Engineering Manager, Web Automation & Open Banking Infrastructure

Responsibilities - Research and design new methods that push the boundaries of secure web automation - Lead a team of engineers building the core automation runtime, guiding architecture for resilient UI interactions, reliable programmatic data entry, and robust session routing. - Partner closely with product and program managers to ensure the open banking roadmap is well understood and the team can plan and execute on expected outcomes. - Work with the team on technical planning to ensure requirements – such as secure network interception, complex multi-step authentication flows (MFA, Passkeys), and session management – are captured in the technical solution. - Partner with other Engineering Managers to drive the broader technical roadmap forward. - Support the engineering team in achieving a high level of technical excellence in browser automation, extension development, and secure data extraction. - Manage processes to help the team do its best work and interface effectively with the rest of zerohash. - Recruit, coach, and develop engineers, specifically those specializing in web automation, browser internals, and distributed systems. - Help engineers establish career development plans within the evolving open banking and web automation space. - Contribute to engineering-wide initiatives as a member of zerohash's engineering management team. - Participate in essential technical, design, and product discussions with leaders across product and engineering teams. - Work with a wide range of stakeholders to build a clear vision for your team's role in the open banking ecosystem. - Oversee the success of your team's projects, driving resiliency, scalability, and coverage across dynamic DOM structures, varying mobile/desktop portal designs, and application suspension states. - Introduce industry-leading engineering patterns and practices that give the team confidence to operate at scale. - Make consistent development contributions so as to maintain competency with the codebase and system architecture. Requirements - 5+ years of engineering management experience, including managing senior and staff-level engineers. - Proven track record of managing teams that have delivered complex, production-grade browser automation, extension, or data infrastructure products. - Deep proficiency in TypeScript and JavaScript, specifically regarding DOM manipulation, modern web APIs, and strict browser execution environments. - Strong backend experience, ideally with Golang (or Node.js/Python), to guide the design of operational infrastructure. - Strong security fundamentals: deep understanding of secure message passing across trust boundaries (JS bridges, isolated vs. main worlds), secure authentication handshakes, and mitigating DOM-based injection risks. - Experience guiding teams through distributed systems challenges, specifically managing persistent connections and stateful, multi-hop sessions across ephemeral client runtimes.
