Engineering Manager

Role overview Lead a small, experienced engineering team responsible for planning, delivery, reliability, and growth. This is a player-coach role: you will manage and develop senior and staff engineers while maintaining enough technical depth to review designs and guide decisions across backend, web, mobile, and machine learning systems. You will partner with product leadership on priorities and remain accountable for secure operations of an enterprise-facing platform.

Responsibilities - Coach engineers through regular feedback, career development, performance decisions, and stretch opportunities. - Own planning and delivery, set clear scope, communicate tradeoffs, remove blockers, and account for outcomes. - Lead reliability, on-call, and incident response; ensure postmortems lead to operational improvements. - Build security and compliance practices, including secure development and customer commitments, into routine engineering work. - Partner with product and design to sequence roadmap work, and represent engineering in customer and executive discussions. - Lead hiring and interview design, shape team structure, and set standards for code review, testing, deployment, documentation, and responsible use of AI tools.

Requirements - At least 3 years managing software engineers, including senior or staff-level individual contributors, with a record of shipping production systems. - Strong background building and operating backend or distributed systems, with the ability to contribute credibly to design reviews. - Experience owning team planning, prioritization, delivery, and accountability for results. - Experience operating production systems with on-call and incident response responsibilities. - Demonstrated hiring experience, including developing an interview process. - Comfort with startup conditions, changing priorities, and ambiguity, plus strong written communication for a remote team. - Authorization to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship.

Nice to have - Background in security, identity, fraud, or infrastructure-focused business software. - Experience with Go, AWS, and service-based architecture; scaling an engineering organization; or leading engineering work under SOC 2 or similar controls. - A considered approach to how AI coding tools affect engineering quality and team practices.
