Department: HQ
We are growing the Financial Assistant team at Plata, building intelligent systems that support users in managing their finances, understanding spending, and interacting with financial products in a simple and intuitive way. This team plays a key role in improving customer experience, engagement, and the overall value of our core products.
As an Engineering Manager, you will lead a cross-functional team and own day-to-day delivery, planning, prioritization, and close collaboration with Product, Data, and business teams. You’ll help the team move fast in early and evolving stages, turning product ideas into scalable, reliable features through short feedback loops and rapid iteration.
We’re looking for a hands-on Engineering Manager with a strong technical background and clear communication skills, who stays close to the team, sets a modern engineering pace, and helps translate product and AI-driven concepts into reliable production solutions as the system grows.
Challenges that await you:

- Own and drive the development of an AI-powered product from concept to production
- Ensure strong team performance and reliable, on-time delivery aligned with product and business goals
- Partner closely with Product, Data, and AI teams to build impactful, user-centric solutions
- Tackle complex technical and product challenges while maintaining high engineering quality standards
- Shape the architecture, design, and implementation of scalable backend services and integrations
What makes you a great fit:
- 3+ years of experience leading engineering teams (hiring, development, performance, and delivery management)
- Proven experience leading teams in AI, ML, or data-driven engineering environments
- Strong technical background with hands-on development experience and the ability to validate technical decisions
- Experience building AI-powered, user-facing products (e.g., assistants, recommendations, or intelligent features) where interaction logic and product paradigms are still evolving
- Ability to translate ambiguous product requirements into clear technical solutions and priorities, especially for AI-driven features like a Financial Assistant
- Strong cross-team communication skills and ability to collaborate with Product, Data, AI, and business stakeholders
- English proficiency at B1 level or higher for effective collaboration with an international team
Our ways of working:
- Innovative Spirit: A commitment to creativity and groundbreaking solutions
- Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
- Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
- Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
- High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who date to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances
Our benefits:
- Relocation support to one of our hubs — Cyprus, Serbia, Spain, Georgia — with assistance for the employee and their family
