Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to provide people leadership, technical direction, and strategic oversight across a complex enterprise application portfolio. This role is ideal for a seasoned engineering leader who has grown through the engineering ranks, brings deep technical credibility, and thrives in environments that include legacy systems, vendor platforms, and long‑term modernization initiatives. The Engineering Manager will lead multiple product teams supporting mission‑critical business capabilities, with a strong emphasis on team development, architectural decision‑making, and modernization strategy. Success in this role requires balancing delivery, technology health, and long‑term sustainability while operating within real‑world enterprise constraints.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead and develop multiple cross‑functional product teams, including engineers, scrum masters, and a staff engineer
  • Build, coach, and retain high‑performing engineering teams with a strong culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement
  • Provide regular 1:1 coaching, performance feedback, and career development planning
  • Foster psychological safety and a growth‑oriented team environment
  • Actively participate in architectural discussions and technical tradeoff decisions, including deep, hands‑on conversations
  • Guide teams toward sound system‑level and portfolio‑level architecture decisions rather than isolated optimizations
  • Review and influence solution design, integration approaches, and modernization strategies
  • Maintain credibility through hands‑on technical engagement, code review familiarity, and solution design participation
  • Provide leadership across a diverse application ecosystem, including: Packaged vendor platforms, Custom and in‑house applications, Legacy and mainframe systems
  • Lead or contribute to large‑scale, multi‑year modernization efforts involving deeply interdependent systems and aging data platforms
  • Coach teams through complex modernization journeys, balancing business continuity with long‑term transformation
  • Partner closely with product, architecture, and DevOps teams to influence priorities without direct ownership
  • Drive effective prioritization, capacity planning, and delivery execution across constrained environments
  • Assess and balance technology health, delivery commitments, and long‑term sustainability
  • Support roadmap planning aligned to multi‑year strategic objectives and capital investment planning
  • Guide teams through build vs. buy decisions and vendor platform tradeoffs
  • Support vendor selection, platform evaluation, and ongoing vendor relationships
  • Navigate constraints and dependencies inherent in third‑party software ecosystems
  • Responsible for approximately five product teams
  • Direct leadership of engineers and scrum masters
  • Oversight of a blended team including full‑time employees, long‑term contractors, and burst‑capacity resources

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent experience
  • Significant experience as an engineering people leader with demonstrated success managing and developing engineers
  • Background originating from hands‑on engineering roles (not purely oversight or adjacent functions)
  • Experience leading or influencing large enterprise application portfolios
  • Proven ability to engage in deep technical and architectural discussions
  • Experience working within corporate or enterprise technology environments
  • Familiarity with Agile and product‑oriented operating models
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate the technical "why" to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders

Nice to have

  • Experience with Java‑based systems
  • Exposure to financial services, finance technology, or actuarial systems
  • Experience leading legacy modernization initiatives
  • Comfort operating in matrixed organizations and influencing without full authority

Requirements
  • 5+ years as a security or full-stack engineer working on production systems, with 2+ years managing a security or platform engineering team
  • Hands-on depth in application security: threat modeling, code review, and at least one offensive-security discipline (pen testing, red team)
  • Track record of shipping automation that changed how a team worked - ideally including meaningful use of LLMs, agents, or ML in a security or engineering workflow
  • Comfort operating across the full security lifecycle: prevention, detection, response, and recovery
  • Strong written communication. You can write the design doc, the post-mortem, and the board-ready summary - and you can tell a product engineer why their proposal needs to change without shutting down the conversation
  • Keen product sense and a bias toward measurable impact. You care whether the risk actually went down, not whether a ticket got closed
Job Responsibility
Job Responsibility
  • Lead and grow the Application Security team - coaching senior AppSec engineers, setting goals, and owning delivery against the security roadmap
  • Build the automated pen-testing program. Stand up pipelines that run continuous, AI-assisted offensive testing against our services, APIs, and web properties - and turn the output into a triaged, actionable queue
  • Scale triage with AI. Design the workflows and tooling that let the team handle 10x the volume of findings (bug bounty, scanner output, customer reports) without 10x the headcount
  • Review engineering proposals. Sit at the front of the design process with engineering leaders across Core, Clear, Shield, Connect, and Atlas - reviewing RFCs and proposals, flagging risk early, and helping teams ship securely by default
  • Run red-teaming exercises. Drive recurring red team engagements - both internal exercises and coordinated vendor work - and close the loop into detection, response, and product hardening
  • Own the AppSec vision. Partner with the leadership team to set multi-quarter strategy across anomaly detection, threat modeling, and AI-augmented defense
  • Fight fires when they happen. Lead incident response from the application security side, and be the person engineering trusts to make the call in the room
  • Mentor and hire. Recruit strong AppSec engineers, mentor the ones you have, and build a team culture where people are pushed and supported in equal measure
