About The Role

Lead the team that builds the face of YipitData. As our Senior Engineering Manager, Corporate Application Engineering, you will own the customer‑facing web applications that drive one of our fastest‑growing revenue lines. Reporting directly to the VP of Engineering, you’ll blend hands‑on architecture with strategic leadership to ship secure, scalable features that delight our corporate clients. Today you’ll manage three full‑stack engineers—front‑end and back‑end—but you’ll also shape the charter and grow the team in 2026. You’ll partner closely with our Head of Applications, Senior UI / UX Designers, as well as our 10‑person Corporate Data Engineering group to turn billions of data points into elegant user experiences.

This is a remote friendly role, with periodic trips to our NYC headquarters for leadership summits and team‑building events.

This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarter is located), one of our office hubs (Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, or Seattle), or anywhere else in the US. However, depending upon where the remote work is performed, income could be subject to New York State tax withholding.
