Senior Engineering Manager, Dashboard

Senior Engineering Manager, Dashboard + Growth

Fingerprint empowers developers to stop online fraud at the source. We work on turning radical new ideas in the fraud detection space into reality. Our products are developer-focused and our clients range from solo developers to publicly traded companies. We are a globally dispersed, 100% remote company with a strong open‑source focus. Our flagship open‑source project is Fingerprint

JS (20K stars on Git Hub). We have raised $77M and are backed by Craft Ventures (previously invested in Tesla, Facebook, Airbnb), Nexus Venture Partners (previously invested in Postman, Apollo.io, MinIO, Druva) and Uncorrelated Ventures (previously invested in Redis, Rollbar & Gradle).

** We have noticed a rise in recruiting impersonations across the industry, where scammers attempt to access candidates' personal and financial information through fake interviews and offers. All Fingerprint recruiting email communications will always come from the  domain. Any outreach claiming to be from Fingerprint via other sources should be ignored.**

We’re hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to lead and elevate two mission‑critical squads – Dashboard and Growth. In this role, you’ll balance deep technical judgment with high‑impact leadership, uniting strategic vision with scalable execution. You’ll enable teams to build decisive product experiences that drive adoption, retention, and value realization – from intuitive onboarding flows to high‑scale analytics that power mission‑critical decisions for our customers.

This is not just a people‑management role – it’s a hands‑on leadership role for someone who sets a high bar for execution, moves teams forward with urgency, and influences technical direction through strong judgment and partnership with senior engineers.

Lead the effort to create delightful, product‑led growth experiences that turn trial users into loyal customers. Your team will define and build:

• Onboarding flows and PLG conversion milestones
• Product engagement features (e.g., “aha moments” like Recipe builders, interactive walkthroughs)
• Feature discovery mechanisms that accelerate value realization

Oversee the engineering of Fingerprint's core customer console – the analytics and control center customers use to:

• Monitor device signals and fraud risk
• Configure account settings and detection rules
• Understand performance, adoption, and operational health

You’ll empower both technical and non‑technical customers with performance, clarity, and insight.

• Coach, mentor, and grow engineers across two squads.
• Set and uphold a high performance bar, addressing underperformance directly while creating clarity around expectations and outcomes.

• Drive teams to operate with speed and focus, ensuring scope, sequencing, and trade‑offs are well understood and intentionally made.
• Partner deeply with Product, Design, and GTM teams to translate roadmap vision into reality.
• Ensure timely delivery of high‑quality features while balancing scale, stability, and performance.

• Provide architectural and technical guidance without micromanaging.
• Help the team navigate complexity by pushing for simplicity, clarity, and maintainable solutions.
• Participate in architectural discussions, occasionally code reviews as needed, and tech planning that influences platform scalability and reliability.

• Help teams anticipate and address challenges around scale – both in traffic and in product complexity – ensuring onboarding flows and dashboards remain performant and dependable as usage grows.
• Balance urgency with quality by helping teams make pragmatic decisions without over‑engineering or unnecessary delays.

• Be a visible bridge between engineering and stakeholders across the organization.
• Distill technical trade‑offs into effective business decisions and clearly communicate rationale.

What Success Looks Like in the First 6 Months:

• Teams are shipping consistently with high quality and predictable delivery.
• Engineers have clear ownership, strong technical standards, and a bias toward…
