Engineering Manager leading the product engineering team at Twelve Labs for developing video understanding technology. Responsible for translating AI models into customer-facing products and delivering high-quality software.
Responsibilities
Own the end-to-end product engineering surface built on top of TwelveLabs' foundation models — Marengo and Pegasus. Translate model capabilities and constraints into reliable, high-quality customer-facing features and workflows.
Drive the product engineering roadmap for the Korea team: from understanding customer needs and use cases to shipping well-crafted, production-grade software.
Work closely with Science and ML teams to stay ahead of model developments, and ensure new capabilities are productionized quickly and correctly.
Hold a high bar for product quality — what customers see, touch, and feel matters as much as what's under the hood.
Lead, grow, and manage a fullstack product engineering team in Korea. Own the full management lifecycle: recruiting, onboarding, 1:1s, performance reviews, and career development.
Build a culture of ownership, speed, and craft — where the team ships with urgency without sacrificing quality or user experience.
Lead architectural and technical decision-making for the team. Stay hands-on where it matters: system design reviews, critical-path decisions, and high-risk technical areas.
Translate product and company goals into clear technical plans, milestones, and timelines. Make trade-offs explicit and manage dependencies across pods.
Drive fast, predictable release cycles through structured planning, weekly reviews, and retrospectives that lead to continuous improvement. Own delivery, quality, and operational excellence end-to-end.
Collaborate closely with Product, GTM, and Science teams to align on roadmap, priorities, and customer needs.
Requirements
8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 3+ years in an engineering management role leading fullstack product teams.
Experience building and shipping customer-facing products in B2B or enterprise contexts, with a high bar for product quality and user experience.
Strong fullstack engineering background — you can credibly review and guide decisions across frontend, backend, and infra layers.
Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous product goals into clear technical execution: scoping, planning, and delivery with minimal overhead.
Strong communication skills with the ability to align cross-functional teams across KR and US time zones.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience taking a product from 0 to 1 — you've navigated ambiguity, made early architectural bets, and shipped something that didn't exist before.
Experience scaling a product from 1 to many — you've hardened systems under real load, managed growing team complexity, and maintained quality while expanding scope.
Familiarity with modern software engineering and infrastructure stacks — e.g., Python, Go, TypeScript/React, AWS, Kubernetes.
Business-level English proficiency — able to communicate clearly in writing and in meetings with cross-functional and international stakeholders.
