We’re looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead Financial Experience (FinXP), the team that builds how practices and patients deal with money at Nelly.
That covers how a patient says yes to a treatment they can’t pay for upfront, and how delivered care becomes an invoice, then a payment, then cash in the practice’s account. You’ll lead a team whose work shows up directly in what practices earn and in what Nelly earns.
The problem space: Practices rarely lose revenue because care isn’t needed. They lose it at two points. Before treatment, patients delay or decline because they can’t pay upfront. After treatment, revenue leaks on its way to cash: invoices go out late or wrong, payments get chased by hand, and billing runs through manual steps. The domain Financial OS closes both gaps. We offer financing at the moment the patient decides, through installment plans and factoring, and we turn every delivered treatment into a correct invoice and cash in the practice’s account. Because we sit where treatment is planned, we know what it’s worth and whether it is converted before we take on the risk, which no bank or payment provider can do. We earn a share of the revenue we help collect, so the practice’s growth is our growth.
The domain has two teams. Financial Platform builds the infrastructure that moves money and keeps compliant records of it. Financial Experience builds everything doctors, practice staff, patients and our own teams touch, across the Doctor Portal, Patient Portal and Backoffice.
About Nelly
We are building the AI-Driven Financial Operating System for European healthcare, solving the biggest challenges for patients and practices. We create what no bank or software platform can handle. Our all-in-one platform transforms chaotic administrative processes into intelligent, automated workflows, from patient care to billing to next-generation payments. Because we truly believe: healthcare should be less about paperwork and more about people.
Why? Because Europe is facing a massive shortage of medical professionals. And if we don't rethink the way practices work, the system won't be able to keep up. With our Series B funding of over €50 million from world-class investors, we are turning our vision into reality.
What sets us apart: We work with the best team, which is why we give everything together every day. We believe in Talent Density, because exceptional people make everyone around them better. At Nelly, we move fast and expect everyone to keep up. Stagnation isn’t an option, which is why we invest heavily in growth. AI is an essential part of how we work at Nelly. We expect you to use it every day and give you everything you need to do so. You get trust and ownership and we expect you to speak up, even when it's uncomfortable.
