About HackerRank

At HackerRank, our mission is to change the world to value skills over pedigree. Thousands of companies use our AI-powered platform to hire next-gen developers based on what they can do, not just what’s on their resume. We’ve powered 300M+ code runs and built a global community of 26M+ developers.

We’ve entered a new era of software development where humans and AI build together. This changes everything- from how developers grow to how companies hire and upskill tech talent. We’re embracing this shift head-on and reinventing our products to meet the moment.

We’re a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs; both matter. If you take pride in high-impact work and thrive in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.

At HackerRank, we are on a mission to change the world to value skills over pedigree. We are a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs; both matter. If you take pride in high-impact work and thrive in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.

About the role
The Integrity team safeguards trust in HackerRank’s assessments, ensuring customers can rely on results without worrying about misuse or integrity gaps. With the rise of LLMs and other tools designed to game online evaluations, building robust and scalable integrity solutions has never been more critical.

As Senior Engineering Manager for the Integrity team, you’ll lead the team that ensures every interaction on our platform is fair, secure, and reliable. You won’t just manage systems, you’ll architect the backbone that protects hundreds of thousands of developers and the companies that rely on our data. This role is about shaping high-scale, secure platforms that define the future of our product and set the standard for the industry. In this role, you will also partner with the different product teams in HackerRank to ensure that the integrity solutions are properly integrated into each of the products.

What you’ll do

  • Design and build systems that operate reliably at massive scale, embedding security and integrity into every layer.
  • Own technical strategy from concept to launch, making complex problems solvable and setting standards that guide the organization.
  • Mentor engineers, help them grow into leaders, and cultivate a team proud of the work they deliver.
  • Translate customer needs into robust, elegant solutions in partnership with product and design.
  • Be the technical voice externally, helping customers understand how our solutions ensure the integrity of their hiring process.

Who you are

  • A builder of distributed, enterprise-scale systems with a track record of leading engineering teams to deliver at scale.
  • You excel at hiring, mentoring, and shaping top technical talent into high-performing leaders.
  • Strong communicator, capable of bridging technical vision and business goals.
  • Hands-on experience in Node.js, Go, Ruby, React, Lambda, microservices, and authentication/authorization frameworks lets you influence architecture while staying grounded in execution.

Even better if you have

  • You’ve built platform solutions that span multiple products, creating reusable systems that scale effortlessly.
  • Experience presenting technical designs directly to customers gives you the confidence to influence key decisions. 
  • Have a background in security, fraud prevention, or assessment platforms that allows you to tackle integrity challenges with deep domain insight.

You will thrive in this role if

  • Tackling complex technical challenges at scale excites you more than routine tasks.
  • Owning projects end-to-end from architecture to deployment is your style.
  • Collaboration fuels better outcomes while you set a clear technical vision.
  • You can balance long-term strategy with urgent priorities without losing focus.
  • Making a tangible impact on the product, the team, and the company energizes you.
Technology

We work across a modern, scalable tech stack: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Go, Kafka, Kubernetes, AWS, and Postgres. Our engineering team builds products that directly impact how developers get discovered, evaluated, and hired globally. We're currently building next-gen developer workflows using AI; think intelligent auto-scoring, AI-powered question generation, and adaptive skill insights. We’re also reimagining core experiences across assessments, interviews, and candidate engagement to make hiring faster, fairer, and more human.
