Job Description

Payroll is a new product area at Airwallex, and London is where we’re building the engineering team from day one. As the first Engineering Manager for Payroll in London, you’ll have a rare opportunity to shape a foundational product line—setting the team’s operating model, technical direction, and delivery cadence from the start. You’ll lead the build-out of the core Payroll software layer (services, APIs, workflows, integrations) that customers will trust every pay cycle. It’s a high-ownership, high-visibility role with real scope: balancing product speed with the engineering bar required for correctness, security, and compliance in a regulated domain.

Job Responsibility

  • Build, lead, and grow a high-performing Payroll engineering team in London
  • Partner with Product and Design to define roadmap, scope, and success metrics
  • translate customer needs into an executable plan
  • Own the technical strategy and architecture for Payroll services and APIs, with a focus on scalability, reliability, security, and maintainability
  • Drive strong delivery practices: planning, prioritisation, execution, and continuous improvement
  • Lead cross-functional execution with stakeholders across Compliance/Legal, Risk, Operations, Support, and other engineering teams
  • Stay hands-on where it matters: guide design reviews, de-risk complex initiatives, and raise the bar on engineering quality
  • Establish operational excellence for production systems (monitoring, incident response, postmortems, reliability improvements), and ensure auditability/traceability is built in

Requirements

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience, including strong backend/system design expertise
  • 2+ years experience as an Engineering Manager leading small to mid-sized teams (or equivalent leadership experience)
  • Strong product sense: ability to make tradeoffs, iterate quickly, and build for customer outcomes
  • Track record building API- and integration-heavy systems in production environments
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills in cross-functional settings

Nice to have

  • Experience in fintech, payroll, payments, or other regulated domains
  • Experience building 0→1 products/teams and scaling systems as adoption grows

What we offer

  • Offers Equity
  • Offers Bonus
  • medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • a 401(k) plan
  • short-term and long-term disability
  • basic life insurance
  • well-being benefits
  • 20 paid days of vacation
  • 12 paid days of company holidays in a calendar year
