London | Hybrid Myn is recruiting for a technology-led financial services organisation and is looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead and develop a team responsible for business-critical software and digital platforms.
Engineering Manager
We're looking for someone who combines strong people leadership with genuine technical credibility. You don't need to be writing production code every day, but you should understand modern software engineering well enough to challenge decisions, support senior engineers and help teams deliver better technology.
The role
You'll take responsibility for the performance, development and delivery of an engineering team, working closely with Product, Architecture, Platform and other technology leaders.
A major part of the role will be creating an environment where engineers can perform at their best. That means removing blockers, improving engineering practices, developing people and making sure technical quality isn't sacrificed for short-term delivery.
You’ll also help shape technical direction, support architectural discussions and contribute to wider engineering initiatives.
What we're looking for
- Previous experience leading software engineering teams
- Strong background in software engineering or technology
- Experience coaching and developing engineers
- Strong understanding of modern software development practices
- Experience working with Product and Architecture teams
- Ability to balance delivery, technical quality and longer-term engineering priorities
- Experience improving engineering processes and ways of working
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
- Experience hiring and developing technical talent
- A background in Java/backend engineering, cloud platforms, distributed systems, DevOps or platform engineering would be particularly relevant.
- Experience within fintech, payments, banking, SaaS or another large-scale digital environment would also be beneficial.
We're looking for an Engineering Manager who can lead people effectively while remaining close enough to the technology to understand the challenges their engineers are solving.
