScript. A small number of customers have dedicated infrastructures. We also support on-premise deployments using Kubernetes operators, alongside a deployment toolkit built with Nix. For observability, we use Honeycomb, built on OpenTelemetry, giving us structured traces across the stack.
What we expect from the role
Leading the team
Owning the platform
Working across the org
Leadership
Technical foundation (you should be credible and hands-on enough to lead this team)
Interview Process
1. Screening - 30 min A first call to align on your background, motivations, and what Fabriq can offer.
2. ITW Managent Skills - 45 min A role-play exercise based on your past management experiences.
3. Technical interview - 90 to 120 min A deep-dive with the Platform team on real infrastructure and engineering challenges.
4. Meet the Platform team An informal exchange with your future teammates to see how we'd work together.
5. Meet the CEOs A final conversation on Fabriq's vision, ambition, and culture fit.

What we expect from the role
Leading the team
- Lead, coach, and grow a team of three confirmed / senior platform engineers, supporting their development through regular feedback, career conversations, and technical mentoring
- Set and raise the technical bar through reviews, pairing, and clear engineering standards
- Own hiring for the team and shape how it scales over time
- Build a healthy, autonomous, high-trust environment where senior platform engineers can do their best work
Owning the platform
- Own the platform roadmap and technical vision, balancing reliability, security, cost, and delivery speed
- Deliver infrastructure changes through automation while maintaining high availability and a strong engineering experience
- Enable engineers to focus on product development by delivering self-service capabilities that abstract infrastructure and security complexity
- Enable on-premise customers to use Fabriq reliably
- Adapt organizational and platform capabilities to technological evolutions
Working across the org
- Partner with engineering, product, and security stakeholders to align priorities and facilitate change management
- Communicate clearly through documentation, technical decisions, and customer-facing relationships
Leadership
- Experience managing or leading engineers, ideally including senior / confirmed profiles, with a track record of growing people through mentoring and technical guidance
- Ability to set the technical bar and hold it, with the maturity that comes from significant production experience
- Strong communication skills for documentation writing, stakeholder alignment, and change management facilitation
