At Ledgy, we're on a mission to make Europe a powerhouse of entrepreneurship by building a modern, tech-driven equity management and financial reporting platform for private and public companies. In 2025, we aim to be the leading provider for European IPOs and reporting for share-based payments. We are a value-based company with a core focus on being humble, transparent, ambitious and impactful, all in order to delivery the best experience for our customers and end users.
We are proud to partner with some of the world's leading investors. New Enterprise Associates led our $22m Series B round in 2022, with Philip Chopin joining Sequoia's Luciana Lixandru on our board.
We were founded in Switzerland in 2017 and today we operate globally from offices in Zurich and London. We encourage diversity and are an international team coming from 26 different countries and speaking 25 different languages.
About the Role:
As a hands-on Engineering Manager at Ledgy, you will lead a world-class team of diverse engineers that solves the difficult problems of our customers—making it as easy as possible for them to harness the power of equity. You will be responsible for managing a team of 4-6 reports, working alongside them in a hands-on role as a partial IC, as well as defining the roadmap with the product manager and designer, and leading the engineering team rituals of the team. This position reports directly to the Head of Engineering. We're looking for someone ideally in the range of 8-12 years of experience, but will consider candidates outside of this range.
In the first 30 days:
* Be paired with an onboarding buddy who will help to introduce you to Ledgy, equity and anything else

* Review 10 PRs to understand code quality standards and team practices, and make small contributions to get hands-on experience with the development process
* Transition management of your first direct report(s) from another engineering manager
* Get to know the PD leadership team: our CTO, our Head of Engineering, Head of Product, and our Engineering Managers and the rest of the product development team.
* Be onboarded into engineering leadership team and get introduced to our processes
In the first 3 months:
* You'll have an understanding of Ledgy as a product and the roadmap for the next quarters
* Work alongside your team to keep velocity and quality high, unblocking the team on PR reviews, coordinating work, taking over tickets yourself and getting them shipped
* Establish a rapport with your reports and coach them in regular 1:1s
* Are involved in regular roadmap and priority reviews across PD, and are definining the roadmap of your team in collaboration with Product and Design
* Are becoming a key voice in bigger architectural decisions
* Taking an active role in hiring, possibly leading one role as a hiring manager
In the first 6 to 12 months:
* Are a respected technical leader in your team, supporting everyone to perform at their best
* Guide and enable your team reports in their personal development
* Perform performance reviews with your reports (2x a year)
* Be an owner for leadership projects within engineering and product development
* Be a trusted partner for product management and design
Interview Process:
* CV Review: we review your resume to see if we might be a good fit
* Getting to know you: 30 min chat with someone from our people team to talk about your experience and to answer questions about the role
* Live Coding Interview
* System Design Interview
* Mock 1:1: 45 minute mock 1:1 with one of our engineers.
* Culture Interview: A chance to meet one of our founders for a 30 minute chat about Ledgy's mission and values
