Job description

Head of Engineering | High-Growth Fintech Unicorn

NYC - Hybrid

We're partnering with one of the fastest-growing fintech companies - having achieved unicorn status and built a product that delivers meaningful impact to millions of customers globally, the business is entering its next phase of scale.

Backed by exceptional growth, strong product-market fit, and a leadership team that includes some of the industry's most accomplished operators, they're looking for a Head of Engineering to help shape the future of the company.

This is a rare opportunity to join a mission-led organisation solving real-world problems while building technology at significant scale.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Join a high-growth fintech unicorn with ambitious plans for the next stage of expansion

Work alongside some of the most respected leaders and builders in the fintech ecosystem

Lead technology for a business delivering meaningful social impact at global scale

Drive the adoption of AI and emerging technologies across products and operations

Receive a highly competitive compensation package, including meaningful equity with significant upside potential

Influence company strategy as a key member of the leadership team

The Opportunity

As Head of Engineering, you'll define the technology vision, scale a world-class engineering organisation, and help build the next generation of products that power the company's continued growth.

You'll partner directly with the executive team to drive innovation, accelerate delivery, and ensure the business remains at the forefront of technology and AI adoption.

What You'll Lead

Engineering, Platform, DevOps, Security and Data functions

A high-performing team of ~35 engineers with the opportunity to scale and evolve the organisation

Technology strategy, architecture, and engineering excellence across the business

AI initiatives that enhance both internal operations and customer-facing products

Hiring, leadership development, and engineering culture

Cross-functional collaboration across Product, Data, Operations and Executive Leadership

Who You Are

A proven technology leader with experience scaling engineering teams in high-growth environments

Passionate about building exceptional teams, products, and cultures

Comfortable leading organisational transformation and driving technical excellence

Commercially minded with the ability to align technology decisions to business outcomes

Excited by the potential of AI and emerging technologies

Motivated by the opportunity to combine commercial success with genuine customer impact

What's In It For You?

Significant Equity Upside

Direct Influence on Company Strategy

Mission-Driven Business Creating Meaningful Impact

Opportunity to Shape a Category-Defining Fintech Unicorn

For ambitious engineering leaders who want to build at scale, leverage AI, and leave a lasting impact, this is one of the most compelling opportunities in the market today.
