The First Accounting Transformation Platform Powered by AI Agent
The Role
As Engineering Manager you will lead a technical team to design and scale backend systems while integrating AI capabilities mentoring engineers and driving technical excellence.
Summary Generated by Built In

FloQast is building the next generation of accounting automation powered by AI. We are looking for engineering leaders who believe that AI fundamentally changes how software is designed written and operated. This role is for technical leaders who still think like engineers.If your primary skill is running meetings managing Jira tickets and coordinating roadmaps this role will not be a good fit. If you enjoy debugging distributed systems reviewing architecture mentoring strong engineers and shipping production systems using AI-assisted development we would love to talk

Our teams are comprised of technical force multipliers who prioritize shipping over syncing leveraging advanced tools like Cursor and Claude Code to compress the distance between idea and production. Whether you are leading a team or architecting distributed services you will be building a world where intelligent agents and LLM reasoning handle the complexity of global finance. If you believe that AI is the ultimate leverage for high-performing engineers to solve the industry's hardest problems you belong here.

Location: San Jose CA OR Los Angeles office - 3 days per week on-site (hybrid)

What You'll Do:

    Lead a Highly Technical Team

    You will manage a small team of strong engineers and tech leads working on the core FloQast platform. Your role is to enable technical excellence and remove friction not simply coordinate delivery.

    You will:

    • Mentor Staff Engineers Tech Leads and Senior Engineers

    • Unblock complex technical problems

    • Drive strong engineering decisions across the team

    • Build and Scale Backend Systems

      FloQast operates a large-scale SaaS platform used by thousands of companies and millions of financial workflows.

      You will help the team design and operate:

      • Distributed backend services

      • Scalable data pipelines

      • Highly reliable production systems

      • APIs and services powering accounting automation

      • Build AI-Powered Product Capabilities

        FloQast is moving aggressively toward AI-native product development.

        Your team will build:

        • AI-driven workflow automation

        • Intelligent agents operating across accounting processes

        • Systems that integrate LLM reasoning with financial data models

        • Drive AI-First Development

          AI coding tools are not optional here. We expect engineering leaders to actively use tools such as Claude Code Cursor or similar AI systems to accelerate development and guide their teams in doing the same.

          You will help define how AI changes:

          • Software design

          • Code generation

          • Debugging

          • Testing

          • Refactoring

          • Raise the Technical Bar

            You will actively participate in:

            • Architecture reviews

            • System design discussions

            • Major code reviews

            • Technical mentorship

            • This is a technical leadership role not a coordination role.

What You'll Bring:

    You Have Built Real Systems

    • 8+ years of backend engineering experience

    • Experience operating large-scale SaaS platforms

    • Strong understanding of distributed systems APIs and data models

    • Comfortable debugging production systems

    • You Are Still Technical

      The best engineering managers we hire can still write code if needed and understand the systems their teams build. You should be comfortable:

      • Reviewing complex pull requests

      • Discussing architecture tradeoffs

      • Guiding engineers through difficult technical problems

      • You Understand AI-Assisted Development

        We expect engineering leaders to be AI-native builders. You should have experience using tools such as:

        • Claude

        • Cursor

        • Or similar AI coding environments to accelerate development.

        • Experience building the following is a strong plus:

          • AI agents

          • LLM-powered workflows

          • AI-assisted developer tooling

          • You Enable Strong Engineers

            Your success will be measured by how effective your engineers become. You should have experience:

            • Mentoring tech leads

            • Growing senior engineers

            • Removing technical blockers

            • Helping teams move faster without sacrificing quality

            • What Makes This Role Different

              Most engineering management roles focus on process and coordination. At FloQast we believe engineering managers must be technical force multipliers.

              You will help build:

              • AI-powered accounting automation

              • Agent-driven workflows

              • Large-scale financial software systems

              • ...while helping a strong team of engineers operate at a very high technical bar.
