How we know
It hasn't been reposted, listed twice, or left up unusually long, and the posting doesn't say it's a talent pool.
Ghostless records the day it first sees a posting, so a repost can't reset its age. This one was already up when Ghostless started tracking Tigerdata, so its true age is longer.

About the role
At Tiger Data, formerly Timescale, we empower developers and businesses with the fastest PostgreSQL platform designed for transactional, analytical, and agentic workloads. Trusted globally by thousands of organizations, Tiger accelerates real-time insights, drives intelligent applications, and powers critical infrastructure at scale. As a globally distributed, remote-first team committed to direct communication, accountability, and collaborative excellence, we're shaping the future of data infrastructure, built for speed, flexibility, and simplicity.
Senior Engineering Manager, Database
We’re looking for an exceptional engineering leader for the Database team, which owns TimescaleDB , and more products crucial for the business. You’ll lead multiple teams focused on dedicated areas of the product, own the execution of the team, take stake in creating an achievable roadmap, establish a bottom-up culture, stay close enough to the tech to help make design decisions, and be an awesome person to work with. You must have a strong track record of managing high-performing systems engineering teams and deep familiarity with database or systems software. Hands-on expertise in C and PostgreSQL internals is a strong plus, but not a must.
This is a remote and full-time position.
What you will be responsible for
- Lead, grow, and mentor a globally distributed team of database internals engineers. You own hiring, performance management, career development, and team health.
- Own team execution and set the technical roadmap with Product, owning prioritization, balancing speed, quality, and long-term maintainability.
- Partner closely with the Platform Engineering team and other engineering leaders to build a world-class experience for our customers on Tiger Cloud.
- Engage with high-value customers on escalations and elevated technical needs, translating their experiences into priorities for your team.
- Be an enthusiastic and personable leader who sets a high bar, and helps the broader engineering organization succeed.
You'd be a great fit if you have
- 8+ years of engineering experience, including a minimum of 4+ years managing engineers or engineering teams.
- A track record of building and leading high-performing teams that ship industrial-strength systems software.
- Strong technical depth in distributed systems or databases; experience with C/C++ on large code bases is highly desirable, but not a must.
- Familiarity with PostgreSQL internals is a strong plus (but not required).
- Solid knowledge of SQL, query processing and database engines, concurrency control, data replication, and/or distributed systems.
- Passion for building highly reliable system software and for developing the people who build it.
