Self-Managing – Seek goals and feedback, but be able to direct your own work and team(s) journey towards agility in a positive direction
Transparent – displaying openness and transparency in all you do
A Teacher – You will be experienced in guiding and teaching and have significant experience in doing both for a mix of team-types as well as a mix of varying levels of stakeholder
A Learner – Someone who loves to learn and is constantly seeking new learning experiences
A Systemic Thinker – You will be aware of the goals of the organization and how your team(s) are expected to contribute to those goals; whilst having an appreciation of the interconnected dependencies both up/down-stream from your team(s)
An Innovator – Never satisfied with how things are, you will always be looking for ways to bring innovation to working practices
Enthusiastic – You will display and invoke high-levels of energy whilst performing your service
Fun – Bring a level of playfulness to your approach and encourage others to do the same
A Social Engineer – Improving group dynamics within all of the groups you interface with to enhance communication and build trust
A Mentor – You will display a natural tendency to lift others up providing mentorship in both official and unofficial capacities
What you will know:
You will have a deep knowledge and experience of Scrum and the subtleties of the process and have a clear understanding of the “Why” of Scrum as well as the “What” and “How” of Scrum (and Agile practices in general)
You will have a deep understanding of flow and the application and inspection of the metrics which will support improvements to flow
You will be able to introduce good practices around backlog management, including story writing, requirements breakdown, story-splitting, story-mapping and be able to talk knowledgeably about the requirements life-cycle
You will have an appreciation of ATDD, TDD, Continuous Integration, Continuous Testing, Pairing, Automated Testing
You will have an appreciation of the basic technical architecture of an enterprise organization, and a typical software development life-cycle when supporting engineering teams
You will have had experience of solving the problems with delivery and cultural dynamics within a number of environments and contexts (i.e. different sized organizations, co-located/distributed teams, new product development, legacy product maintenance)
You will be able to demonstrate the application of other practices which enhance agility but do not fall within the Scrum framework
What you will do:
Build an environment of openness in and around the team(s) you work with
Create a culture and environment where problems can be discussed in an open, transparent non-judgmental way, without fear of blame or retribution, leading towards positive outcomes
Be a strong facilitator of not only the various Scrum events, but have strong facilitation and mediation skills in general
Be able to lead those you work with towards self-organization and ownership of their process
Help the team(s) you work with to only make promises they can keep, and then to help them to focus and keep those promises
You will have a deep understanding of behavior and team dynamics to allow you to navigate, mediate and resolve conflict in and around the team

What are we about
LendInvest is a fast-growth Financial Technology business that is shaping the future of property finance. Since launching in 2008, we’ve funded over £1 billion of loans to buy, build or renovate almost 4,000 properties around the UK. We raised almost £50 million of equity backing to date from top tier investors such as Atomico, the European venture capital fund led by Skype founder, Niklas Zennström. In total we’ve raised and manage over $1 billion of funds for investors.
LendInvest is the world’s largest online marketplace for property lending and investing, and is one of the UK’s fastest growing FinTech companies.
What’s the team like?
We are using technology and innovation to make the process of owning and investing in property simple and straightforward. To date - we have loaned £1 billion, but we have set the bar much higher.
We hire people who are passionate about solving real-world problems in an exciting, dynamic, collaborative and fun environment.
Our engineering teams, split into cross functional teams that look after the investor, loan engine and borrower platforms, providing the technology and innovation that allows us to grow and evolve as a business. Without them, we could not achieve the goals we set as a company. From building a brand new microservices architecture to introducing 3rd party services to enable efficiencies or expansion, the challenges are never ending.
We rely heavily on React and Redux consuming RESTful APIs built using PHP7, Symfony3, Node.JS and MySQL. We use AWS, Docker and Kubernetes for infrastructure.
What’s the role like?
We are looking to double (again) the engineering team. We are therefore looking to grow our Engineering leadership team with an experienced and charismatic development manager who will lead multiple cross-functional teams consisting of c15-20 developers. The majority of the team is based in our London HQ, with a smaller near-shore team. You will partner with our existing experienced development manager/architect and report directly to the VP of Engineering.
You will have retained enough technical nous to gain the respect of the team but this is predominantly a hands-off role. You will be experienced in building dynamic teams who are at the forefront of our technology. You will also have significant experience in recruiting talent at all levels. Your role in recruitment, retention and the development of the team is core.
You will have proven experience in developing team members, training, coaching and mentoring them to achieve the most that they can for themselves and Lendinvest. You will partner with the rest of the Engineering leadership team to ensure that the overall team are keeping ahead of changes in technology and ensuring that their skills are continually developed and growing.
What you'll be doing
Recruit, onboard and retain the best engineering talent.
Conduct regular 1:1’s and performance reviews of direct reports.
Lead, develop and motivate your team by providing clear direction, opportunities for learning.
Manage any individual performance problems.
Deliver high quality, well designed technical solutions.
Help to foster and support a dynamic culture across the engineering team.
Help refine our agile processes so that we are continually improving.
Represent LendInvest at industry events alongside your peers
What you need to have
Experience of coaching, growing and motivating medium to large size agile development teams
Strong technical background in JavaScript and Front-end oriented development.
Current managerial experience of direct reports
High-levels of communication and interpersonal skills
Experience with testing, knowledge of functional design patterns, comfortable with working with microservices and cloud computing (AWS).
Experience in managing on-shore and near-shore teams is advantageous
Experience with Agile
What you’ll get in return:
Make a measurable difference. We’re here to change the way the world deals with property by making it accessible for all.
A relaxed open-plan working environment
Private Healthcare (Vitality)
Season Ticket Loan
Matched pension contributions up to 4%
Discretionary share-option scheme
25 days holiday
Enhance maternity/paternity pay
Various discounts/benefits via PerkBox (Including Gym, food and cinema)
Open bar from 5.30pm (4pm on Fridays)

At Blend, we’re dedicated to improving lending. We’re an enterprise technology company, but our product affects the most important purchase most people will make in their lifetime—their home. For homebuyers, our product means a clear, guided path to a new home. For lenders, it means modern, easy-to-use tools that let employees spend their time helping customers, rather than on repetitive, manual tasks. By aligning and modernizing this archaic industry, we believe everybody wins.
We need someone who’s driven to tackle hard problems—the harder the better. We’re motivated by the fact that our product won’t just affect the lives of a few people in the Bay Area—it affects people all over America, not to mention a foundational part of the U.S. economy. Founded in 2012 by former Palantir leaders, we’re currently backed by Greylock, Founders Fund, Andreessen Horowitz and other prominent investors.
As a Deployment Lead, you will understand Blend’s platform and the client’s needs to help deliver a solution that exceeds expectations. You will work with teams from across the company to rapidly implement and improve our product offerings providing project leadership in an autonomous delivery role. The ideal candidate is excited to work both independently and as part of a team in a fast paced, highly visible role. (Similar titles might include: Project Manager, Deployment Manager, Implementation Manager, Technical Project Manager, Forward Deployed Engineer, Client Solutions or Professional Services Lead)
Blend is an equal opportunity employer that values diversity, inclusion, and belonging. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Learn and master Blend products in order to solve customer business challenges as a configuration and implementation lead
