Engineering Manager: Agent & Developer Platform

At Ledgy, we’re on a mission to make Europe a powerhouse of entrepreneurship by building a modern, tech-driven equity management and financial reporting platform for private and public companies. In 2026, we aim to be the leading provider for European IPOs and reporting for share-based payments. We are a value-based company with a core focus on being humble, transparent, ambitious and impactful, all in order to deliver the best experience for our customers and end users.

About the Role

As a hands-on Engineering Manager of our agent and developer platform at Ledgy, you'll lead the team that makes everything else possible, the infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, developer and agent tooling, security posture, and platform capabilities that thousands of employees worldwide depend on to experience equity ownership. You'll lead a team of 4–6 engineers building the foundation for Ledgy’s next chapter: a platform where AI agents operate as first-class citizens alongside human engineers.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You:

• Have a strong vision for what modern platform engineering looks like when AI agents are writing, testing, and deploying code alongside humans.
• Bring deep experience in CI/CD, DevOps, and infrastructure - and opinions about how to make pipelines fast, reliable, and agent-friendly.
• Are excited about building systems that scale: observability, deployment automation, developer experience, and infrastructure-as-code.
• Have a security-minded approach to platform engineering - you understand that when AI agents have access to production systems and sensitive financial data, the security model needs to evolve, and you're eager to help define what that looks like.
• Love developing people, watching engineers grow and tackle increasingly sophisticated challenges.
• Want to remain hands-on - you're comfortable building with Terraform, debugging pipelines, and shipping improvements yourself, and you actively use AI tools to multiply your output.
• Have 3+ years experience in Engineering Management and 6+ years as a Software Engineer, with meaningful time spent in platform, infrastructure, or DevOps roles.

What You’ll Own:

• Team Leadership: Leading a team of platform engineers, setting technical direction, and creating an environment where people do the best work of their careers.
• CI/CD & Developer Experience: Our build and deployment pipelines - making them fast, reliable, and optimised for both human and AI-agent workflows.
• Infrastructure & Observability: Our GCP infrastructure, Terraform configuration, monitoring, and alerting.
• Security Partnership: Working alongside our CISO to define and execute Ledgy's security strategy.
• AI Infrastructure & Agent Platform: Building the foundations that let both humans and AI agents operate effectively in Ledgy's systems.

Our tech stack:

• Language: TypeScript
• Frontend: React, Tailwind CSS, tRPC
• Backend: tRPC, Node.js, MongoDB, Temporal
• Infrastructure: GCP, Terraform Cloud, Kubernetes, Docker, Github Actions

What Your Journey Could Look Like:

• First 30 Days: Build meaningful relationships with your direct reports and understand their career aspirations. Get hands-on with our CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure, and deployment processes - identify the biggest friction points.
• First 3 Months: Own and drive improvements to pipeline reliability and speed - set measurable SLOs for build times, deployment frequency, and failure rates.
• 6–12 Months: Be recognised as the technical leader who defines how Ledgy's platform scales - for both humans and agents.

The Interview Process:

• Getting to know you (30 min): meet with someone from our people team to talk about your experience and to answer questions about the role.
• Live Coding (60 min): A problem-solving session using your preferred language and IDE.
• System Design (60 min): Walk us through an architecture you've significantly contributed to.
• Mock 1:1 (45 min): A mock coaching conversation with one of our engineers.
• Culture & Vision (30 min): Meet one of our founders to discuss Ledgy's mission.

Being part of Ledgy means:

• Recharge and re-energize with flexible working hours, 25 days of vacation, and up to 40 days of remote work from outside your home country.
• We make space for your own professional development, with a generous yearly learning & development budget.
• This role will receive a competitive salary + benefits + equity.
