    • Owning the technical output and standards for the team, ensuring engineering and operational excellence.
    • Actively involved in the definition and fulfillment of the team's strategy and bringing technical perspective into account.
    • Giving useful and effective feedback, actively seeking to improve the entire team by regularly sharing knowledge and mentoring others.
    • Stepping up, actively driving team topics and supporting other team members.
    • Communicating with cross-functional stakeholders and leadership, targeted for the audience.
    • Over 7 years of software engineering experience in building and designing scalable applications with over 2 years of experience leading software engineering teams to solve complex problems.

    • Experience with containerization and container orchestration (Docker and Kubernetes preferred) in a cloud environment (AWS preferred).
    • Proficiency in different types of testing strategies (testing pyramid).
    • Experience building a technical strategy and translating it into reality.
    • A proven track record of enabling your teammates and amplifying their technical abilities by mentoring and coaching.
    • Comfortable dealing with uncertainty and managing risk.
    • Strong written and spoken communication skills.
    Personio is an equal opportunities employer, committed to building an integrative culture where everyone feels welcomed and supported. We embrace uniqueness and understand that our diverse, values-driven culture makes us stronger.
