Senior Engineering Manager (Civil Aviation)
Airspace Intelligence Com · Boston, US
About this role
## About Air Space Intelligence (ASI) ASI’s mission-critical technology powers decision-making across aviation, defense, energy, and other critical infrastructure domains. Backed by top-tier investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Spark Capital, and Renegade Partners, ASI delivers operational decision superiority—compressing days of analysis into seconds of action. ## Civil Aviation Team ASI is modernizing America’s air traffic control system on an accelerated timeline, tackling one of the world’s most complex real-time optimization challenges: safely coordinating tens of thousands of daily flights in a dynamic, safety-critical environment. The Civil Aviation team is building next-generation trajectory prediction and decision-support systems, while preparing the airspace for emerging technologies like commercial space operations and advanced air mobility. ## What You Will Do As a **Senior Engineering Manager (Civil Aviation)**, you will: - Lead the execution of large-scale, mission-critical systems that power aviation operations. - Oversee multiple engineering teams across a complex, multi-year roadmap, ensuring systems meet strict reliability, performance, and compliance requirements. - Drive execution across parallel workstreams—aligning teams around clear technical direction and delivery against complex system requirements. - Operate deeply at the system design level: guide architecture, enforce engineering standards, and ensure consistency across distributed systems. - Lead and develop teams using a high-autonomy management approach: set clear expectations, support individual growth, and establish the right metrics and feedback loops so teams can execute independently. - Partner closely with product, program management, and domain experts to coordinate delivery across teams. - Build systems that integrate complex datasets, support simulations, and enable real-time decision-making. ## What We Value - Strong experience leading large-scale engineering efforts across multiple teams (e.g., **5–7+ teams**) - Proven ability to manage complex, multi-year roadmaps with many interdependent systems and requirements - Deep understanding of distributed systems and system design, with a focus on **reliability, scalability, and fault tolerance** - Experience driving **high-availability systems** (e.g., **99.99% uptime**) and enforcing reliability standards across teams - **2–3+ years** of engineering management experience, with prior experience as a software engineer - Ability to set structure, align teams, and drive execution across large programs - Experience coordinating work across multiple parallel workstreams with clear ownership and accountability - Strong judgment in prioritization, tradeoffs, and delivery under constraints - High bar for engineering quality, operational excellence, and accountability - Ability to build trust and lead effectively in a mission-critical environment - Exposure to geospatial, mapping, navigation, or aviation-related systems (plus) - Experience working in cloud environments and regulated systems (e.g., **FedRAMP** or similar) (plus) ## How We Hire We view the interview process as an opportunity to simulate what it would be like working together. ASI works with export-controlled technology and restricted U.S. Government data, including contracts that may mandate U.S. immigration status and location restrictions for performing personnel. Employment offers are contingent on the ability to timely obtain all r
