We are looking for a software engineering manager passionate about programming languages, compilers, and the developer experience. We are a fast paced and collaborative group working to improve the Swift language and compiler.

You will have the opportunity to affect design decisions not only on the Swift programming language and its developer-facing tools, but also general programming patterns, adoption of Swift in new domains, and community building/outreach across the Swift ecosystem.
