The Opportunity

We’re making it easy for all of the developers on Earth to get started with public APIs in seconds.

The Postman API Network is the world’s largest repository of APIs, with tens of thousands of APIs to check the weather, look up sports scores, book events, plan travel, send payments, and more. As developers, we know there’s no better feeling than seeing your code work, especially when you’re integrating with someone else’s API. 

As the Senior Engineering Manager, you’ll oversee the development, execution, and launch of all features that make it easier for developers to use public APIs. You’ll lead teams of talented developers, managers, and work with other senior leaders to help grow the network to 100M active users. 

This is a hybrid position based in Bangalore. As a standalone business with Postman, we build fast, learn while doing it, and most importantly, have fun!
