Engineering Team Manager, API & Service Frameworks

Squarespace is looking for an Engineering Team Manager to lead the API and Service Frameworks team within the Building Blocks Platform Engineering group. This team owns critical infrastructure—including the public API gateway, Java-based service framework, and external developer portal—that supports both internal development and external integrations. In this high-impact role, you'll guide technical strategy, grow and mentor engineers, and collaborate with stakeholders to shape core systems used across the company.

You will report to the Engineering Manager of the Backend Platform team in our NYC office. This is a hybrid opportunity with three days in the office per week.

You will like working with us if you want to:

  • Have strong opinions about software development best practices and security by default.
  • Are bothered by using outdated or EOL technology, and enjoy ensuring teams are always on a supported, stable versions.
  • Believe that internal platform teams should have a product mindset toward our internal customers - we're building things to help product engineers go to market faster, not just because something is cool.
  • Collaborate well with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Have experience in service-oriented architecture design and best practices.

Qualifications:

  • 6+ years of backend engineering experience in Java and Spring.
  • 2+ years in a team lead, tech lead, or engineering management role.
  • Experience building and maintaining frameworks, platforms, or developer tooling at scale.
  • Strong understanding of API architecture, lifecycle management, and developer experience.
