We are seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead two or more engineering teams responsible for a high-performance trading platform used by tens of thousands of traders every day. This role combines people leadership, strategic planning, and operational ownership in a fast-paced environment where priorities evolve with customer and business needs. You will empower engineers to grow, build strong teams, and create an environment of accountability and psychological safety. You will also guide technical direction and ensure the systems your teams own remain reliable, resilient, and performant. With significant autonomy, you will collaborate closely with Product and business stakeholders while helping shape the future of a real-time trading experience.

  • Take ownership of your teams' areas, proactively identifying problems, making decisions, and driving improvements without waiting for direction.

  • Lead, coach, and develop engineers across experience levels, supporting career growth, addressing performance concerns early, and maintaining high engineering standards.

  • Partner with Product and business stakeholders to prioritize work, adapt plans as needs change, and maintain consistent delivery.

  • Ensure the availability, performance, quality, and resilience of production systems, including accountability for on-call operations and incident response.

  • Establish hiring standards, participate in interviews, and plan team capacity in collaboration with other Engineering Managers.

  • Communicate progress, risks, dependencies, and trade-offs clearly and proactively to leadership.

  • Encourage open, constructive discussion and challenge decisions when appropriate, fostering a culture of transparency, trust, and psychological safety.
