Salary
💰 €5,000 - €7,600 per month
About the role
- Lead the squad and keep delivery consistent: run sprint rituals, track progress, and make sure commitments land.
- Own people leadership: hire, mentor, and develop engineers; keep the team healthy and performing.
- Manage capacity, risk, and dependencies: plan realistically, unblock fast, and handle escalations early.
- Align scope and priorities with the Product Owner: keep stakeholders aligned and avoid churn.
- Work in the triad with the TL and PO: support the Tech Lead on technical focus/feasibility, and help build a transparent, high-performing culture (without owning architecture).
Requirements
- Proven experience leading an engineering team (hiring, coaching, performance, delivery ownership)
- Solid understanding of modern data systems (ETL/ELT, data warehouses/lakes, orchestration, data modeling)
- Comfortable working with data tooling and concepts (SQL, pipelines, monitoring, data quality), even if not a hands-on specialist
- Strong stakeholder management: can translate business needs into a clear plan and keep people aligned
- Pragmatic, ownership-driven mindset: can make trade-offs, push standards, and improve reliability without slowing the team down.
- Nice to have:
- Experience with high-scale data pipelines (large volumes, frequent updates, strict SLAs)
- Background in platform/data infrastructure (compute/storage optimization, reliability, cost control)
- Hands-on exposure to data quality/observability tooling and setting SLAs/SLOs for data
- Familiarity with governance/security topics (PII handling, access control, retention)
- Experience working in product-focused teams where data directly powers customer-facing features
Benefits
- expansive benefit package covering learning
