Job Description
The Manage Money team develops the systems that let members control how funds move through their accounts. Its scope takes in moves between a member's own accounts, direct debit mandates, recurring transfers, sweep rules and balance alerts. Because the team serves the UK, India and the EU, each market brings separate payment schemes, regulatory duties and banking partners.
This remote Engineering Manager role is about getting things right every time. Direct debit mandates bring scheme rules, disputes and indemnity claims, and scheduled instructions such as standing orders and sweeps leave no room for mistakes. The manager defines the team's technical course, partners with product on what to build, and pushes for better monitoring, service level objectives and sound architecture.
Seven engineers in Lithuania and Bulgaria, working on server-side and app code, report into this role. The manager is expected to stay close to the detail of mandate management, scheduling, sweep logic and transfer flows, and to coach engineers at every stage of their careers.
Candidates need genuine engineering management experience, a strong server-side background and a record of guiding teams spread across time zones. Fintech or banking experience is required, and experience with direct debits or standing orders is a major advantage.
