Roles & Responsibilities

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager who treats engineering management as a systems problem, not a career milestone.

You’ll lead engineers while staying close to the technical core—owning architecture, modeling decisions, and execution quality in a domain where correctness matters as much as velocity.

Technical & Product Ownership

Build and evolve core platform features

Design and ship APIs, services, and integrations that power billing automation, usage metering, invoicing, revenue recognition, and financial reporting.

Model complex financial workflows

Work deeply on pricing logic, proration, true-ups, multi-currency handling, approval workflows, and event-driven billing pipelines—where small decisions have long-term consequences.

Make architectural trade-offs

Balance “ship it now” against “live with it forever” while scaling systems that process high-volume usage data and real-time financial calculations.

Stay technically fluent

You won’t write code every day, but you’ll review PRs, catch subtle bugs, and guide design discussions with confidence.

Team Leadership & Management

Lead and grow the engineering team

Mentor and manage engineers across experience levels, setting clear expectations and raising the bar on ownership, execution, and quality.

Create high-output systems

Establish clear problem definitions, focused execution cycles, code reviews that actually catch issues, and enough slack for engineers to think—not just ship.

Debug team dynamics like software

Observe signals, form hypotheses, intervene deliberately, and measure outcomes—whether the issue is delivery, alignment, or collaboration.

Build the team intentionally

Design interviews that surface real problem-solving ability, not just pattern matching. At this stage, every hire shifts the average.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with Product, Finance, and Customer Success to translate real-world contract terms into correct, scalable systems

Partner with stakeholders to solve ambiguous problems where requirements evolve and trade-offs are unavoidable

Ensure systems remain accurate, auditable, and compliant as the product scales
