Job description
We are seeking an innovative and forward-thinking Engineering Manager passionate about building a world-class platform through a world-class team. Driving the technical direction of the technology, the evolution of the team, and the engineering excellence to make great things happen.
About the Netting Team
The team builds and maintains our multilateral netting platform - a critical solution that enables enterprise customers to consolidate thousands of intercompany payment obligations into a streamlined set of net settlements. Instead of every entity paying every other entity individually across borders, currencies, and banking relationships, our platform calculates optimal net positions and dramatically reduces the volume of cross-border payments that actually need to move. The result: reduced transaction and banking fees, and far less operational overhead.
It's a domain where precision matters - if you enjoy building systems where correctness, performance, and usability intersect with real financial impact, this is a team where your work is felt directly on the bottom line.
