🏢 About Ledgy
About the Role
As a hands-on Engineering Manager of our developer platform and infrastructure at Ledgy, you'll lead the team that makes everything else possible - the infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, developer tooling, security posture, and platform capabilities that thousands of employees worldwide depend on to experience equity ownership. You'll lead a team of ~5 engineers and own the foundation for Ledgy's next chapter: fast and reliable pipelines, solid infrastructure, and a developer experience that keeps scaling as the majority of our engineering work becomes AI-assisted.
This is a good fit if you see DevOps, CI/CD, and platform engineering as one of the highest-leverage investments a company can make. To thrive you will need depth in developer experience and infrastructure, plus genuine curiosity about how agents are changing the way software is built. You'll also partner closely with our CISO to shape Ledgy's security strategy, as enterprise customers in a regulated market demand rigorous security practices. You'll report directly to the Head of Engineering and play a key role in scaling our platform and our engineering culture.
🎯 The Role
You'll Thrive in This Role If You
Bring deep experience in CI/CD, DevOps, and infrastructure - and clear opinions about how to make pipelines fast, reliable, and pleasant to work with
Have a strong vision for what great developer experience looks like, and the craft to deliver it
Are at home in application code as well as infrastructure - our stack is TypeScript end to end, and platform initiatives such as our data layer live inside the product codebase
Are excited about building systems that scale: observability, deployment automation, developer experience, and infrastructure-as-code
Have a security-minded approach to platform engineering - you understand what it means to run production systems holding sensitive financial data, and you want to help evolve that model as more of the software lifecycle becomes automated
Love developing people, watching engineers grow and tackle increasingly sophisticated challenges
Want to remain hands-on - you're comfortable building with Terraform, debugging pipelines, and shipping improvements yourself
Are curious about AI-assisted development and want to grow in that space - we're looking for strong platform engineers who want to build for this new reality, not for AI specialists
Have 3+ years experience in Engineering Management and 6+ years as a Software Engineer, with meaningful time spent in platform, infrastructure, or DevOps roles
✅ Key Responsibilities
Team Leadership: Leading a team of platform engineers, setting technical direction, and creating an environment where people do the best work of their careers.
Platform Readiness for Automation: Extending the platform so automated and AI-assisted workflows are safe by default - sandbox and dry-run environments, clear identity and access models, audit trails that show who or what changed production, and interfaces that let modern tooling work with our systems. This is a space to grow into, not a prerequisite.
CI/CD & Developer Experience: Our build and deployment pipelines - making them fast, reliable, and low-friction. The bar: any contributor can open a PR, get it reviewed, and ship it with confidence, and that path keeps holding as automated and AI-assisted contributions grow in volume.
Infrastructure & Observability: Our GCP infrastructure, Terraform configuration, monitoring, and alerting. You'll set SLOs and make sure we can see and explain what's happening in production.
Security Partnership: Working alongside our CISO to define and execute Ledgy's security strategy. This means helping prioritise what matters most for a regulated fintech serving enterprise clients: supply chain security, access controls, secrets management, and the newer questions raised by automated tooling in production. You'll be the engineering leader who turns security strategy into implemented reality.
In-App Platform Initiatives: At the moment, the team’s ownership doesn't stop at the infrastructure boundary. Some of our highest-leverage work lives inside the product codebase - our TypeScript data layer, shared abstractions, and cross-cutting data migrations that every product team builds on.
📌 Required Qualifications
3+ years experience in Engineering Management
6+ years as a Software Engineer
Meaningful time spent in platform, infrastructure, or DevOps roles
Deep experience in CI/CD, DevOps, and infrastructure
