Software Engineering, Other Engineering
Posted on Dec 9, 2025
Apply now

This is an opportunity to take a key leadership position, steering a high-caliber cross-functional engineering team within our R&D organisation. You will be responsible for defining the strategy, promoting the best practices, and ensuring high-quality, impactful delivery that directly serves our global clients.

We are seeking a proactive leader who will attend our Kraków office twice per week to foster essential collaboration and team cohesion.

The Mission: Drive High-Performance Delivery

As an Engineering Manager, you lead the charge in defining the 'how.' Your primary goal is to ensure a balanced, high-performing team that consistently raises the bar and delivers software that exceeds the high expectations of our partners, ensuring robust security, performance, and reliability.

●Lead, mentor, and grow a best-in-class cross-functional software engineering team.

●Define the team's operating cadence, talent acquisition, and professional development strategies.

●Oversee the product roadmap, ensuring consistent, predictable, and timely delivery.

What you'll do

Team & People Management

You cultivate an environment where continuous personal and technical improvement is the standard. You build trust through transparency, ensuring that when something isn't working, you speak up directly and honestly to guide self-evaluation and diagnosis. You focus on removing roadblocks and anti-patterns that impact performance, enabling everyone to grow from clear, actionable feedback.

Delivery & Engineering Management

You own the delivery commitment. You are empowered to make decisions quickly and keep projects moving forward without getting bogged down in endless deliberation, setting ambitious but realistic deadlines and seeing them through. You establish processes that constantly look beyond today's standards, continually elevating the quality of craftsmanship, predictability, and output to maintain our competitive edge.

Strategy & Collaboration

Before any sprint begins, you challenge assumptions and drill down to the fundamental problem we are truly solving, ensuring clarity before coding begins. You are an instrumental facilitator, breaking down silos and connecting team efforts across domains and departments to achieve shared outcomes. You take complex technical challenges and abstract them into clear, digestible, and understandable steps, making the final product intuitive and efficient for the end-user.

Who you are

  • We are seeking a high-energy team player, always constructive and passionate about software development and delivery.
  • Experience: Minimum of 2 years leading multi-disciplinary Agile development team. Experience within a product company, banking, payments, or SaaS is a plus.
  • Technical Acumen: Solid prior career experience as a Software Engineer and a deep understanding of CI/CD, automated testing, release management, and tooling (Atlassian, Git).
  • Agile Expertise: Proven mastery of Agile software development practices (Scrum, Kanban, or SAFe).
  • Leadership Skills: Strong ability to persuade, inspire, and motivate others. You thrive in a dynamic environment, staying flexible and adaptable to rapid growth and change.
  • Communication: Excellent English speaking, writing, and presentation skills, able to navigate stakeholders from team members to senior leadership. Why Join Us? Be part of an organization that impacts the 100+ million end-customers our global clients serve daily. We believe in providing the support and resources necessary for you to succeed. Empowering Benefits & Perks
  • Professional Growth: We commit to your development with a generous €1000 EUR annual budget.
  • Well-being: Comprehensive health support with the Luxmed Comprehensive Gold package.
  • Office Perks (2 days/week): When in the Kraków office, enjoy complimentary lunch, breakfast, and access to physiotherapy services.
