About the role

This role isn't a hands-on coding position.
As a payments business, we operate to rigorous security and regulatory standards, so sound engineering judgment carries real weight here.
The best fit is someone who has managed engineers before, has enough technical depth to challenge engineering decisions credibly, and is comfortable leading through influence rather than authorship.

Manage and develop multiple teams of engineers across a wide seniority range, supporting their growth, performance, and career direction.
Lead blended teams of contractors and full-time staff, keeping each group focused, healthy, and productive.
Lead the teams through change - including driving AI tool adoption and challenging engineers to adapt how they work.
Act as a sounding board for tech leads - pressure-test their thinking and challenge over-engineering or over-thinking before it costs the teams time.
Partner with Product Owners and tech leads to keep delivery aligned, realistic, and well-prioritized.
Manage stakeholder relationships, communicating team capacity, progress, and trade-offs clearly.
Recruit and retain strong engineers, and build teams people want to work on.
A track record of leading through influence: guiding tech leads and POs rather than directing the work yourself.
NMI enables our partners with choice, and challenges the one-size-fits-all approach to payments.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent industry experience.
Proven experience managing software engineers, including senior engineers and a mix of contractors and full-time staff.
A track record of leading teams through change, including adopting new tools and ways of working.
growing engineers, keeping the teams healthy and focused, and steering decisions about technical debt and platform investment.
