The team:
To support our continued growth, we’re hiring an Engineering Manager to join the Wallet Experience business unit. You’ll work directly with the Engineering Director and lead high-performing teams that deliver core features across our top-rated native applications. This is a hands-on leadership role: you’ll shape the product experience millions of users rely on every day and help define how a modern engineering team builds with AI.
What you’ll be doing:
Management
- Lead your team and meet regularly with your direct reports to give frequent, actionable feedback.
- Drive recruitment, performance assessments, training and career development for your team.
- Help each person set clear goals and improve their practices, supporting their growth and our retention goals.
- Build AI fluency in your team: coach engineers to use AI tools well, share what works, and make AI-assisted development part of how they grow.
Tech
- Drive projects end to end, applying best-in-class engineering practices: clean architecture, strong test coverage, code review and observability.
- Lead the adoption of AI across the development lifecycle, from coding agents and AI-assisted reviews to test generation and automated workflows. Set clear guardrails for quality, security and privacy.
- Participate in sprint delivery, monitor engineering metrics, and be accountable for the quality of what ships.
- Bring forward innovative solutions and encourage innovative thinking from others, including new ways AI can remove toil and speed up delivery.
Delivery & Impact
- Work closely with Delivery Managers, Product Owners and Designers to assess feasibility, give technical recommendations, and help with estimation and planning.
- Focus the team on outcomes, not output: tie work to user and business impact, and measure it.
- Delegate effectively so work is completed as specified, without micromanaging.
- Set clear expectations and make sure practices are followed to meet Ledger’s quality bar.
Leadership & Communication
- Bring a positive “can do” attitude and be a role model for others.
- Communicate proactively and be a well-identified point of contact for other teams.
- Track progress, risks and issues, and communicate them to the right stakeholders.
- Champion a culture of continuous improvement, where the team regularly reviews and raises its own standards.
What we’re looking for:
- 3+ years of experience managing engineering teams.
- Strong experience in React.js development, tools and libraries.
- Good knowledge of browsers and web APIs.
- Knowledge of React Native is appreciated.
- Hands-on experience using AI tools in software development (e.g. coding assistants or agents), and a clear view of how to adopt them responsibly at team level.
- A track record of raising engineering standards and delivering measurable impact.
- Experience with CI/CD and building deployment pipelines is a plus.
- Knowledge of UI/UX practices in software development.
- A team-player mindset, excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work cross-functionally.
- Enthusiasm for hiring and developing people.
- Willingness to build skills in the Web3 industry.
