Engineering Manager

Tendium is the global pioneer in AI-driven public tender management, transforming how companies discover, analyze, and win

government contracts. Our platform turns complex processes into something simple and transparent, empowering businesses to compete

fairly for billions in public sector opportunities. We’ve been building our AI-native platform since 2018, leveraging a vast data

moat, agentic AI, and tens of thousands of hours of R&D. Today, we serve large numbers of customers across Europe and are rapidly

scaling.

As an Engineering Manager at Tendium you will work with your team and contribute to the whole tech org. You'll be responsible for

the engineers you lead: their growth, their wellbeing, and their ability to ship reliably. You will of course work closely with

the team’s Product Manager to figure out a clear direction for the team. You will also be an active part of our Engineering

Management team alongside other EMs, Staff Engineers, our Architect and the VP of Engineering.

• Protect the team's focus by working with your PM on priorities, making sure the team understands the "why" and having

constructive conversations about trade-offs.

• Make sure the team lands on sound technical decisions through discussions and bringing in staff engineers or our architect when

needed, while giving engineers room to own those calls and grow.

• Improve things beyond your own team by driving cross-team initiatives together with the rest of engineering management and

sharing what works.

• Experienced in leading engineering teams, with a solid technical background that earns engineers' respect. A strong track

record of technical leadership as a Tech Lead or in a similar role.

• A seasoned people manager with a proven track record of supporting direct reports in their growth and development. You have

extensive experience in people management, including performance conversations, salary reviews, recruitment, and building

high-performing teams.

• Comfortable making unpopular decisions when needed. You’re used to having tough conversations and making trade-offs between

tech quality and delivering with speed.

Our tech org consists of around 30 developers, PMs and designers divided into four teams sitting closely together on the same

floor. We use AI tools and cross-functional collaboration to build new and exciting things with speed. Every other week we have a

Show and tell, where we show things we’ve built, celebrate our successes and talk about our failures openly. We share knowledge

and learn from each other every day to grow and succeed together.

We review applications on a rolling basis and will close the vacancy as soon as the position has been filled. Applications are

accepted exclusively through Teamtailor.

At Tendium, we don’t just value diversity, we celebrate it. We’re building a workplace where everyone should feel that they

belong, where your voice is heard, and your experiences are respected. Different perspectives fuel our creativity and drive

innovation, and we’re always looking for people who can bring something new to the team. Whoever you are, wherever you're from,

we’d love to hear from you. Let’s shape the future together.
