Purpose of Position

In the Billing & Payments Tribe, we design the experiences that define how our customers pay—and how our partners get paid. As we scale, we're creating a new engineering team and are looking for an Engineering Manager to shape it from the ground up.

This role is ideal for an experienced people leader who thrives in complex domains, values strong feedback loops, and enjoys building autonomous, high-performing teams with real ownership and impact.

• Foster strong feedback loops that support continuous learning and improvement
• Create a safe, empowering environment where decisions are delegated and ownership is clear
• Partner closely with Product Management to define team goals, priorities, and OKRs
• Own delivery commitments and continuously improve team effectiveness and predictability
• Collaborate with other tribes, platform teams, and enabling teams (Product, Dev Ops, UX, Info Sec, etc.)
• Support hiring, onboarding, performance reviews, and individual development planning
• Represent your team toward stakeholders and contribute to engineering-wide strategy

• 8+ years experience in software engineering
• 2+ years in an Engineering Manager or similar leadership role (Technical Leads transitioning into management are welcome)

• A solid technical foundation that allows you to:
  • Understand and discuss architecture and system design
  • Guide teams on testing, CI/CD, and engineering best practices
  • Consider long-term technical strategy, trade-offs, and system interactions
• A data-informed approach to decision-making, with a bias toward observability and learning
• A proactive mindset toward AI and emerging technologies, with the curiosity and willingness to experiment, learn, and leverage them to drive team efficiency and innovation
