At Lendbuzz, we believe financial opportunity should be more personalized and fair. We develop innovative technologies that provide underserved and overlooked borrowers with better access to credit. While our core operations are based in the United States, we are excited to be setting up our presence in Argentina as we continue to grow globally. From our employees to our dealers, partners, and borrowers, we’ve built a company and a culture around a resolute belief in the promise and power of diversity. We value independent and critical thinking - and we’re looking forward to building a strong local team in Argentina to support our mission.

Lendbuzz is expanding its global engineering presence with a new hub in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and we are hiring our first local engineering leader. As an Engineering Manager & Site Lead, you will play a dual role:

Engineering Leadership: Hire and guide a team of engineers to design, build, and deliver critical functionality for Lendbuzz’s platform, applying best-in-class architectural and development practices.

Site Leadership: Scale the Buenos Aires office, establish foundational engineering processes, and shape a high-performance, collaborative culture.

This role is ideal for a hands-on technical leader who can contribute directly to complex systems while mentoring and motivating a growing team. You will help define processes, standards, and culture for a new engineering site and set the foundation for long-term growth.

Growth Opportunity

As the Buenos Aires office expands, this role will evolve to oversee multiple teams and functions. You will help shape the strategic direction of Lendbuzz’s engineering presence in Argentina and become a key contributor to our global technology leadership, with opportunities for senior leadership and broad organizational impact as the site scales through 2026 and beyond.
