Senior Engineering Manager leading product-focused engineering teams at Savvy Wealth. Driving project execution and team development while scaling a modern wealth management platform.
Responsibilities
Drive execution & delivery: own technical project management, ensure projects are well scoped, deadlines are met, and quality is high.
Partner closely with our product and design teams to scope project feasibility and estimates.
Be a force multiplier: unblock engineers, help them grow, and maintain a high-performing culture that’s accountable to impact and delivery.
Lead & grow an engineering team (6+ direct reports), providing coaching, feedback, and career development, as well as managing performance, hiring, and when needed, making tough calls.
Wear multiple hats: step into product leadership when needed, meet with customers and prospects, and collaborate cross-functionally with sales, operations, compliance, and leadership.
Shape our engineering culture: help us scale from Series B to beyond, putting the right processes in place without heavy bureaucracy. Make sure your team feels empowered to deliver impact at high velocity.
Requirements
3+ years as an engineering manager at a mid-size, scaling startup (typically Series A–C), managing both technical execution and people (performance, hiring, firing).
Managed a team of at least 4-6+ engineers directly.
Background of 3+ years as a fullstack or backend engineer so that you are strong enough to dive into technical details, guide system design decisions, and mentor your team.
A delivery & execution-focused mindset, with clear awareness of your impact as an engineering leader.
Passion for enabling teams while holding them accountable for execution.
Experience on product-focused teams (shipping user-facing features) vs. solely infrastructure/platform teams.
Excited to grow with Savvy from Series B to later stages.
