[Hiring] Engineering Manager @Finom

Role Description

We're looking for an Engineering Manager who's both a technical leader and a product builder. You'll guide a cross-functional team (5-10 engineers across backend, frontend, mobile, and QA) in delivering products that create real value for hundreds of thousands of businesses across Europe.

• You're a seasoned technical leader with strong engineering roots and a track record of building teams that ship products that matter.
• You communicate clearly with everyone – engineers, product managers, executives – and you're genuinely curious about the product, the users, the business, and how your team's work drives real impact.
• You don't just manage delivery; you challenge problem framing with your PM partner, ensure the team solves the right problems, and think in terms of business outcomes, not just technical outputs.
• You're comfortable discussing retention and conversion funnels alongside system architecture.
• You help the team understand ROI and prioritize based on value and effort.
• You have deep technical expertise and can still step in to unblock when needed.
• You balance feature delivery with technical debt, keeping scalability in mind while ensuring the team ships at pace.
• You make technical decisions through explicit trade-offs, not gut feelings, and help everyone understand the "why" behind choices.
• You take ownership of both outcomes and people.
• You run meaningful 1:1s, create growth plans, and own hiring and promotions.
• You build engaged teams through honest feedback and coaching.
• You invest in making the team more productive – better tools, smarter processes, fewer bottlenecks.
• You drive predictable delivery by partnering tightly with Product and Design.
• You communicate proactively about priorities, risks, and constraints.
• You encourage healthy debate and move toward "disagree and commit" when needed.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of software development building data-intensive production systems.
• Proven track record leading cross-functional engineering teams.
• Deep technical knowledge: hands-on experience with at least one of the common general-purpose languages and platforms (C#/.NET, Java/JVM, JavaScript/Node, Go), distributed architectures, databases, messaging and queueing systems.
• Experience in product-led organizations, ideally with international scope.
• Strong business acumen – you connect engineering work to revenue, retention, and trust.
• Comfortable with product metrics (DAU/MAU, retention, conversion funnels).
• Exceptional communication in English across all audiences.
• A builder's mentality: you care about shipping great products and growing great teams.

Requirements

• Backend: .NET Core, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Kafka, Kubernetes.
• You'll lead teams using React, Swift/Kotlin, Python/ML frameworks, and modern QA tools.

Benefits

• Make a genuine impact on the product.
• Work in the EU with flexibility of traveling and working remotely or in a hybrid model across Europe.
• Become a stock options holder through our Stock Options Program.
• Receive unwavering support and care reflecting our commitment to your well-being and success.
• Immerse yourself in our exclusive Work & Swim Program in Cyprus.
