Our people are the heart of everything we do, driving our mission forward with commitment, empathy, and creativity. Join us on our mission to empower confident, fraud-free commerce by helping online retailers provide superior customer experiences and eliminate fraud. Learn about our company values here!\nRole Overview\nSignifyd uses the latest in AI and machine learning technology to give our ecommerce customers the confidence they need to do business free from fears of fraud and other forms of ecommerce abuse. In order to do this we have to continually innovate and nowhere is this more important than in our modeling space. The modeling group creates, deploys and runs the models and services that keep us a step ahead and right now we need an engineering manager to help us build our next generation technology. The successful candidate will lead a team of engineers who will partner with our AI group and engineering as a whole to help bring ideas from conception to production, while ensuring the systems we already have continue to run smoothly. It’s a role for someone who can operate comfortably on both sides of the technical/business line, contributing to technical discussions but people-focused enough to build the relationships between engineering, our AI lab, product and our risk management organization.\nYou will work daily with data scientists, machine learning engineers, product owners and other cross-functional stakeholders whose work depends on your team's systems. Success means being a trusted translator and partner across all of these groups, not just a manager of your own team's output.\nYour core responsibilities are delivery, fostering innovation and people leadership. How hands-on you get as part of that is up to you but you will be expected to drive closure on technical decisions and implementation. \nKey Responsibilities (outcome and accountability)\n1. Team Leadership & Growth\nManage, coach and grow a team of engineers, providing regular feedback, career development while ensuring performance remains high.\nBuild a healthy team culture with clear ownership, sustainable pace and high standards for quality and craftsmanship.\nRecruit and onboard new engineers as needed and develop technical leadership within the team.\n2. Stakeholder & Relationship Management\nManage competing priorities and expectations across multiple stakeholder groups, building trust through fostering mutual understanding, delivering consistently and communicating transparently.\nRepresent the team's roadmap, capacity and risks in cross-functional planning and prioritization discussions.\n3. Technical Engagement & Decision-Making\nDrive technical discussions and design reviews, with enough depth to understand the implications of key decisions on reliability, scalability and production outcomes.\nPartner with engineers on architecture and design choices, asking the right questions rather than dictating solutions.\nEnsure the team's technical decisions are well understood by, and defensible to, other stakeholders.\n4. AI-Enabled Ways of Working\nModel and champion effective use of AI tools across the team's day-to-day work, including AI-assisted research, administrative workflows, and code generation.\nHelp the team develop good judgment about how to balance the productivity gains AI can bring against the risks it introduces.\nContinuously look for ways AI tooling can improve team efficiency, code quality, and decision-making, and share what's working with peers.\nManage effectively through the major changes AI is bringing to the industry.\n5. Delivery & Operational Rigor\nOwn delivery of the team's roadmap balancing feature work, technical debt and reliability commitments.\nEstablish and maintain appropriate quality, testing and monitoring practices.\nProvide clear, proactive communication on progress, risks and blockers to stakeholders and leadership.\nDefine metrics as needed and develop an understanding of why we did or didn’t hit our targets.\nQualifications & Skills (experience / depth)\nExperience\n5+ years working as a software engineer. Some of that experience should be in the ML sphere.\nThis should not be your first time managing and we’d prefer at least 4 years of experience managing engineers directly in an ML focused domain. \nTechnical & AI Fluency\nComfortable engaging in technical discussions on architecture, data flows, and system design. \nDemonstrable experience using AI tools in a professional capacity for research, administration and code generation with a clear point of view on how to use them responsibly and cost-effectively.\nStrong knowledge of software development best practices, cloud computing platforms, big data technologies, MLOps toolkits, and SLO-driven reliability management.\nExperience working with at least one of Databricks, Spark, Airflow, Vertex and the GCP technology stack in general is preferred. \nStakeholder Management & Communication\nStrong track record managing relationships with a diverse set of technical and non-technical stakeholders.\nAbility to communicate clearly across audiences and influence without authority.\nComfortable navigating competing priorities and pushing back constructively when needed.\nLeadership\nGenuine care for engineer growth and development, with experience giving structured feedback and building career paths.\nAbility to build trust and psychological safety within the team while holding a high bar for output and accountability.\nBenefits in our US offices:\nDiscretionary Time Off Policy (Unlimited!)\n401K Match\nStock Options\nAnnual Performance Bonus or Commissions\nPaid Parental Leave (12 weeks)\nOn-Demand Therapy for all employees & their dependents\nDedicated learning budget through Learnerbly\nHealth Insurance\nDental Insurance\nVision Insurance\nFlexible Spending Account (FSA)\nShort Term and Long Term Disability Insurance\nLife Insurance\nCompany Social Events\nSignifyd Swag\nCompensation: \nIn the United States, each work location is assigned a specific pay zone, which determines the salary range for a given position.
