Mercury
Senior Engineering Manager - Banking
Mercury, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Overview
A busy rail switchyard moves thousands of cards every hour. Trains come in from different lines carrying all kinds of cargo, schedules change constantly, but everything keeps flowing smoothly and safely. Banking works the same way. At Mercury, we move money instead of freight cars, but the principles are similar. Money comes from everywhere; each transaction has its own set of rules, and we have to keep everything running on schedule so that customers, regulators, and business partners can count on us. Your job as an engineering manager at Mercury is to make our banking core run so smoothly that people barely notice it’s there. Responsibilities

Collaborate with other teams when work overlaps, ideally to achieve a more cohesive product and simpler, more maintainable underlying technical implementation. Balance building new things with maintaining existing systems. Empower your team to thrive and contribute to making Mercury’s product reliable, beautiful, and useful. Qualifications
