Engineering Manager

About the role

The Points Guy is transforming from a media business into a consumer product company. For fifteen years we helped millions of people master points, miles, and travel through content. Now we are building the products that do it for them, including AI-native, consumer-facing experiences that act on a user's behalf. The engineering problems in front of us are about engagement, growth, and active users, not page views.
