Ledger - Engineering Manager
Requirements
• Proven experience (3+ years) managing backend engineering teams in a product-driven, distributed environment • Strong technical background in backend systems. You can credibly challenge architectural decisions, review design documents, and unblock engineers on hard technical problems • Experience operating services at scale and familiarity with high-availability architectures, event-driven systems, and observability tooling (RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, Flink, NATS, Datadog or equivalent) • Comfortable with polyglot stacks. The team works across TypeScript and Scala; you don't need to be an expert in both but need enough depth to lead effectively • Track record of navigating complex multi-team dependencies and influencing across organizational boundaries without direct authority • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English • Bonus points: exposure to blockchain or crypto infrastructure (account indexing, transaction lifecycle, UTXO vs account-based models), and a genuine interest in the Web3 space
Responsibilities
• Lead and grow your team. Own hiring, onboarding, performance management, and the professional development of your engineers. Run regular 1:1s, support career growth, and build a high-performing, engaged team. • Drive technical delivery. Own the team's roadmap and PI planning commitments. Ensure on-time, high-quality delivery across the team's service portfolio and ongoing architectural initiatives while coordinating across dependencies with Coin Integration, Ledger Enterprise, Ledger Live, and Infrastructure teams. • Maintain operational excellence. Own SLIs/SLOs for team services. Lead incident response posture, on-call culture, and observability standards for production-critical systems. • Architect for scale and reliability. Partner with tech leads and staff engineers to drive sound technical decisions on a polyglot stack (TypeScript, Scala) handling high throughput, multi-chain complexity, and strict reliability requirements. Review ADRs and ensure architectural coherence. • Champion engineering practices. Drive strong standards on CI/CD, testing (including end-to-end on testnets), code review quality, technical debt management, and AI-assisted engineering workflows. • Contribute to org-level initiatives. Participate in cross-BU architectural working groups, PI planning, and engineering efficiency programs. • You will collaborate cross-functionally with: • The Blockchain platform team for data model alignment, indexing and event streaming • The Coin Integration team for coin module ownership and new blockchain integrations • The Ledger Enterprise team for enterprise wallet features and operational alignment • The Ledger Live / Wallet XP teams as consumers of the team's backend APIs • The Infrastructure and SRE teams for platform reliability and scalability • The Product team for roadmap prioritization and customer-driven requirements • The Security team for vulnerability analysis and compliance
