• We can boldly say that our platform is the number 1 among SaaS solutions for e-commerce.
• Due to the scale, we solve complex performance problems.

What will you be doing?

• Conducting post-incident reviews and optimizing response processes.
• Coordinating complex cross-team and cross-functional initiatives, in cooperation with the Product Manager, Design, and other technical teams.

What is important to us?

• Min. 4 years of experience as an Engineering Manager, Team Lead, or related position (team management).
• Deep understanding of software engineering and system architecture.
• Very good knowledge of tools, frameworks, and technologies used in modern product teams (e.g., modular monolith, microservices architectures, CI/CD, DevOps practices, monitoring, and logging).
• Experience in leading technological and architectural initiatives.
• Practical knowledge and implementation of quality control practices, testing, and observability metrics (SLIs, SLOs).
• Experience in responding to incidents and conducting post-incident activities (coordination, post-mortems, process improvements, building operational resilience).
• Experience in measuring and improving development processes (DORA/DevOps).
• Creating space for innovation, experimentation, and continuous improvement in the team.
• Conscious use of AI tools in work – selecting the tool for the task (Copilot/Cursor, ChatGPT/Claude) and critical assessment of the quality of AI-generated code.
