Jobbeschreibung

The Mission:

We are a global technology pioneer dedicated to redefining data ownership and digital privacy. In an era of centralised data silos, we are building the "trust layer" of the internet - infrastructure that empowers individuals and businesses to securely exchange data and manage their digital identities with total autonomy.

The Role:

We are seeking a technical leader to oversee multiple engineering squads building our core platform. This role is a sophisticated blend of people leadership and technical strategy. You will coach managers and staff engineers while remaining a key voice in architectural decisions, ensuring our distributed systems remain secure, scalable, and performant.

Technical Environment:

Our teams work across the full stack using TypeScript, Node.js, and React, with mobile components in Flutter/Dart. On the backend, we are a polyglot environment; while we use Rust for performance-critical services, we value deep expertise in any modern backend language (such as Java, Go, or C#) provided you have a strong grasp of distributed systems and cloud-native architecture (AWS).

What is in it for you:

• Modern Working: Hybrid model with flexible hours to suit your life.


• Rest & Recharge: An unlimited holiday policy.


• Compensation: Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package.


• Growth: A dedicated learning budget and the chance to work in a truly international, mission-driven environment.


• Allowances: Support for your home office, mobile phone, and an Urban Sports Club membership.

You will be a great match if you:

• Have a proven track record of leading multiple engineering teams in high-growth, global environments.


• Are a "Leader of Leaders" who excels at mentoring managers and fostering inclusive, high-performing cultures.


• Possess deep backend expertise in distributed systems, microservices, and cloud environments (ideally AWS).


• Are interested in (or have experience with) privacy by design, cryptography, or identity/authentication domains.


• Thrive in fast-moving environments where you can balance strategic vision with practical, high-speed execution.
