Engineering Manager (m/w/d)

Conceptboard

DEINE AUFGABEN Deine Mission Wir bauen Software, die komplexen Teams hilft, gemeinsam klarer zu denken – über Organisationsgrenzen, Zeitzonen und Sicherheitsanforderungen hinweg. Zu unseren Kunden zählen Behörden, Unternehmen und Verteidigungsorganisationen, die sich auf uns verlassen: nicht nur als Kollaborationslösung, sondern auch in Sachen Datenhoheit und Betriebssicherheit. Das ist ein hoher Anspruch – und wir nehmen ihn ernst. Als Engineering Manager verantwortest du zwei Produktteams (Frontend, Backend, Fullstack) von Anfang bis Ende. Du sorgst nicht nur dafür, dass alles läuft – du schaffst die Voraussetzungen dafür, dass gutes Engineering überhaupt möglich ist. Du arbeitest am System, nicht nur darin: Du baust das Operating Model auf, das planbare Delivery und echtes Wachstum ermöglicht. Das ist eine Build-Rolle – du richtest ein, was noch nicht existiert, und hältst es zusammen, wenn es steht. Deine Aufgaben * Führung der Engineers – Du übernimmst Verantwortung für das Performance Management von Anfang bis Ende: regelmäßige 1:1s, ehrliches Feedback, individuelle Entwicklungspläne – und die schwierigen Gespräche, die dazugehören, wenn du Menschen wirklich weiterbringen willst. Du steuerst außerdem den Hiring-Prozess für deine Teams. * Delivery, Qualität und Flow – Du bist verantwortlich für die Ergebnisse deiner Teams: planbare Lieferung, klare Qualitätsstandards und Outcome-KPIs, die du mitdefinierst und konsequent nachverfolgst. * Operating Model – Du etablierst die Routinen, Prozesse und Leitplanken (Engineering-Standards, Sicherheit, Compliance), die dafür sorgen, dass deine Teams gut arbeiten können – und stellst sicher, dass diese auch wirklich gelebt werden. * Priorisierung und Fokus – Du hilfst deinen Teams, den richtigen Ausgleich zwischen Geschwindigkeit, Qualität, Scope und Impact zu finden. Du übersetzt Produkt- und Unternehmensstrategie in konkrete Engineering-Prioritäten – und schützt den Fokus, wenn es darauf ankommt. * Beitrag auf Führungsebene – Du bringst technische und delivery-relevante Themen auf die Agenda der Führungsebene. Du bist aktiver Teil des Tech-Leadership-Teams und gestaltest die technische Ausrichtung von Conceptboard mit. DEIN PROFIL Must Haves * Du hast Performance Management, Growth und Hiring wirklich eigenverantwortlich vorangetrieben - inklusive Job Descriptions, Interviews und allem was dazu gehört. * Du scheust schwierige Gespräche nicht, sondern betrachtest sie als Teil deiner Arbeit. * Du verfügst über ein ausgeprägtes Gespür für Teamstrukturen und weißt, wie man Teams aufbaut, die strategische Prioritäten tatsächlich umsetzen können, statt nur den Status quo aufrechtzuerhalten. * Du kannst nachweislich nachhaltige Engineering Operating Models von Grund auf aufbauen – Erfahrung mit der Sanierung von Teams ist hier entscheidend.  * Bereits gut funktionierende Teams zu leiten, ist der einfache Teil. Die Verantwortung für die Engineering Culture – die Practices, die Standards, die Routinen – zu übernehmen, ist etwas, das du aktiv anstrebst. * Du verfügst über technisches Fachwissen, um bei den Engineers auf Augenhöhe mitzureden, Kompromisse souverän abzuwägen und zu erkennen, wenn etwas nicht in die gewünschte Richtung läuft – ohne dabei der beste Engineer im Raum sein zu müssen. Nice To Have * Nachweisbare Erfahrung in der Organisationsentwicklung im Software Engineering – Aufbau von Strukturen, Förderung von Mitarbeitenden oder Skalierung von Teams durch sinnvolle Veränderungen. DAS ERWARTET DICH BEI UNS * Flexibilität – Genieße umfassende Freiheit bezüglich deines Arbeitsortes und gestalte deine Arbeitszeiten ganz nach deinen Bedürfnissen. * Eigenverantwortung – Bei uns hast du die Möglichkeit, selbstständig und eigenverantwortlich zu arbeiten, unterstützt von einer flachen Hierarchie und kurzen Entscheidungswegen. * Internationalität – wir arbeiten in einem globalen Team, das kulturelle Vielfalt schätzt und fördert. Unser internationales Netzwerk ermöglicht es dir, weltweit Kontakte zu knüpfen. * Zusammenhalt – Wir wissen, wie wichtig persönliche Treffen sind, um den Teamgeist zu stärken. Daher organisieren wir regelmäßig Social Events. * WettbewerbsfähigeVergütung – Du erhältst ein attraktives Gehaltspaket und 30 Tage Urlaub pro Jahr. * Mitarbeitervorteile – Nutze eine Vielzahl von Vergünstigungen über unseren externen Corporate Benefits Partner.
