Partners, Earlybird, Notion Capital, and Motive. Our latest €105M funding round in March 2026 - led by Sapphire and Tencent -
serves as a massive catalyst for our growth, allowing us to offer premier investment experience.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
As a Senior Engineer, you'll be a core part of a small, high-ownership TechOps function at Upvest. This is not an execution-only
role. You're expected to bring ideas, challenge assumptions, flag risks early, and operate with a high degree of autonomy. You are
trusted to make senior-level decisions independently across prioritisation, vendor conversations, and urgent matters. TechOps owns
most internal technologies, including endpoints and SaaS, and partners with every business unit to drive automation, improve
processes, and bring emerging technologies into the organisation where they add real value.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
* Owning our core internal IT stack (i.e. Okta, Google Workspace, Slack, etc), user lifecycle management and security controls in
close collaboration with our Security team
* Managing our Mac laptop fleet, zero-touch DEP/MDM device deployments, and ensuring company endpoints meet the company’s
security standards
* Acting as a trusted advisor to teams: evaluating, challenging, and prioritising tooling requests rather than simply fulfilling
them
* Continuously looking for ways to automate and improve processes across TechOps and every department we support, and taking
ownership of seeing those improvements through
* Actively leveraging AI tools in your daily work to raise the quality and speed of your output, and helping the broader team do
the same
* Collaborating with the Security team on AI tool governance and how LLMs connect to internal systems, ensuring safe and
controlled adoption
* Participating in response activities when a security event occurs
WHAT YOU BRING:
Genuinely hands-on - you're comfortable owning support end-to-end across all levels, from basic helpdesk to complex technical
issues, without drawing lines around what's 'your' problem. Everything else in this role is built on top of that.
* Demonstrated ability to think critically, challenge assumptions, prioritise high-value work, and propose better alternatives.
Not just execute
* Proven experience building and maintaining automations using tools like Okta Workflows, n8n, Tines, Make or similar, with real
examples you can speak to
* Active, hands-on use of AI tools (LLMs, AI-assisted workflows, and similar) to meaningfully improve the quality and speed of
your work. This is a baseline expectation, not a nice-to-have
* Strong understanding of macOS and Apple device management (MDM/DEP)
* Prior experience with Okta, Google Workspace is required
IT’S GREAT IF YOU HAVE:
* Familiarity with Git, GitHub, GitHub Actions, and Terraform is a plus, particularly in the context of infrastructure-as-code
* Knowledge of scripting languages or our tech stack (Golang, Python, Docker, k8s) is a plus, but not a requirement
HOW WE UPVEST IN YOU:
* Best-in-class AI tools: Every Upvenger has €20,000 per year to spend on the best AI tools available — so you're always working
with the most powerful models and tooling on the market.
* Impact-driven work: We’re building the infrastructure that will power the future of investing in Europe. It’s complex,
ambitious, and meaningful. You’ll work with modern technologies and create something entirely new. No legacy systems, no
limits.
* Wellbeing: Recharge with 30 days of annual leave and maintain a healthy lifestyle with sports benefits. Access confidential
professional coaching and enjoy the flexibility to work remotely abroad for up to 183 days a year. Recharge with UpRest, a
one-month fully paid sabbatical after every 4 years of working at Upvest.
* Development: Growth is in our DNA. Each Upvenger has access to a personal development budget and the freedom to decide how to
use it.
* Flexible work environment: Work from any of our hubs in Berlin, London or Tallinn hybrid or remotely across Europe, depending
on the role. We give you the choice and budget to work where you’re most comfortable and productive, either at home or in the
office. You choose.
* Compensation and equity: We believe that all Upvengers contribute to our success and deserve a competitive, above-market salary
and a participation in our employee equity program.
* Team celebrations: Participate in company-wide events, such as UpFest, dinners, offsites and our Holiday party, to connect with
colleagues and celebrate our achievements.
* Inclusion: We’re committed to a culture where everyone belongs and thrives. Our Employee Resources Groups foster inclusion and
connection, like Upfem for our female Upvengers, or UpVergent supporting neurodivergent Upvengers and allies.
OUR VALUES:
* Make it easy for others. We simplify the complex and act with the best intentions.
* Own the outcome. We are proactive, fast and confident to get the job done, valuing progress over perfection.
* Rise to the challenge. We aim high and push the boundaries. We stay curious, learn and celebrate our wins together.
