- Have experience building with AI or agentic systems, or demonstrated ability to get deep in the space quickly

- Have a track record of turning ambiguous technical problems into systems that customers can actually use

- Are comfortable balancing long-term architecture with the pressure to ship and learn

- Have a leadership style that combines high technical standards with strong coaching and team development

- Stay curious and open to growth — actively building fluency in emerging technologies like AI to unlock creativity, accelerate progress, and amplify impact

What the job involves

- Webflow is the agentic web marketing platform for modern marketing teams, helping organizations build, manage, and optimize high-performing web experiences that drive predictable growth and strengthen brand trust

- Building at Webflow will need grit, because we move fast, without ever sacrificing craft or quality

- We're looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead the team building code-native Webflow: a high-fidelity code representation that moves seamlessly between visual and code-based workflows, so developers can work directly in code and trust nothing gets lost coming back





- This foundation also powers a recent class of coding agents that understand and modify the same underlying system

- This is a player-coach role: you'll grow an exceptional team while staying close to the technical work: shaping architecture, resolving hard design decisions, and contributing directly when it helps the team move faster

- Reporting to the Director of Engineering

- Set the technical and product direction for making Webflow code-native, including high-fidelity round-tripping between visual and code surfaces

- Lead the integration of coding agents into the Webflow building experience

- Own the developer experience of working with Webflow in code, from core primitives and APIs to tooling and feedback loops

- Turn an emerging problem space into a coherent roadmap, sequencing foundational platform work with customer-facing capabilities

- Partner closely with product, design, and engineering teams across Webflow

- Stay technically engaged through architecture, design reviews, prototyping, and hands-on contribution where it has the most leverage

- Hire, coach, and develop engineers while building a high-performing technical culture
