We are looking for a hands-on Software Engineering Manager to lead Zipline’s Financial Platform team.
This role is responsible for building the layer that turns Zipline’s operational activity into accurate, auditable, scalable financial systems. As Zipline grows across commercial delivery, marketplace-style partnerships, manufacturing, inventory, and global operations, we need financial systems that can keep pace with the business.
You will lead a small team of software engineers building the platforms that support pricing, billing, tax, payments, credits, refunds, partner settlement, reconciliation, financial events, inventory costing, manufacturing finance, ERP integrations, and finance data products.
We are looking for someone who believes in building high-leverage custom software where it matters, integrating with third-party systems where appropriate, and creating durable platforms that help the business scale. The ideal candidate is a hands-on engineering manager who has grown from a strong software engineering background, can lead and coach a small team of engineers, and still has the technical depth to shape architecture and implementation. They bring a product mindset, finance or accounting domain knowledge, and experience building financial systems in complex operational environments.
You will work directly with Finance, Commercial, Manufacturing, Operations, Data, and Software Engineering to understand the real business problems, question requirements, define the roadmap, and build the systems that allow Zipline to scale with financial accuracy and operational speed.
The best candidates for this role are scrappy builders who understand enterprise complexity without being constrained by enterprise software playbooks. You should be comfortable managing a small team, writing code when needed, shaping architecture, and understanding problems deeply enough to build systems that solve the real business need, not just the stated request.

By transitioning to clean, electric, instant logistics, we can decarbonize delivery, decrease road congestion, and reduce fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access for billions of people.
