About the Role:
We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our DevTools team - a small, high-impact group focused on improving how engineering works across the company.
This is a hands-on leadership role.
You’ll manage a team of 4 engineers while staying close to the code and technical decisions.
Your mission is to build and scale internal tools that improve developer experience and productivity, while helping accelerate the adoption of AI across engineering workflows and the wider organization.
You’ll also act as the Product Owner for your domain - shaping priorities, defining the roadmap, and ensuring the tools you build solve real problems.
This role sits at the intersection of engineering, platform, and product.
You’ll shape how engineering works across the company, not just within one team, by building tools that impact every developer and product. You’ll have real ownership - both from a people and product perspective - and play a key role in introducing AI into engineering workflows.
What you will do:
Lead and support a team of engineers, creating a strong, collaborative, and accountable environment
Stay hands-on - contributing to design, architecture, and selected parts of the codebase
Ensure systems are robust, observable, and built with performance, reliability, and security in mind
What we expect:
Experience working with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure) and modern infrastructure (Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD)
What we offer:
Tailored benefits package by location - we aim to empower our employees by offering customised benefits suited to each market
Your tech, your way - choose the tech gear that aligns with your comfort and meets your preferences
Hybrid work style - collaborate with the team in-office several days a week and embrace the flexible work model
Work-life balance - enjoy an extra 5 paid days off annually, and we will celebrate your work
Health & Wellness - we prioritise your physical and mental well-being by providing designated packs and access to the Headspace app
Continuous growth - quarterly development talks, a dedicated time during working hours each week for training and development, unlimited access to Udemy courses, defined career paths and internal mentorship opportunities
Customised onboarding - we will prepare an Onboarding Plan to ensure an easy and smooth beginning
Be part of an international team - the opportunity to work from any other Signicat office for 2 months per year and 3 weeks per year from any European country
Give back to the community - option to use 16 hours of paid volunteer time each year to support a charity or cause you are passionate about
Empowering feedback culture - by using employee engagement tools, we ensure that every voice is heard, empowering us to grow together
Meet-ups - frequent office gatherings and biennial Kick-off event to bring every Signicat under one roof that you don’t want to miss
Salary: During the hiring process, we will discuss your salary expectations to ensure alignment with your skills and competencies.
Office specifics:
Rotterdam: Modern workplace - a cosy office located in the heart of Rotterdam near the central station, with daily lunches provided to keep you fueled throughout the day and so much more!
