Become a Part of the NIKE, Inc. Team
NIKE, Inc. does more than outfit the world's best athletes. It's a place where passionate individuals come together to create the future of sport. We are unapologetic about who we are and what we're after - bringing innovation and inspiration to every athlete* in the world. We look for athletes who can push boundaries, elevate our potential and continue leading us to greatness.
WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH
The Athlete Data Platform team builds the services, schemas, and data systems that give every Nike athlete a single, consent-aware record of who they are and what they're training for - and the intelligence layer that reads from it to power personalization across Nike Run Club (NRC), Nike Training Club (NTC), and the sport-science research surfaces behind them. As the Engineering Manager, you'll lead a full-stack squad spanning backend services, mobile SDK integration, and the data pipelines that keep the athlete record trustworthy end-to-end. You'll report to the Director of Engineering and partner daily with Principal and Lead Engineers, Sport Science, Data Science, Product, Design, the NRC and NTC app team, Privacy and InfoSec, and the Platform Engineering teams your services depend on.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Nike is seeking an AI-Native Engineering Manager who leads full-stack delivery and can demonstrate - with concrete, recent examples - how state-of-the-art AI tools, agentic workflows, and spec-driven practices have accelerated the work of the teams they've led. You'll run the team that owns the per-athlete record and the intelligence layer that reads from it - a foundation other teams build on - and you'll be measured on how fast your team turns that foundation into shipped value. The ideal candidate has shipped platform services at consumer scale, has clear opinions on composable architecture and build-vs-buy, and can walk a hiring panel through the specific tools, loops, and metrics they use to compress weeks of work into days.

WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON
You'll lead the engineering team behind the Athlete Data Platform - the record, the intelligence layer, and the pipelines that keep both trustworthy - and you'll be measured on how reliably that foundation unlocks the surfaces that depend on it. Your team's work is what makes the athlete-facing apps feel like they know the athlete: the plan that adapts actually adapts, the race recommendation is actually right, and the data NRC wrote is the data NTC reads.
