Engineering Manager 🇪🇺

Pennylane is building the financial OS (Operating System) for European SMEs. A single source of truth for financial data, used on one side by entrepreneurs to run their business (invoicing and getting paid, paying suppliers and expense management, piloting cash and profitability) and on the other side by their accountant for bookkeeping and fiscal declarations. Saving time to all entrepreneurs and accountants, helping them to make the right decisions and enabling 3rd parties to offer added-value personalised financial services. We’ve launched in France and will expand to other markets in Continental Europe in the coming years. Our commercial website is thus in French only but the code is obviously documented in English and our tech team speaks English. We’re product-led, growing fast, backed by strong investors and are starting to hire software engineers anywhere in Europe, to join our experienced remote-first engineering team. 👪 Team and context The tech team is divided into more than 35 squads, each squad being led by an Engineering Manager working with a PM and a Product Designer and composed of 5 to 8 developers (Frontend, Backend and Full stack). As we scale and increase the number of Squads, we are looking for Engineering Managers to help us drive and mentor those squads. Pennylane is based in Paris but our tech team is remote-first. You can work from anywhere in Europe. The team meets in Paris a few days every two months. 🎯Your missions - Manage a team of 5 to 8 Software Engineers - Keeping a mix between individual contribution and management (but that's something which can vary depending of your expectations) - Collaborate with the product manager to make sure our standards in terms of quality and efficiency are respected but also that there is a good mood and that everybody is fulfilled in their job - Identify our developers' key strengths and areas of improvement to help them grow - Collaborate with the other Senior Engineering Managers and Engineering M
