Job Description

Head of Engineering

Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY (Onsite, 5 days/week)

At Thrively , we help fast-growing, venture-backed companies hire exceptional engineering talent. We're excited to be partnering with an innovative fintech client that’s transforming how self-employed professionals build wealth through smarter tax strategies and modern investment tools.

Backed by strong revenue and product traction—including $2M+ in ARR and $100M+ in assets on platform —this company is scaling quickly. They’re now looking for a Head of Engineering to lead their high-performing, Brooklyn-based engineering team.

About the Role

This is a hands-on leadership role for a player-coach —someone who can shape technical strategy, lead and grow a team, and roll up their sleeves to ship high-quality code. You'll work closely with the founding team to evolve the product across tax strategy, investment infrastructure, and financial education.

This is a fully onsite position in Williamsburg, Brooklyn , working in person with a tight-knit product and engineering team.

In This Role, You’ll:

  • Lead and mentor the engineering team while staying actively involved in coding
  • Help shape architectural direction as the platform scales
  • Collaborate with product leadership to drive roadmap and delivery
  • Recruit and onboard top engineering talent as the team grows
  • Foster a strong culture of technical excellence and ownership

You’ll Thrive Here If You:

  • Have past startup experience leading and scaling engineering teams
  • Are excited by the pace and impact of early-stage fintech
  • Enjoy both people and technical leadership
  • Are proactive, collaborative, and energized by solving complex problems

Our Client’s Tech Stack:

  • Languages: TypeScript, Python
  • Frontend: Next.js, React, Chakra UI
  • Backend: NestJS, Django, Postgres, Memcached
  • Infrastructure: AWS (EKS, SQS, SNS, Lambda)

Why This Role?

This is a rare opportunity to take on a defining leadership role at a fintech company with meaningful traction and a clear path to scale. You'll work alongside product-obsessed founders and a mission-driven team tackling some of the most important challenges in personal finance.
