Engineering Manager, Enterprise

About Wispr

We're building the first voice interface a billion people use every day.

Our first product, Flow, lets you talk instead of type anywhere on your computer or phone, and turns messy speech into polished text that is ready to send. It's scaled from $2M → $50M in ARR in under 12 months with millions of users and thousands of enterprise customers. Read the master plan →

The team is still small enough that every person shapes what gets built.

What You'll Do

• Scale Wispr's revenue from enterprise customers over 10x in the next year, into the $x00m ARR range.
• Partner closely with PM and the Head of Sales to build the team, roadmap, and product to achieve our ambitious goals.
• Own enterprise engineering end to end: architecture, roadmap, technical direction, and the bar for quality.
• Hire and coach a world-class engineering team around you.
• Extend our fledgling enterprise-readiness layer that unlocks deals: SSO and SAML, SCIM, RBAC, audit logging, an admin console, data residency, and the security and compliance posture (SOC 2, ISO 27001) that enterprise buyers require.
• Build out functionality for teams and companies so that the world's largest companies get more value out of Wispr by using it together
• Build tooling for our Sales and Customer Success teams to have the leverage needed to support a massively scaling business
• Stay hands-on. You'll use coding agents to make sure you're grounded in the codebase and serving as an effective player-coach.
  
  

What we're looking for

• You've led teams from a SMB or product-led motion into the enterprise before.
• A consistent track record of delivering what you said you'd deliver, under customer pressure and through incidents and outages.
• Real domain instinct. You can see around corners on the problems an enterprise business will hit, and you level up the people around you because of it.
• Management experience, plus the open-mindedness to rebuild engineering management for the agentic era. We want someone who knows the best practices and is thoughtful about when they do and don't still apply.
• Engineering judgment. You can assess the quality and velocity of your team's output, and execute credibly yourself when it's needed.
• Intrinsic motivation for these problems, and the ability to make other people feel it too, in your team and in the candidates you recruit.
  
  

Logistics

Location. About 60% of the team is in San Francisco and the rest are remote, mostly US-based.

• If you're in SF: you'll be in the office most days. We think the best work happens in person. Most of the team is here five days a week, and a few do three or four days depending on family or long commutes.
• If you're remote: we're open to remote for most roles. We fly remote teammates to SF for three to four days a month and coordinate those weeks so everyone overlaps. Flights and accommodation covered.
  
  

Visa sponsorship. We sponsor visas: H1B, O1, EB1, L1, STEM OPT, and more. We can't successfully sponsor for every role and every candidate, but if we make you an offer we'll make every reasonable effort, and we retain an immigration law firm to help.

What we offer

We're a small, focused team that cares deeply about the quality of our work and the people we do it with. Here's what you can expect:

• Equity on employee-friendly terms, including early exercise and extended exercise windows with a combination of ISOs and RSUs. Ask us for more details!
• Health, dental and vision. We cover 100% of the premium on the Anthem Blue Cross Gold PPO, and 75% of premiums for dependents. (US)
• 401(k) with up to a 4% match. (US)
• 16 weeks of paid parental leave (12 weeks for non-birthing parent).
• Flexible time off and company holidays.
• All meals in the office, plus commuter benefits and relocation reimbursement if you’re moving to San Francisco.
• A high-spec laptop, monitor, and a whisper-friendly microphone.
• Regular team events and off-sites.
  
  

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We’re designing how humans interact with AI, which makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.

We are committed to ensuring a fair and accessible interview process. If you need any accommodations or adjustments, please let us know.

Compensation Range: $250K - $375K
