About the role

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead high-performing engineering teams building critical products, platform integrations, and scalable financial systems at Brigit. You will mentor engineers, define roadmaps with cross-functional partners, drive technical execution, and foster an inclusive, high-performing engineering culture.

Responsibilities

  • Lead, empower, and grow a diverse team of software engineers across varying seniority levels through regular 1:1s, actionable feedback, and structured career planning.
  • Partner closely with Product, Design, Data, and Business counterparts to define product roadmaps, scope technical initiatives, and balance business priorities with engineering speed.
  • Drive technical execution across sprint planning, capacity allocation, and architectural oversight to ensure timely, reliable delivery.
  • Guide architectural decisions and evaluate technical design docs for complex systems, ensuring high standards for security, testability, monitoring, and scale.
  • Foster a culture of technical excellence and continuous improvement, supporting both complex platform scaling and fast-paced 0-to-1 product builds.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of total software engineering experience, including 3+ years directly managing and mentoring engineering teams in high-growth environments.
  • Proven track record of building, shipping, and maintaining complex backend or platform architectures over multiple release cycles.
  • Experience leading teams through technical ambiguity, including leading greenfield (0-to-1) product builds or core platform transformations.
  • Strong cross-functional leadership skills with experience regularly collaborating with product managers, design leads, and business stakeholders.
  • Passion for fostering an inclusive, high-performing engineering culture.
  • Tech Stack: Java on backend in GCP and React Native on mobile frontend; strong engineering leadership fundamentals and architectural judgement matter most.
