Manager, Network and Infrastructure Reliability

About the job

Join us in bringing joy to customer experience. Five9 is a leading provider of cloud contact center software, bringing the power of cloud innovation to customers worldwide.

Living our values everyday results in our team-first culture and enables us to innovate, grow, and thrive while enjoying the journey together. We celebrate diversity and foster an inclusive environment, empowering our employees to be their authentic selves.

Five9 is rebuilding the operational leadership for its Network & Infrastructure team and needs a hands-on, senior technical manager to take direct ownership of the environment and the team executing the work.

The right candidate will have directly managed production networks at scale, led teams of engineers who build and maintain those systems, and successfully transitioned frontline operations from manual "click-ops" into automated, code-driven execution. If you have not personally managed engineering teams through this specific transition, this is not the right role.

Modernization is already underway, but the current engineering team is short-handed and lacks several critical skills. The person stepping into this role must stabilize daily operations quickly, assess the existing talent, and immediately begin rebuilding both the team and the operating workflows against clear, sprint-level, and measurable milestones.
