Engineering Manager (Social)

• We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to lead Suno’s Social team — a small, high-caliber group of fullstack product engineers building the network effects that turn Suno from a single-player creation tool into a creative network
• You’ll own the team’s talent, delivery, and technical direction across the social layer: organic notifications, profiles and creative identity, the follow graph, and social engagement from sharing to comments
• This is a hands-on leadership role — you’ll grow the team, set the technical bar by example, and partner closely with product, design, and data science to discover what social means for music
• The charter is still expanding (sharing is next), so you’ll help shape where it goes, not just execute a fixed roadmap
• Lead a small team of fullstack product engineers who own Suno’s social layer — notifications, profiles, the follow graph, and social engagement from sharing to comments
• Grow the team by hiring strong engineers, developing them across the stack, and holding a high bar through honest, firm performance management
• Set technical direction for social systems at scale — guiding architecture for the follow graph, notifications, and profiles, and championing mobile-first API design
• Partner with product, design, and data science on roadmap ideation, discovering and fostering the emergent social behaviors that deepen engagement
• Ship retention-driving features with end-to-end rigor: metrics read-outs, logging, dogfooding, and post-launch follow-up
• Advance Suno’s mission of making creative fulfillment a daily reality by building the network that lets people create and experience music together

• Enough technical depth to guide architecture and stay hands-on — you can review code, weigh trade-offs, and jump into the codebase when it helps
• Genuine, demonstrable intuition for social products and network effects — you’re a real user and a first-principles thinker about what makes products sticky, and you understand how to grow a network without collapsing context
• A track record of creating structure in ambiguous, 0→1 environments, ideally shipping consumer social products at startup pace
• A love of music (listening, exploring, making — we’re not picky about genre)
• Strong asynchronous, cross-functional communicator who reduces ambiguity rather than creating it
• Experience on a growth team — social and growth are two sides of the same coin
• Founding or 0→1 experience inside a larger organization (a “startup within a startup”)
• Familiarity with network-effects and engagement-mechanics literature
• Fullstack range across mobile, web, and backend
