What you will do
Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you will lead and grow a team of engineers , owning technical direction plus hiring, growth, and performance for the people on your team who build Sysdig's runtime agent, the software customers install directly in their environments and Sysdog’s the primary data source.

- You have deep working knowledge of OSs internals and instrumentation techniques such as eBPF or kernel modules. Proficiency on Linux internal is required.
- You have experience operating distributed systems at scale, including the reliability and performance trade-offs of software that has to run safely on every host or container it touches.
What we look for
- You have experience on managing a distributed team, with experience on planning with a long term roadmap and features that span across different teams.
- Expertise in Go or Rust will be a plus
- Experience growing a team through a period of rapid product change.
