The unified platform to grow and simplify commerce. The AI-powered platform to orchestrate global payments and accelerate commerce performance. Backed by Abstract Ventures.
About the role
DEUNA is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our AI/ML engineering team — the group building the intelligent systems behind payment routing optimization, authorization rate improvement, and our AI-powered digital workforce products. You will manage a team of engineers (currently ~7-8) spanning ML, backend, and platform work, while staying close enough to the technical details to guide architecture decisions, unblock your team, and represent the group's roadmap to product and leadership. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years in software engineering, including 2-3+ years in a people management role leading engineers
- You have significant experience building and shipping backend and/or ML systems at scale, ideally with exposure to fintech, payments, or another regulated, latency-sensitive domain
- You've managed engineers before, hiring, developing, and retaining a team, and you know how to balance people development with delivery pressure
- You have hands-on familiarity with modern AI/ML systems: model training and serving, LLM-powered workflows (agents, RAG, orchestration), or similar — enough to have a real technical conversation with your team and challenge their thinking when needed
- Practical exposure to LLM-based systems in production (agents, RAG, or AI workflow orchestration)
- Payments, fintech, or another regulated-industry background is a strong plus, but not required