* Tell the story. We start with the Why to align on purpose. We are transparent and share knowledge to empower and inspire
others.
Upvest is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all
employees.

ABOUT TALON.ONE:
Talon.One is the most powerful incentives engine that unifies loyalty, promotions and gamification into one holistic
platform. Backed by enterprise-grade security and scalability, Talon.One empowers companies to build personalized, profitable
promotions and loyalty programs using any data.
Today, over 250 of the world’s most-loved brands including Adidas, Sephora and Carlsberg work with Talon.One to drive deeper
engagement and lasting loyalty with their customers.
ABOUT THE TEAM AND ROLE:
At Talon.One, we're building the infrastructure behind modern promotions, loyalty, and gamification for some of the world's most
forward-thinking brands.
As our engineering organization scales, we are introducing a new Technical Governance and Enablement layer that sits right between
Product Engineering, Architecture, and Platform/Infra. We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to become the operational
engine, stakeholder shield, and planning partner for this critical new function.
Production Engineering defines how production is run across R&D - from incidents and releases to operational workflows,
reliability initiatives, and the systems that help engineers operate safely at scale. We treat this domain as an internal product.
This is not a customer-facing role. It is about bringing structure, focus, and predictability to a highly technical team, turning
ambitious reliability and architectural strategies into realistic, data-driven execution plans. You will remove the coordination
and operational overhead for engineering leaders so they can focus on scaling and mentoring the team.
ONCE YOU ARE HERE YOU WILL:
* Work hand-in-hand with leadership to design, document, and roll out foundational engineering programs from scratch (e.g.,
modernizing our incident management framework, on-call training, blameless post-mortem culture, and release governance)
* Standardize incoming channels (Slack, Shortcut, Incident Follow-ups, GTM feedback etc.) to manage ad-hoc chaos, triage
operational requests, and protect the focus of SREs and TechOps so they can deliver deep project work. Establish a clear
operational intake process ("front door") for the team
* Drive quarterly planning, backlog refinement, sprint readiness, and execution tracking for reliability and Ops initiatives. Own
the Production Engineering backlog and continuously improve incident response and release processes
* Coordinate work across Engineering, Platform, Architecture, Product, Support, and Post-sales, managing dependencies and
surfacing delivery risks early
* Configure and optimize project management tools (like Jira/Trello) to build clean tracking dashboards and automate intake
workflows
* Design the communication loops, tracking dashboards, and engineering reviews that give senior stakeholders clear insight into
operational health, incident follow-ups, and tech-debt remediation
* Evolve the metrics (SLOs/SLIs, MTTR, deployment velocity, tech-debt ratios) that guide how we balance shipping new business
features with maintaining absolute system reliability
* Enable Architects and engineering leadership with the operational data and planning insights needed for effective capacity
planning and prioritization
WHAT WE NEED YOU TO BRING TO THE TABLE:
* Proven experience as a Technical Program Manager or Product Manager within Platform, Infrastructure, SRE, DevOps, or Core
Engineering Ecosystems. You understand CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and observability
* Direct experience defining or revamping incident management, post-incident review practices, or release governance frameworks
* Operates effectively in ambiguity, building operational scaffolding from scratch. Comfortable in daily tactical loops with SREs
and long-term strategic planning with architects
* Building high-performing engineering processes and leading organizational change that enables teams to scale, adopt new ways of
working, and deliver
* Exceptional ability to manage complex cross-team dependencies and negotiate priorities across Product, Engineering, Platform,
and Support
* Experience translating raw engineering pain points and incident logs into structured, data-backed business cases for technical
debt capacity
* Nice to have: Deep familiarity with Site Reliability Engineering concepts (Error Budgets, SLOs, SLIs, MTTA/MTTR)
* Nice to have: Experience in a high-growth, high-throughput B2B SaaS environment
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU:
* 90+ team of engineers, product managers and product designers in Berlin
* Leaders with 8+ years of experience building our promotions engine
* €1,000 annual learning budget and free German language courses to boost your skills
* 30 days of annual leave, plus extra paid days for your birthday and moving day
* Home office setup budget, a monthly home office allowance
* Freedom to work from abroad for up to 90 days worldwide!
* Mental health support with nilo.health and a discounted Urban Sports Club membership
* 20% company subsidy on your pension contributions
* Subsidised BVG public transport ticket and a dog-friendly Berlin office where your furry friend is welcome
* Lease your ideal bike through BusinessBike
