About the Team/Role
We are seeking a seasoned Manager of Engineering in the WEX Mobility Engineering organization. This role will lead the engineering team for our 10-4 by WEX product that caters fuel discounts and mobility payments solutions to owner operator customers. The development team spans across USA and Brazil. WEX Mobility products enable credit issuance to fleet companies and their employees, and owner-operator truckers in the form of WEX Credit Cards, which can be used in fueling stations and select other merchants. At WEX, we provide fleet managers and operators with the ability to configure spend controls that restrict fleet members to use their card only at preconfigured merchants and for configured product families.
How you’ll make an impact:
Leadership & Strategy:
- Develop, drive, and execute a long-term vision and strategy for the 10-4 by WEX product.
- Drive, prioritize, and work backwards from customer requirements in collaboration with product and commercial partners.
- Maintain a well-thought-out roadmap and create clear, interdependent OKRs with product and commercial teams.
- Establish a robust engineering roadmap to maintain clarity and motivation within the team.
Technical Ownership & Execution:
- Be as a hands-on technical leader with full ownership of systems design across mobile applications and backend microservices.
- Drive end-to-end technical project execution, from initial concept through deployment and ongoing support.
- Develop and track the progress of the architectural roadmap, aligning with business objectives and industry best practices.
- Drive cross-team engineering projects as a single-threaded owner (STO).
- Implement mechanisms to reduce time-to-market using evolving engineering approaches, continuously challenging the status quo.
- Establish measurement of metrics-driven development productivity across the team.
Team Development & Culture:
- Hire, lead, manage, retain, and grow high-performance software engineers through active career growth planning.
- Foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, empowerment, and continuous learning.
- Maintain career growth plans and provide monthly and quarterly feedback for individual progress.
- Maintain a granular resource map of developers and their month-over-month work streams.
Collaboration & Efficiency:
- Collaborate with other Mobility engineering teams to reuse development practices and components, reducing duplication.
- Drive effective monthly and weekly mechanisms for planning, executing, and auditing workstreams.
- Partner with product and commercial (sales) leads to maintain a well-thought-out roadmap.
- Comfortably present, influence, and communicate to the senior leadership team. Provide regular updates and insights to your manager (Director) on the challenges and opportunities.
Experience you'll bring:
- Master’s degree in Computer Science or Software Engineering.
- 10+ years of experience in software engineering with 4+ years of engineering management experience.
- Hands-on experience in mobile development (native iOS/Android or cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter).
- Expertise in developing large-scale distributed systems and proven experience in testing and validating solutions for accuracy and performance
- Ability to automate generating scaffolding code, unit tests, and integration tests using past execution data and generative AI
- Strong understanding of security and compliance requirements in cloud and data environments.
- Excellent leadership, team-building, and dynamic decision-making skills.
- Ability to deal with ambiguity and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience scaling mobile apps and backend services to thousands of users.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms and containerization.
- Experience building high-performance distributed systems at internet-scale companies.
- Experience building credit card products, or experience developing solutions in a scheme/network.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for wex. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
