We’re a high-growth software company with a big mission: empowering K-12 district teams to do more with less.
At LINQ, we get K12. That’s why we help districts transform K-12 school operations with best-in-class, cloud-based software solutions built to help districts return more resources to classrooms. Integrating finance, HR, nutrition management, and payments into a single, secure platform, LINQ reduces administrative burden. LINQ is trusted by 30% of school districts across the U.S. to help them operate more efficiently and serve over 1 billion meals to 17 million students annually, process payroll for 364,000 educators, administrators, and staff, and engage with millions of families through the free LINQ Connect app.
Our team? They’re talented, committed, and fiercely loyal problem-solvers. At LINQ, you’ll find challenging and meaningful work, a team that respects and uplifts one another, and a commitment to constant improvement. Our customers love us because we’re attentive, patient, communicative, and solutions focused. They know they can count on us to not only anticipate their needs but to deliver the right answer every time.
ABOUT THE TEAM
Our School Nutrition team builds high-transaction-volume software that processes over 1 billion meal transactions annually across thousands of school districts. This is mission-critical infrastructure — it must work during the lunch rush, every school day, in cafeterias nationwide. We're building the next generation of nutrition management technology to help schools operate more efficiently while ensuring every student has access to healthy meals.
ABOUT THE POSITION
As an Engineering Manager for School Nutrition, you will lead the engineering team(s) building the platform that processes over 1 billion meal transactions annually across thousands of school districts. You'll partner closely with engineering leadership and product teams to ship mission-critical software — the kind that has to work during the lunch rush, every school day, in cafeterias nationwide.
This is a player/coach role that leans firmly toward coach. Roughly 80% of your time is spent leading people — hiring, coaching, unblocking, raising the bar, and driving delivery — and the remaining time is spent where a manager's technical leverage is highest: architecture and design reviews, high-stakes code review, pairing on hard problems, and jumping into the code when production needs you. You're not here to pick up sprint tickets, but you are close enough to the code that your engineers trust your technical instincts and you can carry real weight during an incident.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Lead and grow a team of engineers across a blended FTE/contractor model - running meaningful 1:1s, writing growth plans, managing performance honestly, and giving direct, kind, actionable feedback
- Own delivery outcomes for the School Nutrition platform - partnering with Product to shape the work, not just receive it, and driving predictable, high-quality execution
- Partner with the Sr. Director of Engineering and your senior engineers to shape and execute the modernization roadmap - evolving the platform toward .NET Core, cloud-native services, and PostgreSQL without destabilizing daily delivery
- Raise the hiring bar and own the hiring loop for your team - sourcing, interview calibration, and closing talent
- Contribute as a technical leader in ADRs, design reviews, and high-stakes code reviews; weigh in on tradeoffs with enough depth that your technical voice genuinely sharpens the work
- Drive healthy engineering practices - testing discipline, CI/CD, DORA/flow metrics, and incident response - using evidence to guide improvement rather than opinion alone
- Enable the team to adopt AI-assisted development tooling (Claude Code) effectively and responsibly, modeling the practices yourself
- Cultivate a culture where engineers are confident to change code - when people are afraid to touch something, we move slowly and we break things
- Communicate up, across, and down clearly in writing - roadmaps, status, risks, tradeoffs, and decisions
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Core Experience
- 3+ years managing software engineering teams, with a track record of shipping production software at quality
- Experience managing mixed FTE and contractor teams - with a clear sense of where those management approaches converge and diverge
- Strong technical background with substantial .NET / C# experience; you've shipped real systems and are sharp enough to contribute credibly in design and code reviews
- Comfort across Angular and SQL Server (or close-adjacent stacks you can ramp on quickly)
- Experience leading modernization work - evolving legacy systems incrementally without stopping the world
- Evidence-based management approach - familiar with DORA, SPACE, or equivalent frameworks, and honest about their limits
AWS & Cloud Architecture
- Production experience working in AWS environments; comfortable reasoning about Lambda, RDS, and common cloud-native services
- Appreciation for the tradeoffs between legacy and cloud-native approaches, and experience guiding teams through the transition
AI-Assisted Development
- Hands-on user of Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI-assisted coding environments
- Able to coach a team on effective, responsible use of AI tooling — and honest about where it works and where it doesn't
Additional Requirements
- Coaching-first instinct - you default to asking before telling, and help people think clearly rather than thinking for them
- Direct communicator - you can challenge respectfully, escalate clearly, and write a crisp exec update
- Fluent in Agile, DevOps, and CI/CD practices
WHAT WILL MAKE YOU STAND OUT
- Experience in school nutrition, food service, point-of-sale systems, or K-12 EdTech
- Background managing teams that support high-transaction-volume, mission-critical systems (POS, payments, or similar)
- Experience running blended onshore/offshore or FTE/contractor engineering teams at scale
- Experience splitting or merging teams as organizational scope evolves
- Hands-on experience with .NET Core, AWS Lambda, and PostgreSQL (our direction of travel)
- Experience with offline-first or intermittent-connectivity patterns
- Contributions to engineering excellence programs, management communities of practice, or internal leadership development

