About the Role
DEUNA is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our AI/ML engineering team — the group building the intelligent systems behind payment routing optimization, authorization rate improvement,



and our AI-powered digital workforce products. You will manage a team of engineers (currently ~7-8) spanning ML, backend, and platform work, while staying close enough to the technical details to guide architecture decisions, unblock your team, and represent the group's roadmap to product and leadership.
This is a hands-on management role: you won't be writing production code day-to-day, but you need enough depth in ML systems, backend services, and AI/LLM workflows to make good calls on architecture, review technical approaches, and coach engineers through hard problems. You'll own delivery for the team — scoping, costing, and sequencing initiatives — while building a low-tech-debt, high-quality engineering culture.
Who You Are
- 8+ years in software engineering, including 2-3+ years in a people management role leading engineers.
- You have significant experience building and shipping backend and/or ML systems at scale,
