About the Role

We’re looking for a delivery-focused Engineering Manager to build and lead our first Trust Accounting team. This team will design and deliver a financial subsystem that property managers can trust - accurate, compliant, and reliable. You’ll be responsible not only for delivery but also for establishing a culture where correctness and accountability are paramount. This is a greenfield opportunity where you’ll influence architecture, processes, and talent from day one.

What you’ll do:

• Build and lead a product engineering team (5-7 engineers) focused on financial correctness and compliance.

• Ensure timely, high-quality delivery of the trust accounting subsystem with secure, scalable, auditable, and maintainable architecture.

• Collaborate deeply with Product, Finance, Legal, and other Engineering teams to align on goals and ensure execution.

• Establish and refine processes to improve delivery speed, system reliability, and team autonomy.

• Mentor and coach engineers, fostering a culture of precision, ownership, and continuous improvement.

• Establish engineering practices that emphasize quality, resilience, and observability.

• Contribute technical context to discussions and decisions while fostering transparency and accountability.

• 6+ years of experience as a Software Engineering Manager or in a similar position (CTO, Head of Engineering Department, Director of Engineering) with direct people management responsibilities.

• A strong foundation in software engineering - you don\'t need to write production code daily, but you\'re able to engage in technical and architectural discussions.

• Proven experience leading engineering teams in a product-oriented environment, ideally within SaaS or platform businesses.

• Ability to drive execution: aligning team goals, managing delivery timelines, and removing blockers.

• Track record of mentoring engineers and creating an environment where people can grow and thrive.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, especially in distributed/remote settings.

• Comfortable working in agile environments with fast-moving priorities and cross-functional teams.

• Fluent English.

• Familiarity with fintech and accounting is a plus, but not required.

What success looks like:

• The trust accounting subsystem is delivered reliably, accurately, trusted by customers and regulators, and integrated seamlessly into the Hostaway platform.

• The team is high-performing, engaged, and growing under your leadership.

• Compliance and financial correctness are built into system design and delivery processes.

• Cross-functional collaboration with Finance, Legal, Product, and Engineering runs smoothly.

What we offer:

• Competitive Compensation: We offer competitive pay based on market rates in the country of the applicant.

• 100% Remote: Enjoy the freedom to work from anywhere within your country of residence—be it a co-working space, your home office, or even your dining room table. The choice is yours. Just don’t ask to work in our office (we don’t have one).

• Equity: Every role in our company comes with valuable stock options in a fast-growing and profitable company. This ensures we all share in the company’s success.

• Values-Driven Leadership: Our Core Values are not just words we’ve written to make us feel good. We leverage them daily when making strategic and tactical decisions.

• Professional Growth: Our rapid growth offers unparalleled learning and development opportunities, along with a multitude of career advancement opportunities.

• Annual Paid Leave: The specific amounts vary by country and are aligned with country and/or contract-specific norms.

• Geographic Specific Benefits: As an international employer, we offer different country-specific benefits such as Health Insurance and Pensions in countries where these perks are customary. The specifics depend on the country of the applicant.

• Dynamic Team Culture: As a global company with team members in over 40 countries, our diverse and international culture fuels our innovation and creativity, providing a key pillar to our success (and making it a lot of fun to work here).
