About this role

Do you want to shape the future of value transfer?At Elliptic, we're solving problems that have never been solved before.

Our engineering platform sits at the heart of everything we do, and we're growing fast.

We're hiring multiple Engineering Managers to lead teams across three tracks as we scale. This is a rare opportunity to join at a genuine inflection point, with the autonomy to build teams and working cultures you're proud of.

Our Open positions:DevOps and Platform You'll lead the engineers responsible for the reliability, scalability, and developer experience of Elliptic's platform. An infrastructure or platform engineering background will help you earn trust quickly and make good technical judgement calls alongside your team.

The OpportunityElliptic's engineering organisation has grown significantly and is continuing to scale. Engineering Managers are the core of our culture and the people we trust to shape how our teams operate and how our engineers grow. We're looking for the right individuals to take genuine ownership of that, bringing their own experience and judgement to a set of real, unsolved challenges.

What You'll DoPeople and growth

Run regular 1-1s and performance reviews, giving your engineers personalised, honest feedback

Understand each person's career goals and actively help them pursue them

Build a healthy team culture where expectations are clear, people feel safe, and everyone can contribute fully

Own hiring for your team, from identifying gaps through to making decisions

Build onboarding plans that set new starters up properly, not just on paper

Team health and ways of working

Partner closely with your Tech Leads, who own delivery planning and execution, to ensure teams are well set up to hit their goals

Stay close enough to the work to represent your teams confidently across the business, and keep the Head of Applications informed on progress and blockers

What We're Looking ForYou'll be a strong fit if you:

Have 2-6 years of experience managing engineers

Have a technical background in the relevant track (Platform and DevOps)

Build trust quickly and lead through empowerment rather than control

Are honest, direct, and care deeply about the people you work with

Celebrate failure as a learning opportunity and share those learnings openly

Bonus points if you:
