What We Build WithOur backend services are primarily written in Go. Our frontend is React with TypeScript. We run on Google Cloud Platform and commonly work with Postgres, Redis, Pub/Sub, Kubernetes, Cloud Run, Terraform, and OpenAPI-based service contracts.
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
What You'll Bring- 8+ years of professional experience as a software engineer
- 3+ years of experience directly managing engineers, including coaching, performance feedback, and hiring involvement
- Experience leading backend or platform teams working on systems with real operational complexity
- Strong proficiency in Go, with hands-on experience building and maintaining production systems
- Enough technical depth to contribute to architecture discussions, challenge assumptions, and jump into the code when useful
- Experience navigating ambiguous problems and turning them into clear plans, priorities, and tradeoffs
- Good judgment around scope, sequencing, and risk, especially when work spans multiple stakeholders or competing demands
- A track record of being accountable for team output, not just individual contribution
- Experience in fintech, banking, infrastructure, developer tooling, or other regulated systems is strongly preferred
- Comfort working in environments where reliability, compliance, auditability, and operational risk matter
