We're hiring our first dedicated Engineering Manager to help lead our engineering teams in SF. You'll manage and grow a team of engineers while staying close enough to the code and the system design to earn the trust of the people you lead. We're not looking for someone who manages from a distance — we're looking for someone who's done the work, still wants to be in the details when it matters, and gets energy from making other engineers better.
What you might work on
Data platform: Lead the team building the ingestion, transformation, and lineage infrastructure that gives accountants traceable, source-connected access to their financial data at any level of detail.
Reporting engine: Own delivery of the experience for flexibly defining, composing, and drilling into structured financial reports, from high-level projections down to individual transactions.
Accounting automation: Guide the team developing the core engine that brings structure to messy financial data, automating large swaths of manual work and turning accountants into engineers.
Workflow, AI, and user experience: Lead a team building complex, cyclical accounting workflows with dependency management, automation, and AI-native experiences — all wrapped in a product we take pride in making delightful to use.
You might be a fit if...
You've managed engineers before and you genuinely enjoy it. You take pride in developing people, building trust on teams, and making hard calls on people and priorities.
You still want to be technical. You can go deep on system design, review code and architecture decisions, and earn credibility with your team by being a good collaborator.
You find learning a new, complex domain to be an exciting challenge
You combine a commitment to high quality work with a desire to win and tackle ambitious goals
You want to help build the management function here: process, rituals, and bar-setting. You can balance scaling with pragmatism about the right amount of process for the stage of growth.

A track record in hiring
This role is hybrid in San Francisco, in-office first.
We believe the best company is the one with the best ICs, and we've built a culture to maximize great work — as an EM here, your job is to protect and amplify that, not manage around it. We believe great product & engineering come from a desire to win, a deep care for the craft, and a pragmatism in shipping for overall impact.
We strongly believe we will only be successful if everyone on the team — managers included — is anchored in our core principles:
Own the Outcome: We own our results. We typically hire builders and give them large mandates with high trust. As a manager, you're responsible not just for your team's code, but for ensuring your team is solving the end problems of the users.
