About the Role

Safe is building critical infrastructure for digital ownership. Our products help users and organizations manage assets, identities, permissions, and transactions securely.

As Safe continues to grow, the Wallet experience is one of the most important ways users interact with our product. We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Wallet team in Berlin, a high-impact role for someone who combines technical judgment, product thinking, people leadership, and strong delivery discipline.

As Engineering Manager for the team, you will own the technical quality, team growth, and delivery predictability of one of Safe's most user-facing engineering teams. The team is responsible for the core user experience across web, mobile, and supporting backend systems - including login, onboarding, transactions, UI/UX, design system, passkeys, Workspaces, Copilot/security assistant, social login, security flows, and policies.

In this role you will:

Lead the engineering team (senior & staff-level engineers) across frontend, mobile, and backend, ensuring high-quality delivery of Safe's core user-facing product experiences
Own delivery predictability by planning milestones, tracking progress, managing the Linear board, surfacing risks early, and adjusting scope or resources when needed
Partner closely with Product, Design, and QA to shape the roadmap, clarify requirements, define what "great" looks like, and balance speed, quality, and long-term maintainability
Hold the team accountable for delivery, ownership, technical quality, and follow-through while creating an environment of trust and autonomy
Provide technical leadership by reviewing RFCs, system designs, critical technical changes, and architecture trade-offs

You might be a great fit if you have:

3+ years of experience as an Engineering Manager
Strong TypeScript understanding
Experience leading engineering teams that build user-facing products
Ability to lead across frontend, mobile, and backend domains, even if your original background is stronger in one area
Strong technical judgment in system design, architecture, RFC review, and trade-off analysis
Ability to work closely with Product and QA on roadmap definition, execution, and quality

Nice to have

Full-stack engineering background
Experience with React, React Native, or NestJS
Web3 or fintech experience
Familiarity with authentication flows, access management, or transaction-based experiences

30 vacation days as standard: All contributors get 30 vacation days by default, with public holidays in addition.
