MaridTech تعلن عن وظيفة مدير هندسة في الرياض

About the Role

Marid is looking for an Engineering Manager to own the execution of our engineering roadmap in Riyadh. You'll lead our engineering team's day-to-day delivery, manage our technology vendor relationship, and be accountable for turning our technical priorities into shipped, working software. You'll work closely with Marid's leadership on strategic direction, and be the one who makes it real.

About Marid

Marid is building an AI-powered open banking credit card analysis platform for the GCC region. Our platform helps consumers and financial institutions gain deeper, more intelligent visibility into credit card usage, spending behaviour, and financial health, powered by open banking data and advanced analytics.

We operate at the forefront of Saudi Arabia's rapidly evolving open banking landscape, aligned with SAMA's Open Banking Framework and Vision 2030's financial sector transformation agenda.

Key Responsibilities

As our Engineering Manager, you will:

• Own the day-to-day execution of our engineering team, ensuring delivery against scope, timelines, and quality standards.

• Translate Marid's technical roadmap into clear sprint plans, delivery milestones, and execution priorities.

• Establish and run code review, QA, and documentation processes that keep engineering quality consistent.

• Spot delivery and technical risks early and drive them to resolution before they affect the roadmap.

• Help build Marid's permanent engineering team: define roles, assess candidates, and shape the hiring plan as we scale.

• Be the go-to person for internal stakeholders on delivery status, blockers, and what's shipping next.

About You

You're someone who takes real ownership of getting things built and shipped. You know how to run a team, manage a vendor relationship with rigor, and keep a roadmap moving, translating priorities into action.

• Experience managing outsourced, contracted, or staff-augmentation engineering teams.

• A track record of translating business and technical priorities into delivery plans and holding a team accountable to them.

• Strong communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Desirable Qualifications

• Experience in fintech, open banking, or financial services technology.

• Familiarity with SAMA's Open Banking Framework or similar regulatory environments.

• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and modern DevOps practices.

• Arabic and English fluency.

What We Offer

• Base salary plus housing and transport allowances.

• Annual bonus based on company and individual performance.

• Annual travel allowance.
