  • Partner closely with Architecture, Security, Infrastructure, Data, Product, and Commercial teams to ensure the B2B platform is scalable, secure, maintainable, and aligned to Flywire's broader technology strategy.
  • Recruit, mentor, and develop senior engineering leaders and technical talent, creating a culture of ownership, urgency, collaboration, and high performance.

  • Strong understanding of payment flows, financial systems, transaction processing, reconciliation, compliance, risk, or related fintech infrastructure.
  • AI-forward mindset, with practical experience applying AI, automation, or data-driven capabilities to improve product and engineering outcomes.
  • Experience building engineering culture in a hub or site leadership capacity strongly preferred.
  • Ability to operate with executive presence, influence senior stakeholders, and navigate complex organizational dynamics.
  • Strong talent magnet with the ability to attract, assess, hire, coach, and retain exceptional engineering talent.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex technical topics for technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Location preference: Austin, Texas. Chicago may also be considered for exceptional candidates.

What Success Looks Like
  • In the first 6 to 12 months, this leader will:
