Multiverse is the upskilling platform for AI and Tech adoption.
We have partnered with 1,500+ companies to deliver a new kind of learning that's transforming today’s workforce.
Our upskilling apprenticeships are designed for people of any age and career stage to build critical AI, data, and tech skills. Our learners have driven $2bn+ ROI for their employers, using the skills they’ve learned to improve productivity and measurable performance.
In June 2022, we announced a $220 million Series D funding round co-led by StepStone Group, Lightspeed Venture Partners and General Catalyst. With a post-money valuation of $1.7bn, the round makes us the UK’s first EdTech unicorn.
But we aren’t stopping there. With a strong operational footprint and 800+ employees, we have ambitious plans to continue scaling. We’re building a world where tech skills unlock people’s potential and output.
Join Multiverse and power our mission to equip the workforce to win in the AI era.
You won’t just manage a roadmap here; you will shape the engine of our scale. As an Engineering Manager, you will lead a cross-functional squad to solve complex problems in the AI & Upskilling market, directly impacting how the world learns critical new skills.
You will thrive here if you see inclusive teams as the most creative ones. We are looking for leaders who can build high-trust environments where diverse perspectives fuel innovation and problem-solving. You will leverage AI-powered tools and lean methodologies to empower your team to move fast - sustainably delivering exceptional quality and customer delight without compromising on craft.
We have three core Groups. Depending on your strengths and interests, you could lead within:
Learning Product Group: Mission meets market. You will own the full learner journey from application to graduation. You’ll build seamless experiences that prove the ROI of programmes to the world’s biggest employers.
Product Fundamentals Group: The connective tissue. You will build the shared capabilities that power our ecosystem - from our LMS and our AI guide (Atlas) to the live video sessions where coaching happens and more.
Foundations Group: Scale and velocity. You will build the "paved road" for our internal tech organisation. You’ll focus on Developer Experience (DevEx), infrastructure, and core services that enable us to reach our ambitious growth goals.
Multiverse is evolving. We are looking for a builder who can navigate ambiguity with empathy.
Team Evolution: You will move beyond just "filling seats." You will hire diverse talent and onboard them into a culture of psychological safety, helping the team transition into a high-performing state.
Delivery & Quality: You will balance shipping fast with paying down technical debt, ensuring your team delivers value consistently without burning out.
Cultural Leadership: You will become a voice in our engineering leadership community, advocating for best practices and helping us mature our processes.
People (Coach & Sponsor): You are responsible for the health and happiness of your team. You will run performance reviews, but more importantly, you will act as a career coach, identifying opportunities for promotion and sponsorship for engineers of all backgrounds.
Processes (Enable & Unblock): You will foster an agile environment that prioritises learning over perfection. You will protect your team’s focus time, ensuring a balance between speed of delivery and engineering excellence.
Projects (Strategy & Insight): You will partner with Product and Design to identify user behaviours and translate business goals into technical execution.
TypeScript is our primary language of choice for both frontend development (with ReactJS) and on the backend, running inside containers.
We also have a fair few older services written in either Python or Elixir on the backend. We manage all our infrastructure using Terraform and mostly host on AWS.
You’ll find tools like GitHub, CircleCI, Datadog, and Backstage as daily drivers for our engineers.
We also make heavy usage of Cursor and other AI-powered tools to accelerate our ability to deliver outcomes.
The Squad: You will lead 4-6 Engineers and partner closely with a dedicated Product Manager and Product Designer. You also have access to shared User Researchers. Some of our Engineering managers manage more than one team (up to 2 typically)
Your Support System: You report to an Engineering Director who is invested in your growth. You are not an island; you are part of a supportive group of EMs who collaborate regularly.
Autonomy vs. Alignment: We reject micro-management. We provide the strategic objectives, but you and your team define how to get there.
Our Vibe: We value kindness, candour, and curiosity. We prioritise a culture of support, facilitation, and deep care over hierarchy.

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We’re an equal opportunities employer. And proud of it. Every applicant and employee is afforded the same opportunities regardless of race, colour, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender, gender identity or expression, or veteran status. This will never change. Read our Equality, Diversity & Inclusion policy here.
Our Commitment to Safeguarding
Multiverse is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our learners. We expect all employees to share this commitment and adhere to our Safeguarding Policy, our Prevent Policy and all other Multiverse company policies. Successful applicants will be required to undertake at least a Basic check via the Disclosure Barring Service (DBS).
For roles that will involve a Regulated Activity, successful applicants must also undergo an Enhanced DBS check, including a Children’s Barred List check and a Prohibition Order check. Roles involving Regulated Activity may interact with vulnerable groups, therefore are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 meaning applicants are required to declare any convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.
Providing false information is an offence and could result in the application being rejected or summary dismissal if the applicant has been selected, and possible referral to the police and the DBS.
