Full Job Description
WHO IS AIWYN AND WHAT DO WE DO? Aiwyn is the first complete platform for modern Accounting Firms. Backed by top-tier investors like Bessemer, KKR, and Revolution, we're one of the fastest-growing scale-up SaaS companies in the world. We build category-defining technology, and we're doing it with world-class people, processes, and products. To learn more, visit our website https://aiwyn.ai/ We work with 800+ of the top 1,000 accounting firms in the country on payments. It's our core business and the front door to everything else on the platform. We process billions of dollars a year through it, and the volume is growing fast. We're hiring an Engineering Manager to lead the team that owns this surface: the AR automation engine that connects directly to the practice management systems firms run their business on, ingests invoices, collects through ACH, card, and digital wallet, and posts the result back to the ledger. THE ROLE Payments is how Aiwyn lands, how Aiwyn expands, and the system every other product on the platform eventually depends on. The team you'll lead owns the engine that runs it. Invoice ingest, the firm-branded client portal, payment authorization and automation, collections, reconciliation, and the integrations into payment processors, partners, and the practice management systems firms already use. You'll lead the engineering team behind this work. A team of engineers today, headcount growing, partnering closely with a PM and the operators across the business who depend on this system being correct, fast, and visible. WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE When this team is doing its job, two things should be true: - Firms trust the platform with their money. Money movement at this scale doesn't get to be wrong. Firms can see the full lifecycle of every payment, audit trails are clean, and when something fails the system explains itself. Compliance posture is airtight. The platform behaves the way you'd expect a system handling billions of dollars to behave. - Volume
