About the role

  • Join the Tilt team, where we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss.
  • Lead a dynamic team of engineers focused on driving product adoption and optimizing customer acquisition strategy through data-driven engineering initiatives.
  • Collaborate closely with product management, data science, credit, and marketing to develop high-impact features, experiments, and optimizations that contribute to company growth goals.
  • Foster a culture of high performance, accountability, and continuous learning within the engineering team.
  • Guide the team in solving complex technical challenges, balancing technical quality with rapid learning. Drive a technical roadmap that helps unlock greater impact.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of engineering experience, with at least 3 years in an engineering management role.
  • Proven track record of leading product engineering teams at a scaling startup or high-growth company.
  • Strong understanding of data-driven decision-making, A/B testing, and experimentation frameworks.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate technical challenges to non-technical stakeholders and drive alignment across teams.
  • Ability to balance hands-on engineering work with strategic leadership.
  • Strong bias for action with the ability to efficiently and methodically organize and deploy cross-functional resources in pursuit of business goals and changing circumstances.
  • Able to effectively leverage AI-powered development tools (e.g., Cursor, Augment, Factory) to enhance productivity, code quality, and collaboration.
Benefits
  • Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You’ll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.
  • Competitive pay: We're big on potential, and it's reflected in our competitive compensation packages and generous equity.
  • Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.
  • Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team — we’re a team where good ideas travel quickly.
  • Paid global onsites: Magic happens IRL: we gather twice yearly to reconnect over shared meals or kayaking adventures. (We’ve visited Vail, San Diego, and Mexico City, to name a few.)
  • Impact is recognized: Growth opportunities follow your contributions, not rigid promotion timelines.
