Engineering Manager

Adaptive

About the role

We're excited to share this opportunity to join our growing team at Adaptive! As an Engineering Manager, you'll play a key role in shaping both our product and engineering culture at an early stage.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll manage a team of 5-7 engineers while remaining deeply involved in technical decisions and execution. Reporting to the VP of Engineering, you'll work closely with a tight-knit team to drive impactful product delivery, contribute to architecture, and ensure we build high-quality, scalable systems.

Responsibilities
  • Lead, manage, and develop a team of 5-7 engineers, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management

  • Own end-to-end delivery of product initiatives, working closely with the team to ship quickly and iterate based on feedback

  • Act as a force multiplier by unblocking the team, simplifying problems, and maintaining strong execution momentum

  • Stay hands-on in the codebase, contributing across the stack where it matters most and setting a high technical bar

  • Drive pragmatic architectural decisions that balance speed and long-term scalability

Qualifications
  • 5-8+ years of software engineering experience with 1-3+ years of formal people management experience leading engineers

  • Strong technical depth with a willingness to be hands-on when needed

  • Experience operating in a startup or high-growth environment with evolving priorities

  • Proven track record of shipping products quickly and making sound trade-offs between speed and quality

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills with a high-ownership, low-ego mindset

What we offer
  • Competitive salary plus meaningful equity

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance

  • 401(k) match and flexible PTO policy

  • A seat at the table in a rapidly scaling fintech startup

  • Unlimited opportunities for professional growth and leadership

In-office mandate
  • This role requires you to work Monday - Thursday in our sunny Union Square office.