ABOUT THE TEAM
Our Payments team builds the platform that moves real money between school districts, families, and payment partners nationwide. Every transaction matters — a parent loading lunch money before the bell, a cafeteria terminal charging at the register, a nightly settlement landing in a district's bank account. Reliability, accuracy, and financial integrity aren't features - they're the floor. We're building the next generation of K-12 payments, giving districts confidence in their funds and families a seamless way to pay for what their students rely on every day.
ABOUT THE POSITION
As an Engineering Manager for Payments, you will lead the engineering team(s) that own the payment engine and admin tooling behind LINQ's payments platform - the software responsible for moving real money between school districts, families, and LINQ's payment partners. You'll partner closely with the Sr. Director of Engineering, senior engineers on your team, and Product leadership to ship software where reliability, data accuracy, and operational rigor are non-negotiable.
This is a player/coach role that leans firmly toward coach. Roughly 80% of your time is spent leading people - hiring, coaching, unblocking, raising the bar, and driving delivery - and the remaining time is spent where a manager's technical leverage is highest: architecture and design reviews, high-stakes code review, pairing on hard problems, and jumping into the code when production needs you. You're not here to pick up sprint tickets, but you are close enough to the code that your engineers trust your technical instincts and you can carry real weight during an incident - which matters more in payments than almost anywhere else.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Lead and grow a team of engineers across a blended FTE/contractor model - running meaningful 1:1s, writing growth plans, managing performance honestly, and giving direct, kind, actionable feedback
- Own delivery outcomes for the Payments platform - partnering with Product to shape the work, not just receive it, and driving predictable, high-quality execution
- Partner with the Sr. Director of Engineering and your engineers to shape and execute the technical roadmap - balancing new product capabilities, infrastructure modernization, and platform reliability
- Keep operational excellence front and center - reconciliation, webhook resilience, retry and idempotency patterns, and data accuracy in the face of third-party outages are the baseline expectation, not a stretch goal
- Raise the hiring bar and own the hiring loop for your team - sourcing, interview calibration, and closing talent
- Contribute as a technical leader in ADRs, design reviews, and high-stakes code reviews; weigh in on tradeoffs with enough depth that your technical voice genuinely sharpens the work

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Core Experience
- 3+ years managing software engineering teams, with a track record of shipping production software at quality
- Experience managing mixed FTE and contractor teams - with a clear sense of where those management approaches converge and diverge
- Strong technical background in Node.js and modern JavaScript/TypeScript service development; you've shipped real systems and are sharp enough to contribute credibly in design and code reviews
- Comfort with Angular or a close-adjacent modern front-end framework
- Hands-on experience leading teams that build payments, fintech, or other integration-heavy systems where data accuracy, idempotency, and reconciliation with external systems are core concerns
- Evidence-based management approach - familiar with DORA, SPACE, or equivalent frameworks, and honest about their limits
AWS & Cloud Architecture
- Production experience working in AWS environments; comfortable reasoning about container-based deployment (ECS/EKS), serverless services, and managed databases
- Experience leading teams through infrastructure modernization (e.g., containerization migrations) without disrupting delivery
Payments & Integration Domain
- Familiarity with payment gateway integrations, tokenization, settlement flows, and dispute/chargeback management
- Understanding of PCI DSS scope reduction strategies and the operational realities of relying on tokenization vendors
- Demonstrated experience hardening integrations with unreliable third-party systems - webhook handling, reconciliation jobs, eventual consistency, and graceful degradation
AI-Assisted Development
- Hands-on user of Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI-assisted coding environments
- Able to coach a team on effective, responsible use of AI tooling — and honest about where it works and where it doesn't
Additional Requirements
- Coaching-first instinct - you default to asking before telling, and help people think clearly rather than thinking for them

- Hands-on experience with terminal/EMV or in-person payment integrations
