About the role
- We help banks increase deposits and non-interest income by expanding their footprint through FinTech and embedded finance partnerships.

- This is not a role for someone who wants to sit above the work.
Responsibilities
- Lead and develop engineers across multiple backend and platform teams, including coaching, performance feedback, hiring, and day-to-day prioritization

- At Synctera, engineers do more than maintain existing systems.
- They help design and build new platform capabilities that directly shape how our products work and how the company scales.

Requirements
