Now Brewing – Engineering Leaders! #tobeapartner


From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company. One that not only celebrated coffee and its rich tradition, but that also brought a feeling of connection. We are known for developing extraordinary leaders who share this passion and are guided by their service to others.
As a Manager, Engineering, you will lead a team responsible for delivering reliable, secure, and scalable technology solutions that support Starbucks engineering teams.

  • Automate and scale – Identify opportunities to automate processes and improve efficiency, scalability, and reliability
  • Lead and develop a high-performing team – Coach and manage engineers, driving engagement, growth, and strong team performance
  • Collaborate across teams and vendors – Build strong cross-functional partnerships and manage external partners to achieve business outcomes

We’d love to hear from people with:
