About the Role

The Foundations Alliance builds tools and infrastructure for HelloFresh engineering teams. Cloud Runtime provides a reliable, high-performance multi-cluster container platform enabling 99.99% uptime, high performance, low latency, and minimal operational overhead for all HelloFresh engineers. As Engineering Manager for Cloud Runtime, you will lead a platform engineering squad responsible for the container platform, networking, and traffic routing supporting over 1,000 production services across multiple continents. You will collaborate with the Product Manager to execute the platform strategy and ensure the reliability and cost-efficiency of the platform.

Responsibilities

  • Lead, grow, and support a distributed squad of platform engineers, owning hiring, development, and performance.
  • Build and maintain an engineering roadmap spanning one to two quarters, making explicit trade-offs between features, timelines, and quality.
  • Drive core platform commitments: expanding availability, increasing adoption of the container platform and multi-region deployments, and reducing infrastructure cost.
  • Own the squad's operational metrics and be accountable for moving them.
  • Facilitate and role-model postmortems, driving follow-through on action items.
  • Manage relationships with key infrastructure vendors and work with Security on audit and compliance requirements.
  • Partner with Observability, Release Engineering, and Security squads on tightly coupled roadmaps and bidirectional dependencies.
  • Foster an inclusive and open working environment, creating documentation and knowledge sharing to reduce single-person dependency.

Requirements

  • Experience managing a team of engineers, including hiring, performance management, and career development.
  • Experience leading a team split across more than one location.
  • Strong technical background in cloud infrastructure with hands-on experience of Kubernetes and at least one major cloud platform.
  • Familiarity with service mesh, API gateways, infrastructure as code, GitOps-style deployment, and secrets management.
  • Ability to contribute technically when needed, including reviewing code, pairing on problems, or debugging incidents.
  • Experience owning production systems with meaningful availability targets, including incident response and on-call practices.
  • Judgement about reversible vs. irreversible decisions, with a willingness to front-load design effort on irreversible ones.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, including the ability to decline requests not on the roadmap.
  • Clear written communication and strong asynchronous collaboration skills.
