工程经理（核心能力）

WELCOME TO OLX

We're building marketplace sustainable ecosystems that millions of people depend on every month – to buy and sell cars, find homes, land jobs, and trade secondhand goods. It's commerce that matters: safe, smart, and environmentally responsible.
We do this with courage to innovate, commitment to outcomes, collaboration across 50+ nationalities and 7 markets, and a customer-led approach that puts real people first. Add a desire to win – and you get a culture that's ambitious, fast-moving, and built on trust.
Our brands – including AutoTrader, OLX, Otomoto Property24, and more – are loved by millions. And we're backed by Prosus, one of the world's largest tech investors.
Join OLX and see how far you can go.
This role will be based in Poland, and you need to be residing in the country already.

As an Engineering Manager, you'll lead software engineers building and scaling critical platforms that power the OLX engineering ecosystem. You'll combine strong people leadership with enough technical depth to guide major projects, shape technical direction, and help the team solve complex platform challenges.

This is not a generalist Engineering Manager role. Previous experience leading an engineering team in a Platform environment is mandatory. We need someone who understands what it means to build platforms for other engineers and the unique challenges that come with balancing developer experience, reliability, scalability, standardisation, and team autonomy.

You'll capture requirements, shape ambitious but balanced project scope, lead technical initiatives, and partner across teams to solve technical problems and ensure smooth adoption and implementation of platform solutions. Our Platform environment is a mix of software engineering, APIs, distributed systems, infrastructure, DevOps, scalability, and reliability.

We're looking for someone who can operate at both levels: developing people and leading a Platform team, while providing the technical and organisational leadership needed to make the platform successful.

What you will be doing:

• Lead by example and manage a team of talented engineers, providing technical guidance, mentorship, and career development support;

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including data science and data engineering managers, and product managers to define project goals, scope, and deliverables;

• Drive the end-to-end development process, from design to implementation and deployment, ensuring high-quality and scalable solutions (with controlled cost);

• Identify and prioritize technical initiatives, considering ROI, scalability, and performance requirements;

• Implement modern software development practices, including agile methodologies, continuous integration, and deployment, to ensure efficient and effective project delivery;

• Collaborate with stakeholders to gather and analyze requirements, ensuring that the platform meets customer needs and provides an exceptional user experience;

• Foster a collaborative and inclusive team culture, promoting knowledge sharing, innovation, and continuous improvement.

What you have:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field;

• Track record of proven people management experience (3+ years) focused on developing and growing people;

• 5+ years of professional experience in software development.

• Proven experience in designing and developing large-scale, high-traffic systems;

• Familiarity with microservices architecture and container orchestration (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes, Streaming architectures);

• Strong knowledge of data structures, and software design patterns;

• Good understanding and ideally successful application of AI/ML;

• Experience with modern software development practices, such as agile methodologies, continuous integration, and deployment;

• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a team environment;

• Proficient in English, with strong verbal and written communication skills.

Our benefits:

• Monthly salary and an annual bonus (15%)

• Training and conference budget, and free access to Udemy courses

• A benefits package with 300 points on the Mybenefit platform per month, private medical care provided by Luxmed, Ask Henry services, and much more

• IP rights’ costs - 80%

• 100% remote work (as well as the possibility of working from our offices in Poznan and Warsaw)
