Company Description

Series A financial infrastructure startup backed by Thrive Capital and Figma CEO Dylan Field

Job Description

Lead a high-performing engineering team rebuilding the financial backbone for American agriculture and industry. You will own the full employee lifecycle, from hiring senior talent to mentoring engineers, while scaling a modern platform that replaces legacy paperwork with automated tools for accounting, banking, and real-time financial clarity.

Location:

New York, Denver, and San Francisco, USA

Why This Role Is Remarkable

• Direct real-world impact: Build tools that help family-run businesses and independent operators become profitable and climate-resilient, rather than shipping products for faceless enterprises.
• Elite backing and leadership: Join a Series A team funded by Thrive Capital and Homebrew, reporting to a Head of Engineering who scaled orgs at Twitter and Chainalysis.
• AI-Native culture: Help define the future of engineering management by pragmatically integrating AI tools into the development workflow to solve complex, messy real-world data problems.

What You Will Do

• Manage the full employee lifecycle for 4-5 engineers, focusing on hiring senior ICs, coaching, and career development as the team scales.
• Partner with Product and Design leadership to influence the roadmap, balancing technical debt with the delivery of high-impact full-stack features.
• Champion engineering excellence by establishing project management hygiene and guiding the team through complex architectural trade-offs in a TypeScript and React environment.

The Ideal Candidate

• Proven leadership experience with 2-5+ years in engineering management at high-growth startups (Series A-D) and a strong background as a high-performing IC.
• Technically sophisticated and AI-native, with the ability to reason about how LLMs and modern tooling are fundamentally changing the software development lifecycle.
• Exceptional people-first instincts, focusing on solving organizational challenges through mentorship and culture before moving to technical implementation.

We Never Post Fake Jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.

Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
