Description & Requirements

Who we are looking for

We’re hiring an Engineering Manager who blends technical depth with people leadership. You’ll grow high-performing teams, co-own architecture with Tech Leads, and create conditions where engineers do the best work of their careers. You’ll raise engineering excellence (CI/CD, IaC, testing, observability/SRE), manage capacity and delivery with Product/Design, and guide incident response and post-mortems—all while shipping reliable software for a once-in-a-generation, real-time event. 

Required skills & experience:


  • 7+ years in software engineering, including 3+ years of people leadership (EM/Lead/TPM). 
  • Proven delivery of high-scale consumer/media or event-driven platforms on AWS/Azure/GCP. 
  • Strong grasp of distributed systems, API-first design, messaging/streaming, caching, and data stores (SQL/NoSQL). 
  • Solid SDLC practices, security & privacy by design, accessibility, and performance engineering fundamentals. 
  • Tooling: GitHub/GitLab, CI pipelines, IaC (Terraform/CDK), monitoring/alerting (e.g., Datadog, Grafana, CloudWatch), Jira/Confluence. 
  • Excellent communication in cross-functional, international settings; English C1+.
  • Ability to travel up to 20% (planning, workshops, event rehearsals). 

 

Nice to have:


  • Node.js leadership in backend teams; TypeScript at scale; JVM/.NET or Go a plus. 
  • Event streaming (Kafka/Kinesis/PubSub), real-time data, edge/CDN, media/streaming, and peak-load optimization. 
  • SRE/observability depth (SLO design, tracing, chaos/incident drills) or performance/reliability engineering background. 
Your future role
  • Lead squads: hiring, onboarding, mentoring, career growth, performance, and healthy engineering culture. 
  • Co-own architecture & roadmap: API-first, cloud-native, event-driven services; partner with Tech Leads on design reviews and technical strategy. 
  • Raise engineering bar: establish standards for code quality, testing strategy, CI/CD, IaC, security, observability, and SLOs/error budgets. 
  • Plan & deliver: manage team capacity, sequencing, and commitments with Product/Design; ensure predictable delivery and clear trade-offs. 
  • Operate reliably: run incident response, post-mortems, and continuous improvement loops; reduce MTTR and change failure rate. 
  • Hands-on where it matters: review critical PRs, support architectural spikes, unblock teams, and mentor on performance/reliability. 
  • Partner externally: collaborate with stakeholders, vendors, and client tech leaders; communicate decision-ready status and risks. 
  • Data-driven leadership: use flow/DORA metrics and team health signals to steer outcomes and invest in the right improvements. 

What we offer
  • Collaborate with top experts in delivery, design, architecture, and engineering.
  • Annual Performance Bonus – rewarding excellence and dedication.
  • Hybrid/remote flexibility, modern tooling, learning budget, mentorship, and clear growth pathways.
  • Competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and real ownership of outcomes.
  • Extended Health and Pension Coverage – including Medicover services and contributions to health and pension funds.
  • Group Life and DCE Travel Insurance – comprehensive insurance for security and peace of mind.
  • Childcare Contributions – support for nursery or kindergarten services.
  • BeWell 360 Program – access to sports activities, mental health workshops, gym discounts, and employee assistance.
  • Professional Development – skill-enhancing training and career advancement opportunities.
  • SZÉP Card – for accommodation, dining, and recreation.
