Salary: EUR 70,400 - 105,600 / annual
GoCardless, a Mollie company, is a global leader in bank payments processing over $130bn annually across 30+ countries. The Payment Success team builds intelligent products using machine learning and AI to help merchants get paid reliably, predict payment failures, recover funds, and protect cash flow across payment rails.
As Engineering Manager II, you will lead a cross-functional team of engineers, a designer, and data scientists. You own the payment intelligence products already built and collaborate with your product manager to define what gets built next. The team operates with problem ownership rather than task assignment—you and your team decide what to build, how to build it, and how success is measured.
You are accountable for quality, delivery, and operation of everything the team ships. You develop your people through 1:1s, feedback, and career development. You step in wherever needed and earn credibility with senior engineers and data scientists across product development.
Key responsibilities include: shipping products from MVP experiments to full features with consistent positive impact; hiring and growing engineers while maintaining a supportive team culture; insisting on high technical standards and operational excellence; managing stakeholder expectations on project delivery; planning and prioritizing impactful technical investments; and embodying company values.
GoCardless operates globally with teams across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. The company is headquartered in the UK and emphasizes a culture of experimentation, testing, and learning. Benefits include wellbeing support, flexible working, generous time off, learning budget, and a work-away scheme allowing up to 90 days abroad annually.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Professional coding experience with Python and Ruby on Rails for backend, JavaScript/React for frontend
- Commitment to building reliable, well-tested systems
- Enthusiasm for experimentation, testing, and learning-driven development
- Demonstrated ability to support and grow engineers
- Strong communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences
- Experience with cross-functional collaboration (product, design, data science)
- High agency and ownership mindset; comfort with challenges and changing environments
