82% of small businesses fail due to poor management of cash flow. Our vision is to enable the advancement of Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) by developing the tools & insights they need to maximize their cash flow.

As a Director of Engineering, you will help build, execute, and communicate Plooto’s Engineering Vision. You will help stakeholders to define clear requirements for projects to hit company and team metrics, manage timelines, identify resources, budget, and ensure delivery on commitments. You will work with a group of talented Engineers and Engineering Managers as direct reports. As you lead by example, they will look to you for mentorship and career growth. We will look for you to define, delegate, and track project level work while ensuring visibility to the business. You will successfully lead the architecture and development, deployment, and launch of the company's most complex and critical systems to align with business strategy.

You are passionate about user experience and have a wealth of experience in front-end design and technologies.

We are a meritocracy, so you will find that all decisions we make are based on facts, not dispositions. We are also process, performance and data-driven, so you need to be, too. You will produce engineering insights, set KPIs and OKRs for the team as well as write reports to develop and communicate ideas. You also have a sense of urgency towards action and an excellent ability to communicate in all directions of the org chart.
