Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland Good Hood GmbH nebenan Vollzeit
Your mission
  • You are part of the Product & Technology leadership team, reporting directly to the CTPO, and fully accountable for engineering execution across the organisation
  • You own delivery predictability end-to-end, ensuring realistic commitments, high-quality outcomes, and continuous improvement
  • You establish and continuously evolve the engineering operating system, covering planning, development, release, operations, and incident management
  • You balance speed, stability, and technical risk, owning platform reliability, security, and architectural integrity
  • You lead, mentor, and scale engineering leadership, enabling teams to operate with clear ownership, accountability, and autonomy
  • You support the transition towards value stream–aligned teams and build resilient leadership structures
  • You partner closely with Product and Data leadership to shape priorities, timelines, dependencies, and trade-offs
  • You create transparency through meaningful signals and metrics, clearly communicating progress, risks, and constraints to leadership
Your profile
  • Senior experience leading engineering organisations through growth, scale, or increased complexity, with clear ownership of delivery and operational excellence
  • Proven ability to lead and develop engineering leaders, not just individual contributors
  • Strong architectural judgment in evolving, production-grade web platforms, with a deep understanding of reliability, risk, and system behaviour
  • Calm, clear, and honest leadership style, comfortable making and defending trade-offs under pressure
  • Pragmatic technical mindset: frameworks and languages matter less than sound judgment and system thinking (Ruby on Rails and React experience is a plus)
  • Bias towards "boring technology" while open to evaluating and driving new approaches, including AI-enabled tooling and workflows
  • Fluent in English; German is a bonus.
  • You live in Berlin
  • Strong alignment with our mission and motivation to help build strong neighbourhoods across Germany
What we offer
  • A meaningful role with purpose – we create a great product that delivers real value to local communities
  • Working in a cheerful and experienced team that actively exchanges knowledge and learns from one another
  • A high level of responsibility and ample opportunities to actively contribute and make an impact
  • Your SpenditCard – you receive an additional €35 per month to spend on benefits of your choice
  • 30 days of paid vacation per year, plus the option for workation models and a sabbatical
  • A strengths-based development culture (we work with the Gallup StrengthsFinder)
  • A workplace in Berlin-Kreuzberg and regular events such as Lunch Roulette, Lunch & Learn, and Yoga
  • A hybrid working model combining office and remote work days
