Engineering Manager

You will build and lead the engineering team behind new online stock trading product, from zero to launch and beyond. This is a founding engineering leadership role on a greenfield product in a domain where correctness is not negotiable: orders, positions, and money must be right every time, under latency and market-hours pressure. You will hire the team, set the technical direction, and own delivery of a platform that handles real customer capital. What you'll do • Build and lead the trading engineering team from the ground up: hire, mentor, and grow engineers, and set the bar for a domain where a bug is a financial loss, not a ticket. • Own the technical strategy and architecture for the trading platform: order lifecycle and execution, market data ingestion and distribution, positions and portfolio, settlement and reconciliation. • Drive broker, exchange, and market data integrations, and the connectivity decisions that come with them. • Own reliability and correctness under market conditions: latency budgets, capacity for open and close and volatility spikes, idempotency, and reconciliation that proves the books are right. • Partner with product, compliance, risk, and finance so regulatory, KYC, AML, and audit requirements are designed in rather than retrofitted. • Establish the engineering practices this domain demands: rigorous testing, controlled release, incident response, and audit-grade observability across the order path.
