Senior Manager, Software Engineering - (Consumer)

At Delivery Hero, you'll shape the global consumer experience for millions of users. Your work will have a direct impact on how we attract and retain customers, creating data-driven, personalized interactions that keep them coming back. As part of our Consumer Team, you'll enhance customer satisfaction and drive global growth and profitability through innovative projects.

• Lead the domain's engineering squads through the managers who report to you, with a delegation framework of clear priorities and shared success measures
• Set direction with your product counterpart: co-own the domain vision and mission, and turn tribe goals into domain goals with an 18-month horizon
• Grow and coach your engineering managers, hire strong new ones where needed, and prepare the domain for performance reviews together with your people partner
• Sponsor the migration from legacy recommendation services to a unified global platform, holding the line on shared components, model reuse and technical KPIs
• Keep cross-squad delivery on track: detect blockers and dependencies early, escalate outside the domain when needed, and use delivery metrics to find and fix inefficiencies
• Run the domain with discipline: documented and reviewed engineering practices, reliability and incident learning, the domain budget (together with your Director), and security vulnerabilities resolved within SLA
• *Qualifications**
• Several years of engineering leadership, including managing managers or leading three or more squads, with a track record of scaling impact through others
• Hands-on experience shipping and running recommendation, ranking, search or personalisation systems in production, with enough depth to challenge design decisions on real-time inference, model serving, feature pipelines and experimentation, in a stack like ours (Go, Python, Kubernetes, AWS and GCP, event streaming)
• Strategy and goal setting: you turn a fuzzy business problem and a tribe goal into a realistic multi-quarter roadmap and keep many stakeholders aligned to it
• People leadership: you have grown engineers into managers, attracted top talent, and handled performance management at domain scale
• Delivery and operational excellence: you measure a domain with standard delivery and technical KPIs, improve them without micromanaging, and have tracked a budget alongside a senior leader and defined a security approach for production services
• Partnership as an equal with Product, Data Science, Platform and Operations, and clear communication in written and spoken English
• *Nice to have**
• Experience migrating legacy services to a shared platform across multiple brands or markets
• Experience with feature stores, vector databases or large-scale A/B experimentation platforms
• Background in search, ranking, personalisation or relevance engineering in food delivery, e-commerce or marketplaces
• Experience applying LLMs and agentic tooling to engineering workflows and customer-facing products
• *Additional Information**
