Funds, fund administrators, and their investors use its software to manage subscriptions, capital calls, and distributions. Today, Nova supports $1.2B+ in deposits, $100M+ in weekly transfers across six bank integrations, and ~150k verified investors. These are some of the highest-stakes moments in the private markets. Fund managers, investors, and administrators are moving real money and expect every detail to be right. Nova earns and keeps the trust of GPs and LPs by meeting that expectation every time.\nWe're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead and grow Nova Product. This team owns the TypeScript codebase for the entire customer experience, including subscriptions, data rooms, distributions, capital calls, and the emerging LP wallet and investor portal. This is a hands-on, player-coach role. You'll spend most of your time growing the team, driving the roadmap with product and design partners, and setting the technical vision. You'll stay close enough to the code to unblock and support the team, but you typically won't write critical-path code. As the Product group grows, you'll help shape how it is organized. You'll report to the Head of Nova Engineering.\n\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn the results of a Nova Product team responsible for the product experience across subscriptions, data rooms, distributions, capital calls, and the LP wallet and portal.\nGrow the team from ~4 engineers to 5-7 and help shape the structure of the broader Product group as it scales.\nWork closely with Product, Design, stakeholders, and the Foundations engineering teams to make progress against the roadmap.\nSet a clear technical direction with the team's senior and staff engineers.\nMaintain a high standard of quality across workflows with high stakes and strict compliance requirements, where real money and investor identity are on the line.\nStay hands-on where it helps. Unblock the team and maintain enough technical context to ask good questions and make sound tradeoffs.\nYou Have\n2+ years of engineering management experience, including hiring, developing, and getting the best work from engineers.\nA record of shipping and scaling customer-facing products, ideally in complex domains where quality is critical. You care about the user experience and pay attention to the details.\nExperience building in an environment with high stakes and strict compliance requirements, where every detail matters. Experience with fintech, payments, or identity and KYC is a bonus.\nExperience with a modern TypeScript stack, or the ability to learn it quickly.\nGood startup judgment. You're comfortable with ambiguity and add enough process to help the team without over-building it.\nHow Success Will Be Measured\nYou've learned the team's systems and can discuss the full Nova product surface.\nNova's flagship workflows, including subscriptions, distributions, and capital calls, are consistently high quality and increasingly self-service. For example, 95%+ of distributions complete end-to-end with zero manual intervention.\nNew payments, wallet, and identity products ship on a clear, coherent architecture, and the product remains highly reliable as it scales.\nThe team is healthy and growing. You've hired toward 5-7 engineers, and the team is clear on its roadmap.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3348,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":2,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Financial Software & Embedded Finance","Custody & Fund Administration"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-24T20:31:11Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":76,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.85,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":52,"expected_fill_days":108,"reasons":["conf:0","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-16T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/angellist-engineering-manager-nova","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/angellist-engineering-manager-nova.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-16T18:26:29Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3521,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-17T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":34787},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=34787"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fangellist-engineering-manager-nova"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fangellist-engineering-manager-nova"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fangellist-engineering-manager-nova"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/angellist-engineering-manager-nova\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fangellist-engineering-manager-nova"}]}
