About the role

Last year we won Breakits award for best product organization!

This means we already have a great organization with happy developers working with our product Engage. We are looking for a Director of Engineering who will work strategically and tactically with the continued growth of our agile development organization with a focus on maintaining the current state of success and well-being as well as streamlining the current processes and realizing our product vision regarding one of our products, Engage.

You will be the main speaking partner for the Engage development organization with stakeholders both internally within Voyado, as well as externally towards partners and customers. In this role, you will also work with change management where you will be responsible for executing business initiatives while putting your own personal touch on to the deliverables.

Some examples of your work:

• Set the vision and strategy for our Engage development teams including growth, methodologies, and personal development
• Coach, lead and have personnel responsibility of our Engineering Managers
• Strategic and tactical team planning, including budget responsibility
• Guide our teams in our OKR process to set goals and measure outcomes
• Plan and coordinate strategic improvement initiatives and lead change management
• Align processes, tools and methodology between our product development groups (e.g. Elevate)

So, who are you?

You are likely a strategic person who likes to contribute with new ideas and fresh input.

Furthermore, you are likely very communicative, someone who will get your points through regardless of the level of knowledge of the recipient. The role includes working closely with many stakeholders, hence communication skills and a strong ability to work with and inspire others are key for success.

In addition to your personal attributes, you probably have:

• Worked as a Senior Engineering Manager, Head of Development or similar
• Experience with scaling agile product organizations with multiple teams
• You are fluent in technical and business English, both spoken and written

If you also have experience from a similar environment at a SaaS-company, and have hands-on experience in development from previous roles, that'd be meritorious.

What we offer you

You will be part of an extremely exciting journey in redesigning the market for personalized customer experiences. We want to make our product Europe's leading loyalty system in retail and e-commerce, and together with our customers, we are well on our way. We are extremely dedicated to the task, but at the same time, we ensure that everyone is doing well at work. You will have plenty of room to grow in a creative work environment where personal development is as important as high competence. You get to work with some of Sweden's strongest brands that use Engage as a platform for their loyalty work, and your everyday life has elements of collaboration with both customer and internal Engage teams.

Lovely!

It’s vacay time though, and at Voyado we really value taking time off to recharge our batteries. We hope that you are doing the same while reading this ad, perhaps you are laying in a sunbed somewhere or you just got back from a mountain bike tour. Either way, we hope you are as relaxed as us. Since we are out of office, we won’t be able to get back to you until august, but we would love for you to apply for this role if you think it’d be a great fit for you.

Applying is super easy. Use your LinkedIn profile (or upload a resume) and answer a few click-in questions (no data entry, we promise). We'd love to get to know you and understand what makes you tick, so write a few lines about what you enjoy about your role and what would be an exciting challenge for you going forward. We are eager to get to know you and what you love to do, so be yourself and let that shine through in your application!
