Engineering Manager - Billing Unit

Join Our Vision: We are building the next generation of Spatial Media - a new way people experience videos through interaction, multi-user presence, haptics, AI, and immersive storytelling.

DeoVR is the leading immersive streaming technology serving multiple enterprise customers and millions of users globally.

We are now expanding the boundaries of what video can be - moving from passive watching to active, interactive, multi-user journeys.

If this excites you more than it scares you, you are in the right place.

The Role

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Billing unit.

You will own a critical part of the system – a billing orchestration and monetization platform, responsible for how payments, billing flows, financial operations are executed, routed, and reconciled across multiple systems and providers – as well as the broader revenue and creator payouts ecosystem.

This is a management-first role with strong technical depth, where reliability, correctness, and scalability of financial systems are core success factors.

What You Will Do

• Lead a focused backend engineering team (~5 engineers) responsible for the Billing domain

• Own delivery of the Billing Platform, including core billing orchestration logic and smart routing capabilities for financial operations

• Own delivery and evolution of the Statistics service: video tracking, premium views calculations, trending calculations (videos/photos/actors/channels), and creator analytics (views, watch time, likes, premium seconds watched)

• Own delivery and evolution of the Affiliates service: affiliate attribution/tracking and export of video feeds including affiliate link parameters

• Own the premium budget calculation and distribution to creators (creator income per video)

• Own the creator invoicing, payouts, and reconciliation workflows

• Own the internal contractor invoice generation workflow (with payouts executed by accountants)

• Drive design and evolution of payment and billing workflows, ensuring correctness, idempotency, consistency, and fault tolerance end-to-end

• Partner closely with Product Manager and Tech Lead to translate fintech requirements into clear technical plans and realistic delivery roadmaps

• Own execution predictability for the team (sprint planning, delivery commitments, scope management, quarterly planning)

• Establish and maintain engineering processes that support reliable delivery (code reviews, incident handling, retrospectives, post-mortems)

• Maintain high standards for financial system quality, including auditability, traceability, and data correctness

• Build a strong, ownership-driven engineering culture with high accountability and attention to detail in fintech systems

• Provide clear, structured reporting on progress, risks, and priorities to Engineering Leadership

What We Are Looking For

• 3+ years of engineering management experience leading backend teams (5+ engineers)

• Strong background in backend engineering with ability to deeply understand distributed systems and architecture trade-offs

• Experience working with financial systems, billing systems, payment flows, or transactional platforms

• Experience with analytics/statistics pipelines and/or creator monetization domains (e.g., attribution, revenue share, payouts, invoicing) is a strong plus

• Proven ability to lead teams delivering mission-critical, high-reliability systems

• Experience owning delivery commitments and improving predictability in complex engineering environments

• Strong understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies and engineering execution practices

• Ability to evaluate technical decisions and challenge architecture when needed

• Strong communication skills with ability to align engineering, product, and leadership stakeholders

• English B2+ or higher,

Bonus Points

• Exposure to smart routing systems (e.g., payment routing, decision engines, optimization flows)

• Hands-on backend experience with PHP

• Experience with relational and distributed data systems in production

• Familiarity with observability for financial systems (tracing, audit logs, reconciliation pipelines)

Platform Stack (Billing Unit)

• Language: PHP (core backend language)

• Databases: PostgreSQL, ClickHouse

• Infrastructure: Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD

• Messaging & Caching: Redis, RabbitMQ, Kafka

• Domain Focus: Billing orchestration, smart routing engine, payment flows, statistics/analytics services, affiliates attribution, premium budget distribution, invoicing & payouts, reconciliation, financial event processing
