## Job description

[OUR MISSION AND CUSTOMERS] We are creating the freedom for SMEs to succeed by delivering Europe's leading finance workspace with banking at its core, augmented by financial tools. We are proud to be rated 4.7 on Trustpilot, https://www.trustpilot.com/review/qonto.com based on 60,000 reviews. Our culture https://qonto.com/en/careers/culture puts customer satisfaction at the core of what we do (more about our culture here https://medium.com/qonto-way/the-qonto-way-our-culture-is-our-strategy-90defd4895f9).

[OUR JOURNEY] Founded in 2016 and launched in 2017 by Alexandre https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprot/ and Steve https://www.linkedin.com/in/steveanavi/, Qonto has grown to 1,700 Qontoers serving over 750,000 customers across 8 European countries. We have been profitable since 2023, and we are just getting started.

[OUR BELIEFS] We hire for skills and potential. With 80+ nationalities, 45% women, and 56% of women in our leadership team, diversity isn't a program; It's who we are. We've built a discrimination-free hiring process https://medium.com/qonto-way/a-recruiters-dilemma-confronting-bias-in-hiring-b78acce148eb because the best teams are built on merit.

[AI AT QONTO] AI is deeply embedded in how we work (here https://medium.com/qonto-way/ai-at-qonto-vision-statement-725a7e2f659b) - Every Qontoer gets unlimited access to the best AI tools. We want people who experiment without waiting for permission, push AI beyond the obvious, know when to trust it, and when to question it.

Join us as Engineering Manager – Accounting Product and help build the last missing piece of Qonto’s all-in-one offer for businesses. You’ll lead a cross-functional team of engineers making accounting effortless for business owners, under the guidance of Yanis, our Head of Engineering for the Accounting domain.

➡️ What you’ll do

- Lead your team: You’ll manage engineers across the stack and help each of them grow.

- Put accounting on autopilot: You’ll build features that generate bookkeeping automatically and show customers, in real time, the VAT they owe.

- Make accounting simple: You’ll turn complex accounting and tax steps into a clear experience that business owners can complete with confidence.

- Bring AI into accounting: You’ll ship AI-first experiences, like a chat that answers customers from their own accounting file.

- Co-own the product: You’ll shape the roadmap with your Product Manager and Designer, from discovery to impact.

- Unblock your team technically: You’ll dive into design, code reviews and debugging with your engineers, whatever the stack.

➡️ What we’re looking for

- People leadership: You’ve led engineers as a manager or Tech Lead, and you’re driven by helping people grow.

- Hands-on technical background: You’ve built production systems yourself and can help your team solve technical problems in any stack, using AI to get up to speed on languages you know less.

- AI-driven development: You use AI in your own engineering work and push your team to raise the bar with it.

- Languages: You’re fluent in English (French is a bonus).

- Bonus: You’re familiar with the French accounting world, its services and how accountants work with businesses.

➡️ What we can offer you

- A product at launch: You’ll join right after the first launch of Qonto Accounting and shape what it becomes.

- Visible business impact: Accounting keeps customers with Qonto for the long run, so your team’s work shows up directly in loyalty.

- A domain on the move: Qonto Accounting is growing fast in France and starting to expand to other European markets.

➡️ Your future manager

You’ll report to Yanis https://www.linkedin.com/in/yanishammada/, Head of Engineering, but don’t expect micro-management. Yanis grew from Lead Engineer to Head of Engineering over 4 years at Qonto. He’s a pragmatic generalist who has built payment integrations from scratch and is as comfortable on the frontend as on the backend. He gives engineers real ownership, values sharing failures as much as wins, and gets out of the way so the team can ship.

➡️ Our stack & practices

- Our primary languages are Go and Ruby, React for frontend, and Kotlin and Swift for our mobile apps.

- Our platform runs on Kubernetes, hosted on AWS, with PostgreSQL as our database of choice.

- We use Kafka for event-driven architecture and ELK for logging and auditing, among many other tools.

- Each engineer gets access to AI-first tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Notion AI), and we want people who use AI to raise the bar, not just to go faster. Read our AI vision statement https://medium.com/qonto-way/ai-at-qonto-vision-statement-725a7e2f659b.

- We use Linear as an issue tracking and project management platform for our software development.

➡️ Our methodology: the Qonto Way

- We value upfront technical design, team code reviews, and smart slicing — quality drives the velocity our customers need.

- Our lean toolbox, Kaizen https://medium.com/qonto-way/qonto-way-strong-engineering-culture-prt1-kaizen-spirit-7e6e0a17c07e and PDCA, lets you drive continuous improvement with your peers and manager.

- Want to go further? Read about the Qonto Way https://medium.com/qonto-way/tagged/the-qonto-way.

➡️ About our hiring process

- 2 interviews (1 hour each): first with your Talent Acquisition Manager, then with Yanis, your future direct manager.

- Live skill test (about 2 hours) with two engineers: product discussion, system design and an AI-assisted code review.

- Final interview (1 hour): with Carl, our VP Engineering.

[DIVERSITY] At Qonto, we understand that true diversity isn’t just about ticking boxes on a hiring checklist. Apply regardless of the boxes you tick - who knows? You may have the missing piece of the puzzle we’ve been searching for all along.

[HIRING PROCESS DURATION] On average, our hiring process lasts 20 working days. More information on our candidate journey here https://qonto.com/en/careers/candidate-journey

[DATA RETENTION] By applying, you agree that Qonto processes your personal data to assess your application. Your data is kept for up to 2 years in our candidate pool. Read our Privacy Notice https://qonto.com/en/legal-documents/privacy-notice for full details.

**Live in Qonto’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
