## About this role.

[Reddit](https://jobicy.com/company/reddit.md) is a community of communities. It’s built on shared interests, passion, and trust, and is home to the most open and authentic conversations on the internet. Every day, Reddit users submit, vote, and comment on the topics they care most about. With 100,000+ active communities and approximately 130 million daily active unique visitors, Reddit is one of the internet’s largest sources of information. For more information, visit [www.redditinc.com](http://www.redditinc.com/).

This role is open to candidates based in the UK or the Netherlands.

Reddit is where people come to discover, research, and discuss products that inform their purchasing decisions. Shopping, across advertising and organic experiences, is a high priority for the company, and product catalogs are foundational to that work.

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead Reddit’s Product Catalogs team. You will lead a full-stack engineering team responsible for the infrastructure and advertiser-facing experiences that help thousands of advertisers onboard, organize, and manage millions of products. Your team will build intuitive UIs, robust APIs, and scalable backend systems for catalog ingestion, storage, and product data management.

These systems power Dynamic Product Ads (DPA) and organic shopping, connecting users with relevant products in the context of their interests and conversations. Someone browsing r/golf might discover popular golf clubs, while someone reading a discussion about sunglasses in r/BuyItForLife might see the exact models being discussed. Your team will make it easier for advertisers to bring their products to Reddit and participate in these moments of discovery.

In this role, you will set technical direction, develop engineers, and drive execution across the catalog platform and advertiser experience. You will work closely with cross-functional partners to understand customer needs and make catalog onboarding and management seamless. You will also partner with Reddit’s Knowledge Graph teams to support organic shopping experiences.

This role calls for strong technical judgment, people leadership, and a focus on customer needs. It is based in Reddit’s Amsterdam or London office, with a team working across European time zones.

Responsibilities:

* Create a world class catalogs system that can scale to support billions of products
* Work closely with product managers and designers to craft compelling user experiences
* Collaborate with a wide range of teams from Ad Formats to Ad Delivery to ensure successful end-to-end delivery of product ads
* Establish and manage to SLAs within your team
* Be a strong mentor and cross-functional advocate for your team
* Contribute meaningfully to team strategy. We give everyone a seat at the table and encourage active participation in planning for the future. Don’t just come along for the ride.

Required Qualifications:

* 7+ years of experience in backend or full stack product development
* 2+ years of experience managing engineering teams
* You’re highly technical, enough to solve almost any problem your team has yourself, but you prefer to guide your team into solving them.
* Ability to work independently. You’ll be working with stakeholders that are mostly based in North America. You need to be able to make decisions and solve problems autonomously.
* Excellent communication skills. You must be able to collaborate effectively with teams in a fully-remote environment and discuss complex topics with technical and non-technical audiences.

Benefits:

* Global Benefit programs that fit your lifestyle, from workspace to professional development to caregiving support
* Family Planning Support
* Gender-Affirming Care
* Mental Health & Coaching Benefits
* Group Personal Pension Scheme with Employer match
* Private Medical and Dental Scheme
* Income Replacement Programs
* Bike to Work scheme
* Flexible Vacation & Paid Volunteer Time Off
* Generous Paid Parental Leave

Sample interview questionsHow would you design a catalog platform that can scale to billions of products while keeping advertiser workflows responsive?I would separate synchronous advertiser-facing operations from asynchronous ingestion and processing pipelines. The design would use durable event streams, idempotent processors, partitioned storage, clear data-quality states, and cached read models for low-latency UI and API access. I would define capacity, latency, and correctness SLAs early and validate the design through staged load testing.

How do you balance hands-on technical involvement with coaching an experienced engineering team?

I stay close enough to architecture, risks, and critical operational decisions to provide useful guidance without becoming a bottleneck. I use design reviews, one-on-ones, incident retrospectives, and clear ownership boundaries to help engineers make decisions. My goal is to raise the team’s decision-making capability while stepping in directly for ambiguous or high-impact issues.

Describe how you would improve catalog onboarding for advertisers with inconsistent product feeds.

I would begin by analyzing drop-off points, validation failures, and support themes. Then I would prioritize actionable validation feedback, schema mapping tools, preview capabilities, clear remediation workflows, and observability for both advertisers and internal support teams. Success metrics would include onboarding completion, time to first usable catalog, feed health, and reduced manual intervention.

How would you establish and operate SLAs for a product catalog team?

I would define service-level indicators for ingestion freshness, API availability, processing latency, data accuracy, and incident response. Each SLO would have an agreed target, error budget, dashboard, and escalation path. I would review trends regularly with the team and use error-budget consumption to guide reliability investments versus feature delivery.

How do you collaborate effectively with stakeholders primarily located in North American time zones?

I create predictable overlap windows for high-bandwidth decisions and rely on strong asynchronous communication for everything else. This includes concise decision records, written project updates, documented ownership, and clear escalation channels. I also make sure meetings have explicit objectives and that outcomes are available to partners who cannot attend.
