For over 20 years, Smartsheet has helped people and teams achieve–well, anything. From seamless work management to smart, scalable solutions, we’ve always worked with flow. We’re building tools that empower teams to automate the manual, uncover insights, and scale smarter. But more than that, we’re creating space– space to think big, take action, and unlock the kind of work that truly matters. Because when challenge meets purpose, and passion turns into progress, that’s magic at work, and it’s what we show up for everyday.
Corporate Systems Engineering builds and operates the software platforms, integrations, and automations that power Smartsheet’s core business functions across Finance, Sales/GTM, and People & Culture. Our team owns mission-critical systems and workflows that enable how the company hires, sells, bills, pays, reports, and scales. We operate at the intersection of software engineering, enterprise platforms, and business-critical data, treating internal systems with the same rigor, reliability, and product mindset as customer-facing software.
The AI & Automation team is our frontier - we're building the next generation of how employees interact with enterprise systems using agentic AI, large language models, and cloud-native automation. This isn't traditional IT. This is product-minded engineering applied to internal tools, with the mandate to fundamentally change how our employees work.
As a Senior Manager, Engineering (AI & Automation), you will lead a team of engineers focused on shipping AI-powered capabilities to employees on a rapid, iterative cadence. This is a hands-on, tech-leaning leadership role where the primary measure of success is delivery velocity — how quickly and effectively your team puts Claude, AWS Bedrock, and other AI tools into the hands of employees to make them measurably more efficient. You will partner closely with Product Management to own the automation roadmap and with Architecture and Data teams to shape our internal AI infrastructure.
This full-time position reports to the Sr. Director, Development and can be located in our Bellevue, WA office, or you may work remotely from anywhere in the US where Smartsheet is a registered employer.
