This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2132 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £55,000, and INVESTENGINE (UK) LIMITED is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 1137 (Information technology directors, Director-level title and strategic scope, but no board-level remit). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
About InvestEngine
InvestEngine is a fast-growing fintech company based in London, on a mission to make ETF investing simple and accessible. Over 150,000 clients trust us with more than £3 billion in assets under management — and we’re just getting started.
We’ve been featured in MoneyWeek, Finder, and Forbes, and we’re scaling quickly with ambitious plans for both our product and engineering organization.
About the Role
We’re looking for two Senior Engineering Managers to help build a stronger management layer in engineering and support multiple product teams across InvestEngine.
This is a high-impact leadership role focused on engineering management, delivery, team performance, and organizational scaling. You’ll work closely with the CTO, CPO, and multiple Team Leads reporting to you to help teams operate effectively, deliver business impact, and scale sustainably as the company grows.
One role will focus more on customer-facing product teams, while the second role will work more closely with infrastructure and operational teams, including Payments, Trading, Pension, and Back Office systems.
While this role is less hands-on than a traditional Tech Lead position, a strong engineering background and technical judgment are still important.
What You’ll Do
Manage and support multiple engineering teams and Team Leads
Improve delivery processes, team performance, and engineering effectiveness
Help scale engineering processes and organizational structure
Drive operational and process improvements across teams
Support architectural discussions and long-term technical strategy
Mentor engineers and engineering leaders
Help improve planning, communication, and cross-team collaboration
Contribute to engineering culture and organizational growth
What We’re Looking For
Strong engineering management experience leading multiple teams or Team Leads
Previous software engineering background (backend or full-stack preferred)
Experience working in product companies rather than pure outsourcing environments
Experience scaling teams, processes, and engineering organizations
Experience building engineering processes and delivery practices
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
Ability to operate in ambiguity and drive initiatives independently
Collaborative leadership style with strong mentoring mindset
English level С1
Bonus if you have
Experience in fintech or regulated industries
Experience in high-growth product companies
Experience working with metrics and operational improvements
How We Work
We’re a lean, collaborative engineering organization where managers and engineers have real influence on product direction, engineering culture, and technical decisions.
We care about ownership, pragmatism, continuous improvement, and building scalable systems and teams — without unnecessary bureaucracy.
What We Offer
Direct impact on product and engineering growth
Opportunity to shape a scaling engineering organization
Remote-first and flexible working environment
High level of ownership and autonomy
Modern tech environment and experienced engineering teams
Unlimited vacation policy
Hiring Process
Intro call with our Talent team
Technical interview with the Backend team
Gamified cognitive assessment to understand how you think and problem-solve
Final conversation with our CTO
