Job Description

Job Details

We believe small businesses are at the heart of our communities, and championing them is worth fighting for. We empower small business owners to manage their finances fearlessly, by offering the simplest, all-in-one financial management solution they can't live without.

About the Engineering Team:

We aim to meaningfully improve the lives of small business owners, who are traditionally under-served and often struggle because of this. As a manager in the engineering team at Wave, you’ll lead an incredible team of engineers to build high-quality systems at scale. This means being involved in the research, design, and organizational and maintenance practices behind our wide range of applications, which are relied upon by tens of thousands of small business owners. You won’t find many hardcore specialists here. Your team will be willing and able to dive into different technologies to get the job done - and so should you!  This requires curiosity, openness to new ideas and perspectives, and a genuine interest in what makes software products tick.


Here’s What You Should Know About Engineering at Wave:

    • Our Technology: Wave is powered by several key technologies. Our toolkit is primarily Python and Django on the service layer, with some Ruby and Golang as well. GraphQL and REST power our APIs, and our web/mobile front-ends are React and ReactNative with Typescript. We expect software developers to have proficiency in one or more of these areas. You will be expected to be able to cross technical domains and contribute to both the back-end and front-end as needs arise.
    • Your Work Will Matter: Engineering managers at Wave are responsible to their teams and their stakeholders.  You will need to maintain solid relationships with Product Managers, Designers, and members of the Product Compliance team.  You will work to keep team morale and productivity high, providing a viable career path to everyone on your team.  You will evaluate, coach and promote your team members, learning from other Engineering managers at Wave as you hone your own people management skills.
    • We Are a Community: Wave is about the size of a small neighbourhood. It is possible to get to know everyone on a personal basis. If you’re trying to solve a hard problem that has roots in some other part of the company, odds are pretty good that you’ll find someone close by who can help you out.
    • You Will be Stretched: We’re big on transparency and we know Wave isn’t for everyone. However, if you’re ready to flex your creativity, excel at your craft, fuel your curiosity, and thrive in a dynamic environment, we’re confident you’ll love being a Waver

Here’s How You Make an Impact:

    • Leading a team of Engineers responsible for powering Wave’s software platform, and our public and internal APIs.
    • Responsible for the team’s prioritization and planning and ultimately its pace and quality of software delivery. By;
    • managing an agile process that determines the team's priorities and task list. 
    • working with the teams' engineers and outside stakeholders decides the technical strategy for the team to deliver on its goals
    • communicating timelines and plans to senior leadership and working to adjust these in accordance with business needs
    • Leading project scoping, planning, and sequencing of execution
    • Setting standards and leading by example in showing how to deliver quality at a pace
    • Helping to drive continuous improvement across the team
    • Responsible for the performance and growth of their team members. By; 
    • developing growth plans for team members and helping create the needed opportunities to fulfill them
    • providing coaching and mentorship through 1:1s, training or creating mentorship relationships with other senior Wavers.
    • Driving improvements across Engineering to improve our reliability and reduce downtime.
    • Split time between hands-on engineering work and engineering management as needed.
At Wave, you’re treated like the incredible human being you are. 

Work From Where You Work Best: We will always have a welcoming, energizing, and world-class office (in Toronto) with a space for you. Or, if you’re more comfortable working from home, the choice is yours.
We Care About Future You: You will stretch yourself and you will grow at Wave. You will also be supported on this journey with diverse learning experiences, educational allowances, mentorship, and so much more.
We Support the Full You: We make a serious investment in your health & wellness. When we think about benefits we think about body, mind, & soul and we take this stuff very seriously. 
We Take Care of the Fundamentals: Fair compensation, all the office perks you’d want, and the various goodies you’d expect from a growing tech company. This is the obvious stuff, but we don’t want you to think we forgot!

We believe that a diverse and inclusive culture creates the best workplace. We embrace our differences, value individuality, and the broad spectrum of every Waver's skills and abilities. We challenge each other from a place of respect and pursuit of continuous growth. We trust each other and encourage everyone to bring their authentic selves to work, everyday. As Wavers, our voices matter, our opinions are met with an open mind. The best ideas win, no matter whose they are.  Contributing to an inclusive culture is a part of all of our job descriptions. 

We’ve been continuously recognized as one of Canada's Top Ten Most Admired Corporate Cultures and one of Canada’s Great Places to Work in categories including Technology, Millennials, Mental Health, Inclusion and Women.
