Descrição da oferta de emprego

Signicat is a pioneering Pan-European Digital Identity Service Provider, supporting over 170 data sources for seamless identity verification. Trusted by governments, financial institutions, and businesses worldwide. Such as General Financing, Compensa Life, Telia, Rimi, Volvo, and many more.

Today, Signicat employs over 530 people across 20 offices in 15 European countries. We work with leading banks, fintechs, telcos, public authorities, healthcare providers, and enterprises across retail and mobility to deliver trusted digital identity and onboarding solutions at scale.

Joining Signicat means contributing to a mission that has a real impact on how society works and trusting each other in an increasingly digital world.

Since 2007, Signicat has been steadily growing organically and through strategic acquisitions, which led us to become a pioneering Pan-European Digital Identity Service Provider (DISP). We support 170+ data sources to identify businesses and individuals – from national eIDs, ID-document scanning, and biometric verification to data sources for AML and KYC checks, all accessible through a single integration point.

The Role

As a hands-on Engineering Manager, you will combine Java programming with engineering and technical leadership for one of our teams working in the domain of Identity Proofing. You will be responsible for growing and supporting the team, driving delivery, prioritizing the roadmap and backlog together with the Product Owner and other stakeholders, and balancing new capabilities with reliability, operational excellence, and technical debt.

The team is currently working on Signicat's next-generation offering for Identity Proofing by orchestrating several means available in the Signicat portfolio, such as NFC chip reading and live video identifications, in order to satisfy the highest compliance requirements in the market for financial services and similar.

How You'll Make An Impact

• Lead and develop a high-performing engineering team, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
• Drive the evolution of Signicat's Identity Proofing platform, ensuring it remains secure, scalable, reliable, and ready for future growth.
• Collaborate closely with architects, engineering teams, and stakeholders across the company to deliver capabilities that satisfy ever-changing market needs.
• Guide architectural and technical decisions within the team while promoting engineering best practices, observability, automation, and operational excellence.

Why We’ll Love You

• You are an experienced engineering leader who enjoys building high-performing teams as much as building great technology.
• You have a strong software engineering background and are comfortable discussing architecture, distributed systems, and cloud-native platforms with experienced engineers.
• You thrive at the intersection of engineering and product, translating business needs into technical priorities and delivery plans.
• You are an excellent communicator who builds trusted relationships with engineers, architects, and business stakeholders alike.
• You bring deep expertise in the Java ecosystem, enabling you to provide strong technical leadership, mentor developers, and guide architectural decisions for high-scale SaaS services.
• You enjoy coaching others, creating clarity, and enabling teams to do their best work.
