Senior Engineering Manager

Overview

Dev Rev is building the future of work with Computer – your AI teammate. Computer unifies data from tools like Google Workspace, Jira, and Notion into one AI-ready source of truth:
Computer Memory. It provides powerful search, reasoning, action, and extensions for teams and customers, enabling human–AI collaboration and reducing repetition and frustration in daily work. Dev Rev is backed by Khosla Ventures and Mayfield, with 150M+ raised, and is 650+ people across eight global offices. Dev Rev’s mission is to unlock team potential through human-AI collaboration.

We have built a native Knowledge Graph capable of syncing structured and unstructured records from external systems, providing semantic search, automations, agentic skills, and deep analytical querying. This is coupled with permission/access management, an agent studio, an execution engine, and a native observability platform to enable agentic applications for enterprises and startups alike.

About the role:
