Millions of people across Europe want better ways to build long-term wealth, but traditional investing often feels complex or out of reach.

Mintos is solving that. We've built a platform that makes investing in income-generating assets simple, transparent, and accessible. And we're expanding fast.

As our Engineering Manager, you'll scale and and help us maintain high-performing engineering function as we grow to millions of investors.

If this is the kind of problem you want to solve, let's talk.

What you'll do
As our Engineering Manager, you'll solve the challenge of scaling and maintaining a high-performing engineering organisation in a regulated fintech environment. Your focus will be people leadership and organisational capacity management, which means building and developing engineering teams, allocating engineers effectively across delivery initiatives, and establishing scalable people management practices across the pillar.

This role reports to the CTO and is a key hire for the newly restructured engineering organization.

You will:

• Own the full people management lifecycle for 20–30 engineers across backend, frontend, QA, and test automation disciplines

• Assemble and recompose cross-functional delivery teams based on business priorities and organisational capacity

• Lead hiring across the pillar: designing interview processes, calibrating hiring standards, and making final hiring decisions

• Allocate engineering capacity across multiple competing priorities while balancing delivery needs and individual growth

• Partner with Tech Leads on technical strategy discussions while supporting their ownership of tactical technical decisions

• Drive performance review cycles by gathering and calibrating feedback from technical leaders and delivering clear development guidance
