About The Role

As our business expands, the number of engineers is also rapidly increasing. In this context, there are still areas where we are immature as an organization and where we have not yet caught up with the construction of systems. As more and more products and projects are developed, there are cases where optimal engineering management is not possible.WealthPark is looking for an Engineering Manager who can take on the challenge of creating a place where engineers can be more active. Engineering managers commit to building organizational structures, systems and solving organizational issues, creating opportunities for engineers to be more active, and contributing to the execution of engineering, products, and business.

– Unit and definition of cross functional team will vary depending on the organization and business situation. Domain, project, product, and so on. While communicating with VPs, PMs, Agile Coach, and sometimes with the engineering organization, we think about the best structure and implement it continuously.
