Our infrastructure powers card programs for 100+ innovative clients, from fintechs reimagining credit and digital banking to platforms transforming disbursements and spend management. Companies like Mercury, Flex, and Novo rely on Lithic's developer-friendly APIs, direct network connections, and flawless reconciliation to launch and scale card programs in weeks, not years.
We're building a future where access to better financial products materially improves people's lives, free from the constraints of 30-year-old mainframes and legacy processors. We're proud to be backed by world-class investors who share that vision, including Bessemer Venture Partners, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Stripes, and Mastercard, along with many others.
We're a team of 160+ across 26 states and 7 countries, headquartered in New York City.
We are hiring an Engineering Manager for our Issuing team to lead Lithic’s next phase of growth.
The Issuing team is responsible for getting a card into an end user’s literal and figurative hand or wallet. We own core parts of the card and account lifecycle, including KYC/KYB flows for account holders, card issuance (physical and virtual), tokenization for digital wallets, and the data models and APIs that power these experiences. This team owns some of our most critical customer facing paths at the heart of our offering.
The systems we maintain have high standards of reliability and correctness, because they sit on the critical path for customers launching and operating card programs. The team primarily uses Python, Rust, and AWS, and interfaces with a broader service ecosystem across Lithic.
The annual US salary range for this role is $169,000 - $265,000 plus equity. This salary range is inclusive of several career levels at Lithic and will be narrowed during the interview process based on the candidate’s experience and qualifications.
