Your tasks

All About The Role

Joining our Timewise team in the Logistics Department, you will be involved in ensuring that our employed Couriers get their working times and absences properly tracked. While this might seem a simple task, handling complex data and exceptional situations requires proper handling to ensure the systems run smoothly and the processes are as efficient as possible.

We are looking for people who are as excited as we are to achieve a deep understanding of the Scheduling and Time and Attendance (T&A) domains to find and implement high-quality solutions.

In short, you'll combine your Software Engineering knowledge with the skills of a well-organised Tech Manager. You will lead a high-performing team, using a modern tech stack, applying Domain-Driven Design and Event-Driven Architecture, while focusing on automating tedious tasks by building a great product.

As a mentor and team builder, you will need to motivate and inspire your colleagues, helping them develop their skills and drive the growth of our platform.

These are some of the key ingredients to the role:

• Coach, motivate and inspire an Agile team of 6-8 team members.
• Develop cutting-edge, scalable, flexible and high-performing systems
• Work closely with the Product Manager and the team to prioritise and deliver initiatives and projects
• Support Product with stakeholder management and major software releases.
• Work with the team to optimise the Agile Processes and ensure the team has all the tools to express its full potential
• Contribute to our growth by helping recruit, interview and onboard new starters.
• Collaborate with other Technology Managers to share best practices and knowledge.
• Lead or support the team's cross-team projects.
• Support the team in defining the technical vision, ensuring tech debt is regularly treated and there is the right balance between BAU and experimentation.
• Being hands-on with the code is possible but not required by the role.

What will you bring to the table?

• Strong previous experience as a Software Developer, with at least a year of experience leading a team of 4+ direct reports.
• Able to build a positive team environment where people feel valued and supported.
• A strong knowledge and understanding of Java is required. Experience with either Spring Boot or Quarkus is a must.
• Experience with Node.js is a plus.
• A good understanding of Microservices, Docker, Kubernetes and Event-Driven Architecture is required. Experience with Apache Kafka is a plus.
• Previous experience with Domain-Driven Design is not required, but a plus.
• Proficient in understanding clean coding principles.
• The ability to foster collaboration over competition, connections over compliance, and trust over fear.
• Can empower the team to deliver remarkable outcomes with inclusive decision making, without relying on micromanagement.
• Confident in collaborating and communicating with non-technical stakeholders.
• Fluent English (written & spoken) and good communication skills.
