Plata Card is hiring an Engineering Manager for our PyMe Product Origination team, focused on driving delivery, team growth, and execution quality.
The team owns the end-to-end lifecycle of credit product launches for legal entities — from the first product available to a verified business customer, through to the tools they use to manage their team and accounts. The scope spans both revenue-generating products and internal business banking features.
This is a hands-on role. You'll split your time between leading people (coaching, planning, stakeholder communication) and staying close to the technical work — contributing to architecture decisions, code reviews, and implementation when it matters.
If you want to shape how Plata brings credit and banking products to market — leading a team at the heart of B2B product origination — this role is for you.
Challenges that await you:
- Drive product launches: lead end-to-end delivery of credit line, acquiring, and internal product features
- Develop your people: provide regular feedback, unblock growth paths, and mentor engineers
- Strengthen processes: build and refine planning, decomposition, and delivery rituals that keep a mixed-discipline team moving fast without burning out
- Foster team health: maintain a sustainable, non-burnout culture through clear prioritization, transparent communication, and consistent support
- Own technical quality: shape the architecture of backend services in Go, validate technical solutions, and stay close enough to the codebase to make informed decisions
What makes you a great fit:
- 1+ year managing engineering teams in fast-paced environments
- Proven skills in hiring, performance management, delivery ownership, and cross-functional collaboration
- 4+ years of Go development experience — enough to participate in architectural discussions and validate the team's technical decisions
- Experience building and improving development processes — planning, decomposition, retrospectives, and quality gates
- Navigating stakeholder relationships with confidence — articulating the team's position clearly and constructively, even when priorities conflict.
Our ways of working:
- Innovative Spirit: A commitment to creativity and groundbreaking solutions
- Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
- Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
- Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
- High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who date to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances
Our benefits:
- Relocation support to one of our hubs — Cyprus, Serbia, Georgia, Spain— with assistance for the employee and their family
- Flexible work from one of our offices or remote
- Healthcare Coverage
- Education Budget: Language lessons, professional training and certifications
- Wellness Budget: Mental health and fitness activity reimbursement
- Vacation policy: 20 days of annual leave and paid sick leave
