Job Description

Windfall is seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead and grow our backend engineering teams across both our Platform and Application layers. You will guide a talented team of 7, composed primarily of senior engineers, with plans to grow to 10 in the near future. This group is the brain of our customer interactions; you'll be instrumental in mentoring them while overseeing the architecture for everything from our scalable data-ingestion systems to our AI-powered customer applications.

In this highly collaborative role, you'll work closely with product, data science, and other engineering teams to build robust, high-performance solutions from inception to production. We are on a mission to change how organizations perceive and use people data. And we hold true to our core values of : (1) Be an excellent communicator; (2) Operate with transparency; (3) Provide leverage, not optimization; (4) Make a difference every day; and (5) Act with integrity and trust.

Leadership & Management Experience

  • A demonstrated track record of leading, mentoring, and growing engineering teams, both in headcount and in the individual skill development of engineers.
  • At least 2-3 years in a dedicated Engineering Management role, as part of 8+ years of progressive software engineering experience.

Technical Breadth & Expertise

  • Broad technical knowledge with experience managing full-stack teams responsible for both backend services (Platform) and user-facing applications (Application).
  • Expert-level understanding of object-oriented programming, particularly with Java, as it is the core of our backend stack.
  • Proven experience with the architecture and maintenance of large-scale, high-performance distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with our technology stack is a plus : GCP, Python / Kotlin, BigQuery / Postgres, Dataflow / Spark, and Airflow.
  • Cultural & Operational Skills

  • Experience in a fast-paced, sub-200 person startup environment.
  • Strong communication skills, with a proven ability to simplify complex technical concepts for diverse audiences.
  • A pragmatic approach to balancing engineering quality with speed-of-delivery to meet business needs.
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
