Engineering Manager, App Ecosystem

At Possible, we create financial technology products that are built to benefit our customers’ economic mobility. As a Public Benefit Corporation, it’s not only our mission but our responsibility to succeed. We grow our team accordingly—through a selective process that prioritizes candidate and employee experience alike.
Job Description
Team Introduction: The App Ecosystem team is the foundation of Possible Finance's mobile experience. We own the React Native platform, build/test/release infrastructure, Expo integration, and every shared surface in the app — from authentication and account settings to the multi-product dashboard and core component library. We're a small, high-leverage platform team that makes every product team faster and every feature more reliable.
The Role & Impact: You'll lead a team of 5-7 engineers who own the mobile platform and shared app experience at a consumer fintech company that's evolving from a single product to a multi-product platform. This is equal parts platform engineering and product delivery: you'll drive the technical architecture for shared services, composable frontend patterns, and an AI-first developer experience, while partnering closely with a Principal PM who owns the multi-product strategy. You'll shape the technical direction of our mobile platform — driving architecture decision-making, improving developer experience, and building the foundation that every product team ships on.
What You'll Bring:
- Experience managing a team of software engineers, with a track record of retaining and developing talent
- Technical fluency in frontend/mobile — you can drive architecture decisions, evaluate tradeoffs in platform design, and hold a strong technical point of view in React Native or comparable mobile frameworks
- A bias toward shaping direction, not waiting for it — you'll partner with product and engineering leadership to define your team's roadmap from a blank page
- Active use of AI tools in your engineering workflow, with experience driving AI adoption across a team
- Experience operating as a platform team that serves multiple product teams — you know how to balance platform investment, shared experience quality, and product team velocity
- Experience building new platform capabilities from scratch alongside a senior product partner
Cultural Values Highlight:
- Act with Ownership — You come to the table with solutions and take responsibility for outcomes. You think long-term about platform health, not just this sprint's deliverables.
- To Lead is to Serve — You unblock your team, develop your people, and take on the hard problems so others can move faster.
- Scientific Approach — You make decisions based on evidence and first principles, not convention. You experiment, measure, and course-correct.
This is a hybrid position with a shared in-office schedule of Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Our office is centrally located in downtown Seattle.
The compensation range for this role is $197,800 to $215,000. In addition to base salary, we offer significant stock options, comprehensive benefits, a bonus plan, commuter benefits, and an excellent office space with complimentary drinks and food.
