This role
The Customer Onboarding Platform owns the end-to-end applicant journey. From a customer's first application through approval to an active PayJoy product. As the orchestration layer across many standalone backend systems (identity verification, credit decisioning, device provisioning), the platform sits at the center of the company's growth funnel. This role requires strong cross-team coordination, the judgment to balance conversion, risk, and reliability, and the ability to set technical direction across system boundaries you don't directly own.
The Senior Engineering Manager is responsible for providing technical guidance and aligning engineering efforts with product and business stakeholders to deliver high impact products and features. Additionally, responsible for team growth planning, assisting with hiring, mentoring, and providing feedback to engineers on their performance in order to help remove technical or administrative obstacles that impede task completion.
