The alt SOC 15-2051 reflects the deep applied ML/AI domain expertise required.
The title 'Engineering Manager' carries no explicit seniority level word, so the title states no level. However, the scope — managing managers, owning org-wide AI/ML infrastructure across all Robinhood product lines, partnering with executive leaders — supports a Principal-level band.
