About Upstart
At Upstart, we’re united by a mission that matters: to radically reduce the cost and complexity of borrowing for all Americans. Every day, we bring creativity, experimentation, and advanced AI to reshape access to credit, helping millions move forward financially with clarity and confidence.
As the leading AI lending marketplace, we partner with banks and credit unions to expand access to affordable credit through technology that’s both radically intelligent and deeply human. Our platform runs over one million predictions per borrower using more than 1,800 signals, powering smarter, fairer decisions for millions of customers. But the numbers only hint at the impact. Every idea, every voice, and every contribution moves us closer to a world where credit never stands between people and their financial progress.
We’re proudly digital-first, giving most Upstarters the flexibility to do their best work from wherever they thrive, alongside teammates across 80+ cities in the US and Canada. Digital-first doesn’t mean distant. We’re intentional about in-person connection through team onsites, planning sessions, and moments that spark creativity and trust. And whether you choose to work primarily from home or collaborate in-person from one of our offices in Columbus, Austin, the Bay Area, or New York City (opening Summer 2026), you’ll have the support to work in the way that works best for you.
If you’re energized by tackling meaningful problems, excited to innovate with purpose, and motivated by work that truly matters, we’d love to hear from you. The Team:
The Delivery team enables engineers at Upstart to ship software to production safely, quickly, and predictably. The team owns the systems and workflows that take deployable software artifacts through release and into production, including deployment infrastructure, progressive delivery capabilities, and the modernization of delivery workflows for Upstart’s monolith and distributed services.
Our goal is to make production deployment routine, self-service, and driven by trusted system signals rather than manual coordination or approval. We are building a model where engineers can release changes confidently, understand deployment health in real time, and recover quickly when production signals indicate a problem.
The team partners closely with Developer Platform, Cloud Platform, SRE, Security, and product engineering. Developer Platform owns how software is built and validated, while Delivery owns how that software is released and promoted into production. This boundary aligns the posting to the new organizational model, where CI/CD build responsibilities move out of Delivery and deployment remains within the Delivery charter.
The Role:
As the Senior Engineering Manager of the Delivery team , you will lead a team responsible for improving how software is deployed and released across Upstart. You will own the strategy and execution for deployment infrastructure, progressive delivery, production promotion, rollback, and the delivery capabilities supporting both modern services and Upstart’s monolith.
Your focus will be making production releases safer, faster, and more predictable. You will reduce manual intervention, standardize deployment patterns, improve release visibility, and build automated safeguards that allow engineering teams to deploy independently without sacrificing customer or system safety.
This role is suited for a technically strong, execution-oriented leader who understands deployment systems, production operations, and large-scale platform transitions. You will balance the immediate needs of critical release infrastructure with longer-term modernization that makes deployment a low-friction and dependable part of engineering at Upstart.
