## Description

At Prospa, we exist to unleash the potential of small business. We are building the future of small business and simplifying cashflow by building a leading platform that helps customers make payments, fund growth and reduce admin.

As our Engineering Manager, you’ll lead and grow a team of software engineers while staying close to the technology. You’ll bring together people leadership, delivery and technical expertise to help your team solve meaningful customer problems and deliver high-quality outcomes at pace.

## Why You'll Love This Role

This is a hands-on leadership opportunity for an engineering leader who enjoys coaching experienced engineers without stepping away from technology. You’ll lead a team of engineers, partner closely with Product and technical leadership, and help shape how AI is embedded into the way the team builds and delivers.

You’ll join a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve, teams own their delivery and AI is becoming an increasingly important part of how engineering problems are solved.

## What You'll Be Doing

- Lead, coach and grow a talented engineering team, helping people play to their strengths and develop their technical and professional capability.

- Own delivery with your team, partnering with Product Managers and Designers to turn business needs into clear technical plans and great customer outcomes.

- Stay technically close to the work, supporting strong engineering practices across design, implementation, quality and code review.

- Drive an AI-native engineering mindset, embedding tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot or Claude Code safely and responsibly across the delivery lifecycle.

- Build your team’s AI capability through coaching, experimentation and knowledge sharing, while looking at the impact AI has on productivity and quality.

- Navigate technical and delivery trade-offs, helping Product and engineering stakeholders balance quality, scope, timelines and changing priorities.

## What You'll Bring

- 5+ years' software development experience, including at least 1 year managing engineers in a product or technology environment.

- Strong technical knowledge across modern architecture, including microservices, event-driven or message-based systems, CQRS and event sourcing.

- Experience with Agile delivery, CI/CD and Git-based code review and release practices, plus cloud development in AWS or Azure.

- Hands-on experience using AI coding tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot or Claude Code as part of your day-to-day engineering work.

- Experience with .NET and/or React with TypeScript, along with an understanding of privacy and information security best practice.

- A genuine passion for people leadership, coaching and continuous learning, combined with the technical confidence to stay close to engineering while empowering your team and technical leaders.

## What we offer:

- Growth: There's something for everyone including learning days, a learning allowance, leadership programs, CliftonStrengths workshops, digital learning, and biannual companywide learning weeks.

- Wellbeing: Think fitness initiatives, seasonal programs (including flu shots, massages, skin checks, wellness classes), additional "Me Days" and access to holistic EAP coaching.

- Lifestyle: Find your fit with flexible working options, top-notch office facilities and diverse remote/travel work options. You can also purchase additional leave and take up to 18 weeks paid parental leave.

- Impact: Join a business that cares and is recertified as carbon neutral. And you can tap into volunteer days, our partnership with Kiva and join a range of employee resource groups.

## Why Prospa?

We're proud to be a certified Great Place to Work and recognised as a Best Workplace for Women, Best Workplace in Technology, and Best Workplace in Australia. We embrace diversity in people and ideas, fostering a collaborative, inclusive, and respectful environment where we celebrate who you naturally are.
