You will be actively involved in the design of various components behind scalable applications, from frontend UI to backend infrastructure.

We are seeking an experienced and passionate Engineering Manager to lead our cross-functional Retail Trading team. This is a critical leadership role where you will be responsible for guiding a talented team of iOS, Android, Backend, and QA engineers to build and scale our innovative retail trading products. As a key engineering partner to the Product Manager, you will shape the technical vision, drive execution, and foster a culture of excellence and rapid innovation.

Responsibilities

• Lead and Mentor: Manage and grow a high-performing, cross-functional engineering team (iOS, Android, Backend, QA), fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment.
• Technical Strategy & Execution: Partner with the Product Manager to define the product roadmap and technical strategy. Drive the end-to-end delivery of new features and products, from conception and design to development, deployment, and maintenance.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Act as the primary engineering voice, collaborating closely with product, design, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment and successful project execution.
• Fill the Gaps: Proactively identify and address technical, process, or resource gaps within the engineering team to ensure smooth and efficient development cycles.
• Architectural Oversight: Guide the team in making sound architectural decisions for scalable, secure, and reliable systems that support our global retail trading platform.
• Operational Excellence: Champion best practices for software development, including agile methodologies, code reviews, testing, and CI/CD, to ensure high-quality and timely delivery.
• Stakeholder Management: Effectively communicate project status, risks, and technical details to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Innovation and Growth: Encourage a culture of continuous improvement and innovation, empowering the team to experiment with new technologies and approaches to solve complex problems.

Requirements

• Proven Leadership: Demonstrated experience in leading, managing, and mentoring software engineering teams, preferably in a cross-functional environment including mobile (iOS/Android) and backend engineers.
• Strong Technical Acumen: A strong background in software development with the ability to contribute to technical discussions and architectural decisions. While hands-on coding isn't the primary focus, familiarity with technologies like Golang, Ruby on Rails, Postgres, Redis, and Kafka is highly preferred.
• Mobile Expertise: Experience with native mobile development (iOS, Android) and/or cross-platform frameworks like React Native is a huge plus.
• Product Partnership: Experience working as a key engineering partner with product managers to build and deliver successful products.
• Domain Expertise: A deep understanding of the retail trading, fintech, or financial services industry is a significant advantage. Knowledge of blockchain technology is a plus.
• Problem-Solving Mindset: A "get things done" mentality with a proven ability to navigate ambiguity, solve complex technical challenges, and drive projects to completion.
• Excellent Communication: Strong organizational, interpersonal, and communication skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and influence stakeholders at all levels.
• Language Proficiency: Excellent command of English (written and spoken) and proficiency in spoken Mandarin.
• Scalability and Performance: Experience with designing and building scalable, secure, and high-performance systems for large-scale applications.
• Collaborative Spirit: A humble and collaborative leader who is open to new ideas, challenges, and is passionate about building world-class products.
