Lead Engineer (Compliance)

Team Lead - Austria/Germany/Poland (Remote with Bi-Monthly Office Visits in Vienna)

You are a technical problem solver who enjoys managing people...So you must often wonder how you have your cake and eat it too.

You’re looking for a mostly remote role where you can continue to develop your leadership style within a small team. But you also enjoy making technical decisions and want to stay hands-on in your work.

The cherry on top of the cake, it's important to work for someone who recognizes your exceptional skills as an engineer and gives you the freedom to approach tasks in your own way. But they should also provide the insights and discussions necessary to help you make strong technical decisions for the specific part of the product you will manage.

This opportunity offers you that genuine autonomy and opportunity for growth. Your manager, Daniel, will encourage you to share your ideas and insights based on your experience and to implement them for the benefit of the product you will oversee. 

In this role, you will lead a team of three senior engineers who are focused on building and maintaining the compliance features of the product. You will be responsible for creating and implementing the roadmap to ensure that features relating to upcoming legislative requirements are there before users even know they need them.

The company is a Series B-funded startup that uses AI to monitor threats to large supply chains. They have a legitimate use case and case studies from real clients to back it up. The space is complex, and monitoring real-time data is at the core of what they do.

Experience Needed to Be a Good Fit:

• Previous experience leading a team (this can include ad-hoc stepping up into a leadership role)
• Full Stack Engineering - although back-end focus is likely where your strong game is. 
• Technical background in software development using JVM languages
• Bonus points if you have experience with Kotlin and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

FAQs:

Can I work remotely?

Yes, the role is mostly remote, but you are expected to visit the office in Vienna a few times each month, as your engineering team is based there. It’s important that you enjoy collaborating in person for workshops and other essential activities.  

What is the salary?

Up to €90,000 (plus performance bonus and other perks)
