As Engineering Manager for Agentic Apps at Robinhood, you will lead the team building the agent platform behind every AI agent at Robinhood. You'll guide engineers in leveraging Large Language Models to create scalable products that act on behalf of Robinhood's customers and employees in a regulated financial environment. This role requires a visionary leader with a strong software engineering background, platform expertise, and deep knowledge of applied ML at scale, partnering closely with Legal, Compliance, and Security.

What you'll do

  • Build and lead the team behind Robinhood's agentic applications: hire and grow strong engineers, own the roadmap and delivery bar for agents that act for millions of customers and internally for employees.
  • Set technical direction on agent orchestration, tool integration, evals, and permissioning for consequential actions, with depth to change a design, not only approve it.
  • Make agents trustworthy enough to act in a regulated brokerage: build eval-gated releases, guardrails and approval flows for money-moving actions, and audit trails alongside Legal, Compliance, and Security.
  • Own production reliability for nondeterministic systems running on third-party model providers: define SLOs, fallbacks, and drive incidents through to fixed root causes.
  • Define and track the metrics that matter (task completion, quality, latency, cost per task) and report progress to leadership.

What you bring

  • 10+ years managing software engineers, with a record of hiring well, growing people, and shipping products used at scale.
  • Hands-on depth in LLM systems: you've shipped tool-calling agents to production and can critique an architecture or eval plan yourself.
  • Experience running consumer-scale production services with SLOs, on-call rotations, and dependencies you don't control.
  • Judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving spaces: you turn conflicting input into a focused roadmap with measurable goals and cut scope to hit them.
  • Direct, clear communication with engineers, product, and executives; you write well and earn trust across functions.

What we offer

  • Base pay for Zone 1 (Menlo Park, CA; New York, NY; Bellevue, WA; Washington, DC): $255,000-$300,000 USD; Zone 2 (Denver, CO; Westlake, TX; Chicago, IL) and Zone 3 (Lake Mary, FL; Clearwater, FL; Gainesville, FL) compensation discussed during interview process.
  • Bonus opportunities and equity.
  • 100% paid health insurance for employees with 90% coverage for dependents.
  • Access to the Robinhood Employee Fund, allowing eligible US employees to invest in a private employee fund with exposure to Robinhood Ventures funds.
  • Access to top-tier AI tools and continuous AI skill-building for every employee.
  • Lifestyle wallet: a flexible benefits spending account for wellness, learning, and more.
  • Employer-paid life and disability insurance, fertility benefits, and mental health benefits.
  • Time off including company holidays, paid time off, sick time, parental leave, and more.
  • 401(k) matching.
  • Exceptional office experience with catered meals, events, and comfortable workspaces.
