  • Build and maintain deep knowledge in specialized areas, serving as an internal reference and recognized leader within the engineering organization

    • Complexity and Impact of Work:
  • Lead through complex, ambiguous problems where fundamental principles may not fully apply, demonstrating the ability to achieve innovative breakthroughs
  • Manage final decisions on administrative and operational matters, ensuring budgets, timelines, and priorities align with both team and company objectives
  • Own the technical output of the team, including product and platform features, with decisions that have long-term impact on Anchorage's success

    • Organizational Knowledge:
  • Collaborate actively with different groups across Anchorage to work on global strategy and identify new ways to deliver upon it
  • Deliver a shared understanding of Anchorage's needs to rally teams, engaging with peers to develop methods and evaluation criteria with company-wide impact

    • Communication and Influence:
  • Listen and communicate complex issues clearly and credibly across a wide range of audiences, adapting communication strategy to persuade diverse stakeholders
  • Contribute thoughtful leadership on broader organization programs and projects, building effective relationships with stakeholders including clients, team managers, and cross-functional partners

  • 12+ years of relevant engineering experience, including significant experience leading and scaling engineering teams
  • A track record of successfully managing medium to large teams, delivering results of significant scope, influence, and impact
  • Experience leading through ambiguity—translating business strategy into actionable plans and guiding execution in complex, fast-moving environments
  • Demonstrated ability to develop talent, coach managers and senior engineers, and build psychologically safe, high-performing teams
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills with the ability to articulate clear strategy, influence stakeholders, and drive alignment across teams
  • Real-world experience building complex distributed systems (we mostly use Go, but languages can be learned—we care about your engineering and management skills)
  • You've maintained a "player-coach" skillset and feel comfortable conducting live technical programming interviews and reviewing pull requests
  • Experience managing geographically distributed teams, working cross-functionally across varying time zones

    • Although not a requirement, bonus points if:
  • Experience in crypto, blockchain, or fintech infrastructure at scale
  • Background in the finance industry and traditional finance settlement operations
  • Professional experience with Go/Rust/TypeScript/Solidity
