Engineering Manager

What You'll Do

Lead a Highly Technical Team

You will manage a small team of strong engineers and tech leads working on the core FloQast platform. Your role is to enable technical excellence and remove friction, not simply coordinate delivery.

You will:

• Mentor Staff Engineers, Tech Leads, and Senior Engineers

• Unblock complex technical problems

• Drive strong engineering decisions across the team

Build and Scale Backend Systems

FloQast operates a large-scale SaaS platform used by thousands of companies and millions of financial workflows.

You will help the team design and operate:

• Distributed backend services

• Scalable data pipelines

• Highly reliable production systems

• APIs and services powering accounting automation

Build AI-Powered Product Capabilities

FloQast is moving aggressively toward AI-native product development.

Your team will build:

• AI-driven workflow automation

• Intelligent agents operating across accounting processes

• Systems that integrate LLM reasoning with financial data models

Drive AI-First Development

AI coding tools are not optional here. We expect engineering leaders to actively use tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI systems to accelerate development and guide their teams in doing the same.

You will help define how AI changes:

• Software design

• Code generation

• Debugging

• Testing

• Refactoring

Raise the Technical Bar

You will actively participate in:

• Architecture reviews

• System design discussions

• Major code reviews

• Technical mentorship

This is a technical leadership role, not a coordination role.

What You'll Bring:

You Have Built Real Systems

• 8+ years of backend engineering experience

• Experience operating large-scale SaaS platforms

• Strong understanding of distributed systems, APIs, and data models

• Comfortable debugging production systems

You Are Still Technical

The best engineering managers we hire can still write code if needed and understand the systems their teams build. You should be comfortable:

• Reviewing complex pull requests

• Discussing architecture tradeoffs

• Guiding engineers through difficult technical problems

You Understand AI-Assisted Development

We expect engineering leaders to be AI-native builders. You should have experience using tools such as:

• Claude

• Cursor

• Or similar AI coding environments to accelerate development.

Experience building the following is a strong plus:

• AI agents

• LLM-powered workflows

• AI-assisted developer tooling

You Enable Strong Engineers

Your success will be measured by how effective your engineers become. You should have experience:

• Mentoring tech leads

• Growing senior engineers

• Removing technical blockers

• Helping teams move faster without sacrificing quality

What Makes This Role Different

Most engineering management roles focus on process and coordination. At FloQast, we believe engineering managers must be technical force multipliers.

You will help build:

• AI-powered accounting automation

• Agent-driven workflows

• Large-scale financial software systems

...while helping a strong team of engineers operate at a very high technical bar.
