Engineering Manager

The Role

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager who can lead a small, experienced team doing high-ownership work in a regulated environment.

This is not a role for someone who wants to sit above the work. It’s for someone who can help engineers make good decisions, keep teams focused through ambiguity, and stay close enough to the technical work to contribute when it makes sense.

This role supports teams building both customer-facing compliance products and the core platform capabilities that power them.

The work spans data-intensive systems for automated compliance monitoring and control testing, as well as foundational platform services such as tenant management, event and webhook infrastructure, API ingress and egress, and other shared capabilities used across engineering.

The right person for this role can turn ambiguous problems into a clear plan, make practical tradeoffs, and keep teams focused on the work that matters most.

We are not looking for someone who only manages from a distance or relies on generic leadership language. We are looking for someone who has actually led backend or platform teams, improved how they operate, and worked in systems where correctness, reliability, and operational judgment matter.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and develop engineers across multiple backend and platform teams, including coaching, performance feedback, hiring, and day-to-day prioritization

• Turn ambiguous work into a clear execution plan and keep that plan aligned with product, engineering, and business stakeholders

• Partner closely with engineers on architecture and technical tradeoffs across customer-facing products and the shared platform services that support them

• Stay close enough to the technical work to review approaches, unblock decisions, and contribute code when it makes sense

• Support teams building reliable backend and platform systems, including event-driven services, operational workflows, internal tooling, shared infrastructure, and data-intensive applications

• Improve how the team works by tightening scope, raising execution quality, and ensuring engineers have the context they need to move quickly

• Work cross-functionally with product, compliance, and other engineering teams to surface risks early and keep delivery grounded in business needs

• Help the team balance roadmap commitments with platform maintenance, operational responsibilities, and long-term investments in reliability, scalability, and engineering quality
