New York, New York, United States Justworks Full time
Who You Are

Our Payments team is hiring an Engineering Manager to scale and launch fast and accurate APIs and SaaS products as Justworks' fintech functions evolve. Money-movement is an essential element of payroll—a core requirement of any business—and the demands of accurately calculating and reporting all of its financial transactions are a lot to take on. We simplify payments and money-movement so that our customers can focus on what they do best.

As Engineering Manager, you'll lead the team that owns the core backend service powering all money-movement at Justworks. You will lead technical decision making on a mission critical team and be expected to take initiative in identifying projects that will enable us to meet business goals. We're looking for people that have a passion for solving real-world problems and will thrive building a growing team.

What You Will Work On
Lead the development process and delivery of mission-critical systems that power money-movement for Justworks internal and external customers
Collaborate with the team to push our foundational payments infrastructure forward, taking an active, hands-on role in guiding the team as we scale
Partner with Product to define and execute the team's long-term strategy and quarterly roadmap, including setting goals and measuring progress/success towards them
Work cross functionally with teams (within engineering and across Justworks) to understand the requirements and opportunities for improvement
Mentor engineers to help them grow their technical skills by fostering a culture of technical excellence, innovation, and continuous learning
Define and implement engineering best practices and processes to improve team efficiency and productivity
Conduct code reviews, identify and resolve technical issues, and ensure code quality and scalability
Attract, hire, and retain high-caliber engineers
Develop deep subject matter expertise in payments and money-movement so that our customers and internal operations stakeholders don't have to
Help drive sound technical decision-making and lead technical conversations with other teams across Justworks
Perform other related duties as assigned

How You Will Do Your Work

As an Engineering Manager, how results are achieved is paramount for your success and ultimately result in our success as an organization. In this role, your foundational knowledge, skills, abilities and personal attributes are anchored in the following competencies:

Good judgment - the exercise of critical thinking, analyzing and assessing problems and implications, identifying patterns, making connections of underlying issues, understanding risks and developing mitigation strategies, and taking ownership of the outcome.

Resourcefulness - taking a can-do approach, even in the face of obstacles and constraints by assessing what's in front of you and effectively and efficiently optimizing what you have, whether it's working on something new or thinking about how to do something better.

Teamwork and communication - putting our collective best together through documentation, collaboration, relationship-building, listening, empathy, recruiting, and evangelism.

Influence and leadership -

fostering a community of knowledge-sharing, collaboration, mentorship, and forward-thinking.

Skills and knowledge - the capacity to actively learn and apply specific domain knowledge, know-how, and best practices to continually enhance and improve.

In addition, all Justworkers focus on aligning their behaviors to our core values known as COGIS. It stands for:

Camaraderie - Day to day you can be seen working together toward a higher purpose. You like to have fun. You're an active listener, treat people respectfully, and have a strong desire to know and help others.
Openness - Your default is to be open. You're willing to share information, understand other perspectives, and consider new possibilities. You're curious, ask open questions, and are receptive to thoughts and feedback from others.
Grit - You demonstrate grit by having the courage to commit and persevere. You're committed, earnest, and dive in to get the job done well with a positive attitude.
Integrity - Simply put, do what you say and say what you'll do. You're honest and forthright, have a strong moral compass, and strive to match your words with your actions while leading by example.
Simplicity - Be like Einstein: "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler."
