A universe of opportunities. Open to you.

Payoneer’s mission is to empower anyone, anywhere to participate and succeed in the global economy. If our mission connects with your values, if you revel in solving complex challenges, and if you want to continuously advance your career, come realize your potential at Payoneer! 

 

Life at Payoneer is a global community, where you’ll work with colleagues all over the world, in a hybrid or remote work frame. As an equal opportunity employer, the only things that matter to us are your skills, your drive, and your desire to have a positive impact on others.

 

As part of Payoneer, the Merchant Services team is an internationally distributed group with a presence across the globe. We’re looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to join our Billing and Development Tooling teams at Payoneer Merchant Services.   We’re an internationally distributed team, hiring people to work from home - though we have an office in Germany acting as the Merchant Services hub for occasional meetups.

 

What’s the job?

  • You’ll be working across two small teams - Billing, and Development Tooling.
  • The Billing team is one of our cross-functional Product-Tech teams, with Software Engineers, Product Managers and more, collaborating to build, maintain and manage the software services that handle billing and settlement for our merchants.
  • The Development tooling (DevTools) team is a team of engineers tasked with enabling our Engineering teams to ship user-facing features faster.
  • Slack is our “office”, we talk via Zoom and Teams, our code lives in GitHub, our tasks in Jira and our internal documentation in Confluence.

 

Things you'll do:

  • Be the line-manager for individual Engineers on the teams, responsible for their career development, goals, objectives, bonuses etc.
  • Be responsible for the performance and delivery of the team
  • Ensure the team is balancing their time commitments appropriately, between maintenance and feature development, product-driven initiatives, engineering-driven initiatives, self-development, and more
  • Run and facilitate the team’s delivery process, soliciting input from Product Owners, Tech Leads, Architects and more
  • Be the primary contact point for the team

Have you done this kind of stuff?

  • Good command of spoken and written English, our chosen language of communication.
  • Previous people-management experience. Right now we’re not in a position to take people new to management.
  • Previous delivery or project management experience, and an understanding of what makes a great team
  • Good communication skills.
  • An understanding of building software for the internet - we don’t expect you to be or have been any kind of software engineer, but we need you to have been part of the overall process and know what it’s like.

 

Does this sound like you?

These aren’t requirements, just things we’d particularly like to see - please don’t let anything here put you off applying:

  • You’ve read Turn The Ship Around, Radical Candor, The Culture Map, and/or Managing Humans
  • You have experience leading distributed teams
  • You have payments / financial services experience
  • Strong experience leading cross-team agile delivery processes

 

What we offer: 

  • Annual fitness and Work From Home Allowance
  • Employee Gifts & Social events
  • Learning and development opportunities

What next?

If you’d like to apply, please send us your CV and a short cover letter.

Please do include a cover letter - even if it’s just a few short sentences on how you see us working together. Written communication is important to us, and we love reading about your achievements in cover letters!
