WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE EXCITING
- Own engineering end to end (execution, quality, reliability, and people), reporting to our CTO at Almedia, Germany's fastest-growing company by YoY revenue.
- Shape a lean, high-performing team with AI as core to the way the team ships.
- Get engineers onto the highest-impact work, with a shared way of prioritising alongside Product and Design.
YOUR MISSION
- Partner with the executive team, Product, and Design to turn ideas into experiments and successful releases.
- Make AI-native workflows the default, cutting the time from hypothesis to live experiment to decision, so more experiments reach customers without more defects.
- Build a QA function that prevents defects and keeps the site reliably up, with the authority to surface release risk early.
- Build the leadership bench and engineering culture that let the org keep compounding.
WHAT YOU BRING
- Hands-on leader, strong in TypeScript, who writes and reviews code. This is how everyone operates here, starting with our CTO.
- Already rethought how a team works with AI and shipped faster because of it.
- Bonus: React Native, Python, data pipelines.
YOUR TRACK RECORD
- Scaled engineering organisations through significant business growth, developing engineering managers.
- Led Frontend, Backend, and Reliability functions, and know how to design the operating model that lets them move together at speed.
- Partnered closely with Product and Design, turning business priorities into a shared roadmap.
- Know how to connect engineering decisions to business outcomes, not just delivery metrics.
