Engineering Lead II

About the role

We are seeking an Engineering Lead II to lead three customer-facing engineering teams across Onboarding & Activation, Mobile, and Office Productivity. These teams are responsible for how customers discover, adopt, access, and engage with 9fin across multiple surfaces and workflows. Together they own critical parts of the customer journey including onboarding, permissions and entitlements, activation, notifications, discovery, mobile experiences, and productivity tooling such as Microsoft Office integrations. You will lead multiple engineering pods (circa 7 engineers total), each with its own product area, roadmap, and technical challenges, while ensuring they operate as a connected ecosystem rather than independent products. Success in this role requires strong organisational leadership, technical depth, and the ability to identify opportunities for shared platforms, reusable services, and common architectural patterns across teams. This role is ideal for a highly technical engineering leader who enjoys operating across multiple domains, helping teams solve complex architectural challenges, and creating alignment between product strategy, customer needs, and engineering execution.

• Partner with Product and Design to identify opportunities where mobile, AI, notifications, and productivity tools can create meaningful customer value.
• Guide architectural decisions across mobile applications, Backend-for-Frontend services, Office integrations, and workflow automation capabilities.
• Work closely with AI and Search teams to bring AI-native experiences into customer workflows, including search, recommendations, and intelligent productivity features.
• Collaborate with Platform, Data, Identity, Onboarding, Activation, and Permissions teams to ensure seamless customer experiences across products.
• Drive engineering excellence while maintaining a strong focus on customer outcomes, adoption, engagement, and retention.
• Help establish success metrics and use product analytics, customer feedback, and business outcomes to inform prioritisation and investment decisions.
• Hire, onboard, and develop exceptional engineering talent as these micro teams scale in future
• Stay engaged with technical design and architecture reviews while empowering engineers to take ownership of implementation details.
• Balance short-term product delivery with long-term platform investments that enable future innovation.
• About You
• This role will be a great fit if you:
• Have experience leading high-performing product engineering teams and delivering customer-facing products at scale.
• Bring a strong technical background and remain comfortable discussing architecture, system design, API integrations, and modern application development.
• Have experience building or leading teams responsible for mobile applications, productivity tooling, desktop integrations, or workflow-centric products.
• Understand the challenges of API-first architectures and integrating multiple platform services into cohesive customer experiences.
• Have experience delivering AI-powered product experiences and understand how AI can be embedded into real user workflows.
• Are deeply product-minded and can translate customer problems, business goals, and technical constraints into effective solutions.
