Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. About the Role We're hiring a hands-on Engineering Manager to build and lead Replit's Anti-Abuse team from the ground up. This is a foundational 0-to-1 role: you'll define the anti-abuse roadmap, hire a small team of engineers and data analysts, and ship the systems that protect Replit's platform, users, and economics from adversarial actors. You'll partner across Support, Legal, Security, Infrastructure, and the Money and Growth teams to make abuse economically unviable while keeping friction low for legitimate users. Replit sits at the frontier of AI-native abuse. Our platform is a target for phishing and scam hosting, cryptomining, LLM token farming, card and coupon fraud, and increasingly, abuse driven by AI agents themselves. The team you build will define how Replit defends against all of it. What You'll Do Build the anti-abuse roadmap from scratch : Define the threat model, prioritize across abuse vectors (phishing/scam hosting, cryptomining, token farming, payment fraud, AI agent exploitation), and translate it into a shipping plan with clear sequencing and tradeoffs. Design progressive verification and identity infrastructure : Build the "ladder of trust" that gates increasing platform capabilities (referrals, additional credits, access to powerful agent features, Missions) behind escalating verification. This includes a humanity/identity layer that's distinct from user accounts, integrations with KYC-grade verification providers, and the policy engine that decides what level of trust unlocks what behavior. This infrastructure is core not just to promo integrity but to how Replit safely expands agent capabilities over time. Ship as a hands-on EM : Stay in the code. Use the latest AI coding tools (including Rep

Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. About the Team Product Platform builds and owns the shared foundations the rest of Replit is built on, spanning the full stack so every other team can ship features safely and quickly. Identity & Authorization defines how people, agents, sandboxes, and services prove who they are and what they can do. These systems protect critical product and service interactions across Replit's web product, Agent, enterprise controls, and internal services. Our work is high-leverage and horizontal: when identity and policy are clear, reliable, and easy to adopt, every other team can move faster without rebuilding security controls. We are a small, collaborative team that values curiosity and clear thinking over pedigree, and we work in the open by bringing each other the problem rather than just the request. We care more about how you reason and build than the route you took to get here. About the Role As a Software Engineer , you will design, build, and operate the identity and authorization systems that protect critical interactions on Replit, including Agent acting on behalf of a user or holding their own identity. The work is guided by a few simple questions: Can every protected request prove which workload made it, which principal it represents, and who is acting on that principal's behalf? Can product teams express policy once and trust the same decision across web, mobile, Agent, and internal services? Can enterprise administrators control who can access each workspace, app, connector, and Agent capability without navigating a permission maze as well as having a legible ledger of decisions? Can Agent act for a user across long-running and durable work without receiving broad or long-lived credentials? Are identity and auth

With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. About the role This is a zero-to-one Product Engineering role on Replit's Money team. You'll bring our financial partnerships alive from scoping to integrating and operating them so that the builders on Replit, and the Apps and Agents they ship can transact reliably anywhere in the world. Money at Replit isn’t traditional payments. Builders are publishing apps that earn revenue. Agents are spending and being paid for work. New protocols for agentic commerce now exist to power the future of commerce: Shared Payment Tokens, the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP), the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP). Replit is one of the platforms that will define what they look like in practice and lower the barrier to entry. To make any of that real, we need someone who can sit between Replit engineering and our financial partners including billing platforms, payment processors, agentic-commerce protocol partners, tax and compliance vendors to turn signed contracts into live, reliable integrations. You'll be the engineer partners ask for, and the engineer the rest of Replit relies on when a new monetization surface needs to ship. This role is a fit if you like writing code and you also like being in the room when a partnership is being scoped, because you know that the design decisions made in that room are the ones that bind the integration for years. You will Take financial partnerships from zero-to-one: scope the integration with the partner, pressure-test data and protocol specs, design the system, build it, ship it, and operate it. Own the technical relationship with Replit's financial partners across the full lifecycle: billing platforms, payment processors, agentic-commerce protocol partners, t

Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. About this role: Accelerate engineering velocity and reduce friction in the Replit development experience by stewarding our codebases, tooling, and developer workflows. You will directly impact every engineer who ships code at Replit. By focusing on developer experience, you will act as a force multiplier across all product development teams, enabling faster feature delivery, happier developers, and reduced operational overhead. The role combines the technical depth needed to navigate a complex, polyglot codebase with the product mindset to understand how infrastructure decisions impact developer productivity and ultimately customer value delivery. You will also partner closely with the AI team on our internal AI platform — which already generates more than 60% of all merged PRs at Replit — to improve the Agent's output and help shape strategy around the Agent's default stack.

About the Role We're looking for an AI-native product growth lead to own Replit's entire paid acquisition and lifecycle marketing engine as the single DRI. This is an IC role for someone who builds systems, not just campaigns. Someone who uses AI and automation aggressively to do what traditionally requires an entire team. You don't need an engineering background. You need the instinct to build: when you see a repetitive task, you reach for Replit or an API before you reach for a spreadsheet. You'll have data science and data engineering partners for infrastructure and modeling, and brand marketing will set creative direction. Your job is to turn that direction into a closed-loop optimization system: a self-improving system that turns performance data into better creative, optimizes spend across channels in near-real-time, and compounds every insight so nothing learned is ever lost. Each cycle, the system gets smarter. That's the engine you'll build and own. The ideal candidate has deep channel expertise across paid search, paid social, and lifecycle, but their real edge is building AI-powered workflows that scale creative production, automate measurement, and compound institutional knowledge.
