About the Role

We are seeking an Engineering Manager to lead and support our Payroll Integrations engineering team during a period of rapid growth. This role is focused on developing engineers, improving team effectiveness, and building the structure needed to support a growing engineering organization.

Your day-to-day work blends people leadership with project guidance — running 1:1s, removing obstacles, and ensuring your team has the clarity and support needed to deliver.

· Help engineers plan and execute complex projects

· Improve team workflows and engineering processes

· Remove obstacles and ensure teams are focused on the highest-impact work

· Collaborate with engineering leaders, product managers, and cross-functional partners

Qualifications

· Experience mentoring or managing engineers (team lead, tech lead, or engineering manager)

· Experience working in startup or small-company environments

· Strong interest in people leadership and team development

· Technical background with familiarity in AWS, JavaScript, or TypeScript preferred

· You will manage 8–10 direct reports
