Senior Manager- Software Engineering

Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.

We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.

At Socure, we are revolutionizing digital trust by building mission-critical systems that deliver high reliability and operate at global scale. As a Manager, Software Engineering, you will be a hands-on technical leader who defines direction, raises engineering standards, and delivers measurable product outcomes, all while remaining deeply involved in design and development. This is not a traditional people-management or delivery-management role—here, you will write code, architect solutions, lead complex projects, and coach engineers to maximize their potential.

This role is perfect for leaders seeking high-growth, product-driven environments, who are passionate about distributed systems, and who want to directly influence the design of secure, scalable, and resilient infrastructure while cultivating top engineering talent.

What You'll Do:

Architect and design scalable, resilient, high-performance backend systems and platforms in AWS, prioritizing reliability, security, and cost efficiency.

Contribute hands-on to key initiatives—including design reviews, prototyping, coding, performance tuning, and debugging—typically 30% of your time, while mentoring engineers and establishing high standards.

Lead cross-team technical initiatives; drive design forums, establish engineering guardrails, and ensure high-quality delivery via code reviews and automation.

Partner closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and Platform teams to define project scope, sequence milestones, and proactively de-risk execution for iterative releases.
