About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease. We’re headquartered in NYC, and offer hybrid NY-based (four days/week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

Betterment Advisor Solutions (BAS) provides financial solutions to help advisors scale their practice and deliver a high-quality, personalized client experience. This product enables automated portfolio management, custom portfolio building, easy paperless onboarding, and back-office automation along with other key features for Advisors. Our BAS engineering teams work closely with the teams and features that are responsible for our Betterment consumer experience.

The Advisor Solutions team automates and refines the technical integrations — APIs, datasets, and background processes across internal and external applications — that make Betterment the most efficient solution for advisors. The team also owns how advisors access that data directly, through in-app reports and visualizations, public APIs, and MCP access.

As the Sr. Engineering Manager for the Advisor Solutions Team, you’ll collaborate closely with product management and cross-functional stakeholders to develop a mission-aligned roadmap and manage its execution with your team. You’ll also partner with engineers on your team and across the organization to identify, refine, and deliver technical strategies that help us accelerate the growth of our BAS business. You’ll play a critical role between helping deliver a roadmap, partnering with recruiting to build your team, and working with stakeholders from various disciplines to deliver crucial solutions.
