About the Role
We’re building the most powerful reporting and analytics engine in our industry — a system that brings unified insights across marketing, sales, revenue, and automation into one seamless platform that transforms data into decision-making intelligence. This is the team responsible for turning raw, multi-channel, multi-source event data into clean, trustworthy, real-time intelligence. That’s the mission. That’s the team. And you’ll lead it.
This isn’t a “manage dashboards” role. This is the foundation of data intelligence across the entire HighLevel ecosystem that helps millions of businesses make real business decisions, in real time. If the data is wrong, businesses lose trust. If reports are slow, people lose clarity. Your job is to make sure that doesn’t happen.
As an Engineering Manager, you’ll manage a team of 6-10 engineers responsible for the full Reporting & Analytics platform — pipelines, modeling, transformations, caching, query execution, and visualization layers. This is the central data intelligence layer of HighLevel — and you’ll own its stability, scale, and future
Responsibilities
- Architecture: Redesign core reporting pipelines to be modular, fault-tolerant, and horizontally scalable. Onboarding a new product? Enable reporting out of the box.
- Execution: Balance rapid iteration with the quality standards required for mission-critical analytics. This system has to fly and land safely — every single time.
- People: Hire smart. Set standards. Give autonomy. Push growth.
- Collaboration: Work tightly with Product and Design — but you own the technical outcomes.
- Utilize billions of events from multiple HL modules (CRM, Calendars, Conversations, Payments, Email/SMS, Calls, Workflows).
- Generate cross-object insights like attribution, revenue forecasting, activity intelligence, and customer behavior patterns.
- Power an AI layer capable of answering natural-language questions using real-time HighLevel data.
- Connect internal and external sources, including GA4, Google Sheets, APIs, and more.
- Enable reporting marketplace, where users and developers can build and publish their own report templates.
- Lead the design of scalable, high-performance systems to improve reliability, latency, and throughput across time-sensitive APIs and workflows.
- Work with technologies like NestJS, Firestore, MongoDB, ClickHouse, ES, Redis, GCP Pub/Sub, Queuing Systems and Service Mesh-based microservices.
- Drive technical direction across both product features and platform layers to ensure stability, scalability, and maintainability.
- Integrate and optimize AI-assisted development tools, improving developer productivity while ensuring accuracy and minimizing hallucinations.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and AI teams to deliver impactful, user-facing features and backend systems.
- Mentor and support other engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, learning, and ownership.
- Proactively identify and solve performance bottlenecks, scalability challenges, and security concerns in a multi-tenant environment.
