Engineering Team Lead

£21.6 - £25.1 per hourEstimated

We’re Capital on Tap
Capital on Tap started because small businesses were underserved. Big banks were slow, their products weren't fit for purpose, and small business owners often couldn't access what they needed. We set out to fix that.

Today we're a financial platform - not just a credit card company. We offer a best-in-class business credit card, SME-focused spend management platform, a savings product that hit £1 billion in funds within its first year, and a growing suite of tools and financial products that make running a small business easier. 

1,000+ employees, £20bn in annual card spend, 200,000+ customers, 17,000+ Trustpilot reviews averaging 4.7 stars, and we're profitable. We’ve done a pretty good job so far, but we’re just getting started! 

This is a Hybrid role, working from our London (Moorgate) Offices 2 days per week.

 

This is a multiple headcount role, so please don't be put off if you've seen this advertised for a while.

What You’ll Be Doing As an Engineering Team Lead you build and lead a high-performing, healthy engineering team. You own the delivery of your team's quarterly objectives, the growth of your direct reports, and the day-to-day culture that lets great work happen.

You stay hands-on, but your impact comes through your people and what the team delivers. You build a team that stays successful without you needing to step in.

  • Provide mentorship, constructive feedback, and foster a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement
  • Address underperformance decisively and advocate for your reports in calibration and promotion
  • Motivate the team, remove blockers, and track performance to ensure accountability
  • Work closely with Product, QA, and Technical Leaders to align on strategy and execution
  • Ensure clear, open communication in remote, hybrid, and in-person settings
  • Identify and mitigate risks, addressing challenges proactively
  • Own the holistic health of your team across people, process, and quality
  • Stay hands-on in software development, guiding engineers at a technical level
  • Advocate for the customer, balancing customer, team, and business needs in your decisions

We’re Looking For

  • A track record of leading and delivering complex projects
  • Experience leading or mentoring engineers, and the appetite to own the full management remit, from hiring and development through to the harder people conversations 
  • Extensive commercial experience with C# & .Net
  • Strong technical background in modern software development practices and cloud-based scalable architecture
  • A customer-focused, commercially aware and data-informed approach to your decision making
  • Ability to manage cross-team dependencies, collaborating effectively with Product, QA, and other stakeholders

Diversity & Inclusion
We welcome, consider and encourage applications from anyone who shares our commitment to inclusivity. Join us in creating a space where authenticity thrives, and everyone can do their best work.

Great Work Deserves Great Perks We try not to take ourselves too seriously (all the time) so we make sure our office is decked out with a pool table, arcade machine, beer tap, and a couple of office dogs thrown in for good measure. Check out our benefits:
