from this employer's Department of Labor filings
Green-card filing pattern in this occupation
Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 11 green-card filings in this occupation, 91% were for a worker who already held the job.
Files H-1B transfers
35 transfer filings in the last year, covering 35 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

About the role
- With 100,000+ active communities and approximately 130 million daily active unique visitors, Reddit is one of the internet's largest sources of information.
Responsibilities
- You will own and drive programs across the full breadth of Reddit's infrastructure stack, spanning Compute, Storage, Messaging, Transport, Core Platform, Ranking Platform, Security, and Compliance.
- You will partner deeply with engineering teams as a technical peer, not from the stratosphere, but in the details, bringing programs to completion, balancing risk across frontend, backend, and revenue-producing teams, and ensuring execution stays aligned to Reddit's long-term infrastructure strategy.
- Get Things Done. More than just displaying activity, counting sprint points, or delivering regular updates. You actually bring programs to completion and deliver real accomplishments for the business, and help your teams understand the difference.
- You create and improve processes that smooth the path for others and prevent and remove recurring organizational toil (and the lower quality bar that often allows).
- Experience working with observability and data platforms (Grafana, BigQuery, Hex, Looker, or similar) to build cost reporting and alerting.
- Pragmatic. You take an iterative approach to developing processes and systems
- Family Planning Support
Requirements
- 8+ years of collective experience in engineering and program management roles.
- You are comfortable discussing Kubernetes orchestration, storage engines, messaging systems (Kafka), ML serving infrastructure, deployment pipelines, CDN and traffic management, and data platform architectures.
- You can credibly challenge technical plans and identify risks that engineering teams may overlook.
- You have experience with infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD systems, observability platforms, and container orchestration is highly valued.
- You have a proven track record driving large-scale migrations and deprecations in cloud infrastructure environments.
- You can present cost narratives to Finance leadership and engineering directors+ with equal confidence.
- Demonstrated experience leveraging AI/LLM tooling to improve program management workflows, automate reporting, or enhance engineering productivity.
