About the Role

We're hiring a Vice President of Engineering to lead software engineering, DevOps, and data, and to serve on our executive team reporting to the CEO. You'll own how we build, ship, and run the platform banks and fintechs depend on every day. This is a leadership role first. You're technical and can go deep on architecture and tradeoffs with your team, but your job is building a strong team, setting clear direction, and keeping engineering closely tied to customers and the rest of the business. You lead through influence, earn trust across functions, and bring people along when priorities or practices need to change. AI is changing what a small engineering team can build and how it adds value. You'll work with our CEO and VP of Product to shape our AI direction, challenge it where the evidence says so, and turn it into work the team can deliver.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the team: Coach and grow engineers, DevOps, data, and our engineering manager. Build a culture of ownership and pride in craft, and give direct, caring feedback. Make sure critical knowledge and on-call never rest on one person.
  • Set direction: Connect engineering strategy to company goals and customer outcomes. Evolve how the team plans, prioritizes, and ships, and raise quality and predictability without adding unnecessary process.
  • Keep customers at the center: Make sure the team understands the customer's problem before it builds, through call reviews, implementation work, and time with the people who talk to customers every day. Treat Revenue, Client Services, and Implementations as teammates: when they need help landing or supporting a customer, the team's first answer is how we can help, and you make capacity tradeoffs. Help the team see that customer focus means solving the customer's real problem, not building every request.
  • Build with AI: Treat AI as a way to change how we scale, not just a productivity add-on. Find places where AI can take on whole pieces of work in complex, regulated financial workflows, and measure success by results customers and partner banks can trust. Choose models and tools on cost and performance, revisit what's been built as the technology changes, and be willing to rebuild or retire what no longer makes sense. Lead by example, using AI in your own work so it becomes a natural part of how the team builds.
  • Work across the company: Contribute to company strategy as an exec team member and partner with our VP of Product as a true peer: challenge direction with data, then commit and lead the team through it. Make engineering a trusted partner to Revenue, Client Services, Implementations, Compliance, and Operations, and explain technical tradeoffs in plain business terms.
  • Run a secure, regulated platform: Guide architecture, own reliability and incident response, and own engineering's part in SOC 2, PCI, and bank partner security reviews. Make sure AI systems get security review that matches the responsibility they're given.

Requirements

  • 7+ years in software engineering, including 3+ years leading engineering organizations through managers
  • Head of engineering experience (VP, Head of, or similar) with a seat on an executive or senior leadership team
  • A strong technical foundation in backend systems, APIs, and distributed architecture, plus experience leading DevOps or infrastructure and data teams (we run on AWS)
  • A track record of building teams people want to join and stay on, and leading them through constant change and innovation
  • Hands-on experience leading a team through AI adoption, with a clear view of where AI helps, where it doesn't, and how to change the way a team uses it
  • Comfort engaging with a founder-CEO's vision: debating it, pushing back with evidence, and turning it into something a team can build
  • Strong cross-functional partnerships, especially with sales and customer success, and a track record of putting engineers close to customers and using customer evidence to change what the team builds
  • Experience in a regulated or security-sensitive industry such as fintech, payments, or banking
  • Comfort in a small, fast-moving company where leaders are both strategic and hands-on
  • Banking as a Service, core banking, payments, or ledger experience
  • Clojure or other functional programming languages
  • Leading engineering at a B2B company under 100 people through the growing pains that come with scaling a business
  • Building or running a security program
  • Shipping LLM-based or agentic products
