We Are Looking For
Leadership : You recruit, retain and develop a team of outstanding engineers. You help your team continuously improve the quality of their work by coaching them to make the right decisions fast. You know what it takes to build a mature team, that can work as independently as possible. Regular 1:1s and development talks are not a burden for you but something that makes you enjoy your job. You can turn a business strategy into the Engineering team’s OKRs and ensure that you lead your team with purpose.
Technical expertise : Together with the CTO, you provide the right guidance to your team and help them solve their technical questions, such as choice of tech stack, system architecture, security implications, code quality and performance. You have a clear mid- and long-term technical vision for your product and foster close collaboration with your colleagues to be in line with our overall strategy. You enjoy coding and don’t mind rolling up your sleeves to help your team get things done.
Results-driven mindset : You're ultimately responsible for what is being delivered by your team. You make sure that the delivery is on-time and as planned, and care for the continuous improvement of our team and processes. You determine what will be developed in the next sprint, assess feasibility, timelines and resources, and perform code reviews to ensure quality. You proactively identify risks and address them before they become an issue.
Our Ideal Candidate
Please apply through our website, and don’t hesitate to send us an email at careers-at-labforward.io if you have any questions.
A cover letter is even more important for us than your CV. You don’t need to overthink it, just tell us with your own words why you would like to do this job, why you would be good at it, and why Labforward. Don’t forget to indicate your ideal starting date and salary expectations.
Do you have a previous project that you are really proud of? Any open source contributions? A public GitHub profile? Please include any of these you feel relevant with your application!
