We are seeking a Senior Software Engineering Manager to join Web Core, a new frontend web platform team at SoFi

This team will be central to scaling our 80+ consumer-facing and internal web applications. In this role, you’ll drive the design, architecture, and development of platform-level tools, libraries, documentation, and frontend patterns that power our web ecosystem.

You’ll collaborate closely with engineering, product, design, infrastructure, and executive leadership to define and execute a strategic vision that supports company-wide goals.

The team will be an AI-first team, adopting LLM/agentic-powered technologies to accelerate and scale our web platform. An engineering manager should ideally be excited about learning and integrating with these new tools.

What you’ll do:

Lead the development and testing of our systems and services
Participate in shaping the technical architecture of the web platforms
Deliver reusable web SDKs, libraries and frameworks to scale web applications and drive consistency
Design and maintain systems that improve developer experience across CI/CD, testing, and deployment pipelines.

Experience working in a collaborative coding environment, refining designs together, working through code reviews and managing pull requests
Willingness to roll up your sleeves, collaborate with others and get stuff done
Strong sense of responsibility; driving a project from inception to completion
Affinity for solving problems and shipping impactful features, not polishing perfect code or architecture
Experience working in a collaborative coding environment (and git specifically), refining designs together, working through code reviews and managing pull requests
