Senior, Engineering Manager
"What You'll Be Doing"
About This Role
This is a player-coach role, not a hands-off management position. You'll be shipping real work on critical payment paths while building and leading the team, and you'll own the team's deliverables—when something is late, broken, or unclear, it's yours to drive to done.
What You'll Be Doing
Write, review, and ship production code on critical payment paths
Debug production incidents, reliability gaps, and performance and correctness issues
Set technical direction and make the architecture calls that matter
Raise the engineering bar through code review, standards, and example
Own delivery — break work down, sequence it, and make sure it lands
Mentor every engineer on the team, from senior to junior, developing people rather than just directing them
Manage and grow engineers through 1:1s, feedback, performance conversations, hiring, and the occasional hard conversation
Own the process — clear requirements before work hits engineering, a defined owner (DRI) per project, and a feedback loop that catches problems early
Serve as the point of accountability for the team's output to the founders
Report to the CTO on personnel matters — performance, team health, and people decisions run through you and surface to the CTO directly
What We're Looking For
A senior engineering leader who is still a strong, current individual contributor — able to hold your own in the codebase, not just review it
A track record of owning delivery for a team: shipping real product, on a real cadence, with real accountability
Experience building process without bureaucracy — you know the difference between rigor and overhead
Comfort with our stack: TypeScript/Node (Express, React), MongoDB, ClickHouse, Redis/queues
A high bar for reliability, security, and correctness, including experience operating where mistakes cost money
Direct communication skills — you write things down and don't hide bad news
Bonus Points
Payments experience (acquiring, card networks, ACH, chargebacks, PCI)
Stablecoin or blockchain infrastructure experience (Solana programs, EVM smart contracts, on-chain settlement)
Experience working in a regulated, compliance-forward environment
Early-stage startup experience
Why Join Us
Competitive compensation including base salary, performance bonus, and meaningful ownership
Opportunity to own engineering delivery and team leadership at a rapidly scaling fintech company
Collaborative and innovative work environment with world-class investors
Direct impact on core product and company trajectory during a hyper growth phase
Base salary range of $220,000–$275,000 USD, with actual offers depending on experience, education, skills, qualifications, and business needs
Eligibility for an equity grant, plus access to health and wellness benefits, a 401(k) savings plan, and flexible time off
