Waterloo, Canada Parallelz Full time
About Parallelz:

Parallelz enables developers and their existing mobile apps/games, without any SDKs, code changes, or engineering efforts to instantly improve user acquisition, organic virality, new revenue channels, and user experiences and capabilities that were not possible before.

With Parallelz, users can access mobile apps instantly, with lossless quality, at full performance, on any desktop or mobile device. The Parallelz platform enables this by transforming existing native mobile apps into fully-native web apps, in real-time, that can be instantly accessible on any browser. Developers can now have a new frictionless way to reach their customers, free from the restrictions and taxations of the existing app stores.

Parallelz unlocks millions of existing native mobile apps from their silos and transforms them into a more powerful and valuable asset that is fully web-native. Parallelz' novel architecture creates a new category of building blocks for the web, enabling mobile apps and their functionality to become a new type of web primitive. This enables mobile apps and their discrete components, functionality, and data to instantly become directly addressable, configurable, and compositable. Furthermore, this enables entirely new types of dynamically personalized, user and ML-generated, synthetic app experiences.

Our company is building a new technology platform that enables new ways of delivering, discovering, and extending mobile applications -- ways that were never thought possible. We allow developers to - with no modifications to their code - transform existing mobile apps into web-native apps that can run anywhere, all without a walled garden app store.

But this technology doesn't just magically appear, that's where you come in. You will help us build breakthrough technology to enable a radically improved mobile experience for users, giving them more control over their mobile device experience. We are looking for an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join our team and help build our internal tooling to enable us to scale.

Our founding team and advisors are serial entrepreneurs and technologists from Mozilla, MIT, and former founders of high-growth venture-backed startups. The company is joined by top-tier, global venture funds and angel investors.

Job Description:

Our Engineering Manager will work closely with our lead software developers, CEO, Chief Architect, and Technical Product Manager to set project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. A key aspect of this position is mentoring and developing engineers, promoting a collaborative team environment, and fostering innovation. The ideal candidate should possess a technical background, strong leadership skills, and a proven track record of managing high-performing engineering teams in delivering scalable and efficient solutions. Effective communication and strategic decision-making skills are essential to succeed in this role.
