Engineering Manager – Product Engineering / AI Products

Banking is being reimagined—and customers expect every interaction to be easy, personal, and instant.

We are building a universal banking assistant that millions of U.S. consumers can use to transact across all financial institutions and, over time, autonomously drive their financial goals. Powered by our proprietary BankGPT platform, this assistant is positioned to displace age-old legacy systems within financial institutions and own the end-to-end CX stack, unlocking a $200B opportunity and potentially replacing multiple publicly traded companies.

Ultimately, our mission is to drive financial well-being for millions of consumers.

With over two-thirds of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, 50% holding less than $500 in savings, and only 17% financially literate, we aim to put financial well-being on autopilot to help solve this problem.

About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager to lead a Bengaluru-based product engineering team responsible for delivering AI-powered banking products across voice, chat, and digital channels.

This role is part of our India offshore development team and requires close partnership with US-based product, engineering, AI, customer, and leadership teams. You will be responsible for driving execution, technical quality, delivery predictability, and engineering ownership from the Bengaluru team.

This is not a pure people-management role. We need an engineering leader who can stay close to architecture, code quality, debugging, production reliability, and team execution.

What You’ll Own

Lead and grow a high-performing Bengaluru engineering team.

Drive execution across product features, backend services, integrations, platform improvements, and reliability initiatives.

Partner with US stakeholders to clarify priorities, manage dependencies, and deliver with predictability.

Stay involved in architecture reviews, code reviews, technical tradeoffs, debugging, and production issue resolution.

Ensure systems are scalable, secure, observable, maintainable, and production-ready.

Build a culture of ownership, engineering discipline, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Mentor engineers, senior engineers, and tech leads to improve technical depth and execution maturity.

What You’ll Do

Lead Product Engineering Execution

Convert product and customer priorities into clear engineering plans.

Manage sprint execution, estimation, release readiness, risk tracking, and delivery communication.

Ensure the offshore team operates with clarity, urgency, and accountability.

Identify blockers early and drive resolution across teams.

Stay Hands-On Technically

Review architecture, APIs, service design, data flows, and integration patterns.

Guide engineers on scalable design, clean implementation, testing, and maintainability.

Help debug complex backend, performance, reliability, and production issues.

Raise the quality bar through strong technical judgment and practical engineering standar
