Description
  • Lead the Verification Squad as its engineering leader, creating focus and momentum by removing bottlenecks, managing cross-team dependencies, and helping engineers navigate complexity across legacy systems and evolving processes.
  • Partner closely with Product, Compliance, and Operations to translate complex cross-market KYC and KYB requirements into clear engineering outcomes, identifying buildability considerations and regulatory risks early.
  • Drive the technical and organisational improvements that strengthen the squad over time, reducing legacy overhead, improving tooling, and fostering greater shared ownership and sustainable delivery practices.
  • Shape roadmap priorities alongside the PM, ensuring trade-offs are well understood and that compliance requirements and AI-influenced features are properly accounted for.
  • Maintain high standards for how verification systems are built and operated, ensuring flows are observable, failures are controlled, and AI-driven components meet the same bar for reliability, traceability, and auditability as any other part of the system
  • Develop engineers with intention through regular 1:1s, direct feedback, and deliberate stretch opportunities, building a team with strong technical and product judgment
