We're looking for a Software Engineering Manager (hybrid, Bristol, full-time) to join our talented team and help democratise the world of finance.
Apply at
Company Description
Tumelo’s mission is to empower shareholder democracy with technology that supports impactful stewardship. Since our inception in 2018, we've developed state-of-the-art investor-voting technologies. Our pass-through voting technology allows institutional and retail investors in pooled funds to vote their shares, providing greater choice and optionality. We aim to create a more transparent and representative stewardship process, leading to better outcomes for investors and the industry. For more information about our voting solutions, visit tumelo.com.
The Team
Tumelo is committed to building an inclusive, diverse and equitable culture based on the principles of high trust, autonomy, empowerment and psychological safety. We take inspiration from our company values - daring, nimble, mission driven, empowered and supportive. We all strive to represent these values in the way we work with our colleagues and external stakeholders alike.
The engineering team is comprised of four squads. The squads are laser focused on building, enhancing, and scaling the ProxySphere product - our industry leading pass-through voting SaaS product, currently serving some of the largest investment firms in the world.
As an engineering function, we’re deeply committed to the principles of DevOps, keeping engineers close to the things they build and release. This investment in automation enables the engineering team to safely release code multiple times per day.
We work in a strongly collaborative culture and actively encourage the engineering team to share ideas, pair and collaborate.
In short, if you’d like to be part of a team with a progressive culture and modern engineering practices, this could be the role for you.
Role Description
This is an exciting opportunity to lead a team of between 4-6 full stack engineers, working on Tumelo’s pioneering Retail and Institutional voting platforms. The team is also supported by a designer and product manager, and the team collaborate closely to achieve the best outcomes with a strong customer focus.
This team has a diverse range of responsibilities, including:
- The user-facing platforms of Tumelo’s offering: onboarding of users, determining their investments, offering voting capabilities, and reporting vote results after AGM dates.
- End-to-end ownership of a collection of Golang-based services, including:
- - Designing, building & testing in Golang with a Postgres database.
- - Deployment to AWS EKS using Skaffold via GitlabCI pipelines.
- - Infrastructure deployment via Terraform.
- - Observability via AWS Cloudwatch, and x-ray.
- - User-facing Next.js frontends written in Typescript React.
- In addition, we are currently embarking on an exciting project to modernise some of our legacy services in a new stack, and we’re looking for someone with experience of working at an industry-leading pace to help the team increase velocity through improvements to architecture and tooling as part of this work.
We have a culture of openness, support, and giving feedback. We spend a day each month learning new things as an engineering function to ensure we maintain our skills and can leverage new ideas.
To be a good fit for this role, you must be able to:
- Provide technical direction and leadership, facilitating collaborative decision-making on architecture, frameworks, and tools, and guiding the team to make informed and effective choices.
- Provide clear, compassionate, and actionable feedback through regular one-on-one meetings.
- Actively sponsor team members by recognising their achievements, advocating for their growth, and creating opportunities to help them achieve their goals
- Ensure code quality through rigorous code reviews and adherence to best practices.
- Work with product managers and designers to evaluate technical blockers early and translate business requirements into technical specifications.
- Facilitate goal setting, planning and estimation, monitor progress, and proactively escalate risks to stakeholders.
- This is primarily a hands-off role, but we find it helps to write code from time-to-time to understand the developer experience of engineers on the team. We support people to find the right balance for them.
If you have any of the following, we'd be especially interested to hear from you. We recognise that there is an abundance of technologies, and nobody can have experience with them all, so if your experience looks different from what we’ve identified below, and you think you can excel in the role, we’d still love to learn more about you.

- Experience writing testable code in a strongly typed language, in a commercial setting, using an automation-first approach (CI/CD).
- Frontend experience, ideally with React and TypeScript.
- Experience in the deployment and management of containerised services, preferably using Kubernetes.
- Experience working with a variety of databases (SQL, NoSQL and/or GraphDBs) and the ability to optimise queries.
