Engineering Manager

Who We Are :

At Wagepoint, we’re good people. Sure, maybe we’re biased. But that’s only because Wagepointers bring the best versions of ourselves to do some of the best work in our careers.

We’re an authentic team who bring our diverse backgrounds, ideas, experiences and cultures together to make payroll magic. Speaking of, we “pull rabbits out of hats” for thousands of small business owners across Canada who rely on our payroll software to pay their employees and process their payroll taxes. And we’re just getting started.

We’re growing and looking for more awesome people to join our merry band of misfits. We are looking for people who share our understanding that when it comes to our commitment to our customers : we mean business. Especially given that the consequences of getting payroll wrong can sometimes be dire.

If you are the kind of person who has always wanted to make a difference and be heard at work, Wagepoint will give you plenty of opportunity to do just that.

The Role at High Level :

We’re looking for a talented Engineering Manager who doesn’t shy away from tackling hard problems and interesting (well, most times) subjects like payroll and HR technology. You’ll lead and mentor a cross-functional engineering team while executing technical strategies, ensuring code quality, and fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment. You will report directly to our Director of Engineering .

What You'll Be Expected To Own :

• Delivering end-to-end project execution from planning to release, ensuring on-time delivery and stakeholder satisfaction
• Leading and developing a high-performing team through mentorship, feedback, and regular 1 : 1s
• Driving the implementation of scalable, secure, and efficient engineering solutions
• Maintaining high standards for code quality, coverage, and technical documentation
• Monitoring system performance and proactively addressing optimization opportunities
• Ensuring compliance with security best practices and industry regulations
• Training your team on new technologies and fostering a knowledge-sharing culture
