At Sanity.io, we're building the future of AI-powered Content Operations. Our AI Content Operating System gives teams the freedom to model, create, and automate content the way their business works, accelerating digital development and supercharging content operations efficiency. Companies like SKIMS, Figma, Riot Games, Anthropic, COMPLEX, Nordstrom, and Morningbrew are using Sanity to power and automate their content operations.
We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead and grow the SDK team — the team responsible primarily for building and maintaining the App SDK project, our framework of typed React hooks that lets developers build focused, real-time content applications on top of Sanity.
Read more about it here: https://www.sanity.io/app-sdk
The App SDK is how developers extend Sanity beyond the Studio. Your team owns the primitives (useDocuments, useDocument, useEditDocument) along with the tooling underneath them (Groq.js, Typegen, our CLI, and HTTP client), and seamless authentication, permissions, and real-time sync. It's an open-source, MIT-licensed project, so the vast majority of your team's work happens in public.
Leading an engineering team at Sanity means owning strategy, roadmap, and execution alongside your product and design partners. You'll do that by working with excellent people and creating an environment where they can do the best work of their careers.
This is a player-coach role. You'll spend most of your time on people, priorities, and delivery — but you'll stay close enough to the code to review PRs, unblock hard problems, and guide API design.
You'll also join a growing group of engineering managers shaping the culture of our Engineering organization, working closely with Product Designers, Product Managers, Principal Engineers, and technical leaders across the company.
Lead and grow a team of engineers — help them prioritize for impact, grow in their careers, and do the best work of their lives.
Own strategy, roadmap, and execution — work closely with your product and design partners to decide what to build, and make sure it ships.
Set technical direction — guide architecture decisions that balance velocity with maintainability across a large-scale TypeScript codebase, and know when to trade completeness for getting value to developers sooner.
Design APIs developers actually enjoy — plan and ship beautiful, minimal APIs that let internal and external developers solve high-level problems and leave the hard implementation details to us.
Stay hands-on — contribute through technical reviews, pairing, and code where it helps the team most.
Build in the open — run an open-source project well: triage, contribution paths, changelogs, and a community that trusts your releases.
Champion developer experience — automatic type generation, hot reload, one-command deploy. Your team is judged on how fast a developer gets from idea to deployed app.
Measure adoption — SDK adoption, apps deployed, time-to-first-app. You'll know what's working because you're measuring it.
Collaborate across the company — align with engineering leadership, product, design, DevRel, and partnerships on shared goals.
Based in San Francisco/Bay Area or remote in the United States.
3+ years of engineering leadership experience, including 5+ years as a software engineer.
Deep experience with TypeScript and React — state management, hooks, module systems and bundling, and core browser concepts. Experience with Go, Vite, or Zustand is a plus.
You've built libraries, SDKs, or developer tools that other engineers depend on, and you understand the difference between shipping an application and shipping a toolkit other people build on.
Experience working at a product or SaaS company as a engineering manager or senior engineer.
Experience working closely with product managers and designers to deliver for both technical and non-technical users.
Comfortable working with remote and distributed teams.
You communicate technical designs clearly and concisely, in writing and out loud.
Pragmatic. You care about getting it right, and you care more about not blocking the people who depend on you.
You care about the people you work with and have real empathy for the developers using what your team builds.
You've maintained a meaningful open-source project and have opinions about what makes a good one.
Experience with API or SDK design at a developer platform company.
A strong point of view on how AI-assisted development changes what a good SDK looks like.
Experience with automated browser testing and Node.js.
Startup experience.

The job is in San Francisco, CA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.
How San Francisco compares. Among the 145 largest places in California, San Francisco is #4 by population, #139 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #20 for remote work (#1 = most), #25 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, San Francisco County, is #3 of 58 counties for average pay ($174,103).
San Francisco has 830,235 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 2.1% of the population of California. It covers 47 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 17,784 people per square mile. The median age is 40.0, 6% older than the state median (40.0 against 37.9).
The median gross rent is $2,476 a month (rent plus utilities), 22% above the state median ($2,476 against $2,036). Over a year that is 21.1% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $1,394,500, which is 9.9 times the median household income ($140,970); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 38.2% of households own their home, 32% below the state average (38.2% against 55.9%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.
The San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA metropolitan area has 2,373,920 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $74,260 a year, 46% above the national median ($74,260 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (226,320 jobs, median $62,120); management (223,100 jobs, median $176,340); business and financial operations (207,030 jobs, median $112,960). The area is most specialised in computer and mathematical (1.9 times) and life, physical, and social science (1.8 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($176,340) and computer and mathematical ($167,770). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of San Francisco County was 4.0%. 69.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in San Francisco County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 28.6% drive alone, 18.7% use public transit, 9.3% walk, 31.0% work from home. 21.6% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 11% above the state average (21.6% against 19.4%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
60.3% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 63% above the state share (60.3% against 37.1%). 34.0% of residents were born outside the United States, 26% above the state share (34.0% against 27.0%). The poverty rate is 11.2%, 7% below the state rate (11.2% against 12.0%).
The warmest month is Sep, averaging 59°F (14.9°C), and the coolest is Apr at 53°F (11.6°C). About 515 mm (20 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Dec is the wettest month (112 mm) and Jul the driest (2 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
Closest cities in this guide: Daly City (31 miles, rent 3% higher); Pacifica (31 miles, rent 25% higher); San Bruno (34 miles, rent 12% higher); Millbrae (36 miles, rent 32% higher). Rent differences are against San Francisco; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
