About the Role

Almedia is building the future of marketing by rewarding users for engaging with advertisers. We are offering a new way for the world's largest companies to acquire users.

Responsibilities

  • Own the engineering function end to end: execution, quality, reliability, and people.
  • Design and evolve the engineering operating model as the company scales, defining ownership, processes, and the leadership bench.
  • Partner directly with the CTO, the executive team, and Product to set technical direction and ensure delivery against company strategy.
  • Ensure predictable, high-quality delivery as the company scales without compromising reliability.
  • Hire, develop, and retain a strong engineering leadership team, raising the bar on talent across the org.
  • Make the engineering organisation faster, more reliable, and more effective as we scale.
  • Shape both short-term execution and long-term platform and architectural strategy.
  • Build a leadership bench that lets the org keep compounding without depending on any single individual.
  • Build and maintain a strong engineering culture that attracts and retains top talent in Berlin.
  • Improve collaboration and alignment across product, engineering, and other stakeholders.

Requirements
