You will be responsible for the technical roadmap, engineering culture, and the quality of what ships. You will manage engineers, work closely with product and risk, and hold the bar for how we build. The problems are deep. The surface area is wide. This is not a maintenance job.\nWhy Frame:\nFrame is a compliance infrastructure company powering payments for complex, highly regulated industries. We enable businesses to move money with confidence by embedding compliance and payments into a single, intelligent platform. Our ambition is to become the infrastructure layer that regulated businesses rely on to operate, scale, and access services globally.\nAt Frame, how we build matters as much as what we build. We're headquartered in Los Angeles with a globally distributed team. We're committed to running an inclusive and accessible hiring process. If you need any adjustments along the way, let us know.\nWhat You'll Do:\nOwn the engineering organization including structure, hiring, performance standards, and culture.\nDrive technical roadmap and architecture decisions across the full FrameOS platform.\nBuild engineering processes that keep the team fast, focused, and accountable.\nOwn relationships with Product, Risk, Compliance, and Operations, ensuring engineering serves the business and the business understands engineering.\nHold a standard of craft including APIs that are obvious, systems that feel inevitable, and code that holds up.\n\nWhat We Require:\n7+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 3 in an engineering leadership role.\nExperience leading teams building financial infrastructure, payments, or compliance systems.\nStrong technical depth. You can get into the code when it matters.\nA clear point of view on how to build well, including abstractions, reliability, and developer experience.\nLow tolerance for artificial delay. You move teams forward and remove blockers before they compound.\nTrack record of recruiting and retaining strong engineers.\n\nYou'll Be Successful If:\nYou are someone who holds a high bar for craft and won't compromise it for speed, but won't compromise speed for craft either.\nYou can move from architecture review to recruiting to a 1:1 to a code review without losing momentum.\nYou build engineering organizations that ship quickly and consistently, and you remove blockers rather than absorbing them.\nYou have experience at a payment facilitator, processor, or regulated fintech.\nYou've scaled an engineering team through a growth phase without losing quality.\nYou have hands-on experience with Rails, Go, or TypeScript at scale.\nYou have familiarity with card network rules, ACH, KYC systems, or chargeback infrastructure.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2900,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Software","Fraud Detection","Operating Systems"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-29T01:52:22Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.277,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":102,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":260000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/frame-payments-engineering-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/frame-payments-engineering-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T23:21:56Z","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":35534,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"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":4397182},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4397182"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fframe-payments-engineering-manager"},{"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%2Fframe-payments-engineering-manager"},{"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%2Fframe-payments-engineering-manager"},{"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/frame-payments-engineering-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fframe-payments-engineering-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3433723}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"framepayments.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3433723},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
