We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Search team . The role entails contributing to the product & technical domains of excellence in the main API product that enables large retailers to seamlessly purchase tickets from bus & rail carriers worldwide.

This is a highly skilled, senior engineering team operating in a highly complex, high-throughput, and low-latency domain.

You will be stepping into an area where performance and cost-efficiency are critical, and your biggest challenge will be technical and strategic. With our platform scaling rapidly, your mission is to prepare our architecture for 10x growth. We need a hands-on leader who still fundamentally thinks of themselves as an Engineer, capable of diving deep into the technical weeds while steering the domain's business goals.

What you will do:

Manage, lead, and support an experienced team of engineers, providing coaching, alignment, and performance management.

Take ownership of domain health, ensuring our high-throughput, low-latency systems are robust, scalable, and consistently meeting performance goals.

Drive profitability and cost optimisation, specifically tackling architectural challenges to scale our system 10x without allowing our current infrastructure and storage costs to multiply exponentially.

Act as a hands-on technical leader, staying close to the code, system design, and architecture in a highly complex problem space.

Workplace:

We are a remote-first company with teams located around the Globe and a HQ in Berlin.

Who you are:

You are an experienced people leader who has successfully managed and supported senior engineering teams.

You think of yourself as an Engineer at heart; you are highly technical, hands-on, and capable of understanding and guiding deeply complex system architectures.

You have a proven track record building, maintaining, and scaling high-throughput, low-latency distributed systems.

You bring a strong business and resource-optimization mindset, with the ability to make strategic architectural decisions that directly impact company profitability and infrastructure costs.

You have strong programming experience in any modern backend language and are excited to lead new development in Go. You are also adaptable and willing to learn.

You show extreme ownership over your domain's health and are comfortable operating in an environment where technical challenges far outweigh basic language-level syntax issues.

You are fluent in English, both verbally and in writing.

What you can expect:

Make a global impact. Help shape how millions of people discover and book ground transportation worldwide.

Own your work. Take responsibility from day one and see the direct impact of your contributions.
