Manager, Engineering

Are you excited about driving high-impact engineering leadership in the fast-evolving e-commerce logistics and financial technology ecosystem? Allegro’s Delivery Experience area is looking for a strategic and visionary Engineering Manager to lead backend engineering teams powering our partner settlement and logistics platform. Here's why you should join us:

• Spearhead key engineering initiatives that take Allegro’s logistics capabilities beyond our platform. You will lead teams building solutions that open up our delivery infrastructure to external e-commerce partners across the region.
• Lead the critical settlement and financial reconciliation flows connecting Allegro with a wide network of logistics carriers and business partners. Your teams’ systems ensure end-to-end transparency, financial accuracy, and fraud prevention across millions of daily shipments.
• Guide engineering teams building on a modern, high-throughput backend stack based on Java, Kotlin, and the JVM ecosystem. You will drive technical excellence, system resilience, and architectural scalability across distributed services.
• Act as a "leader of leaders," shaping technical strategy, driving delivery, and collaborating closely with Product Management and Senior Leadership. You will bridge complex logistics and financial operations with robust, scalable engineering solutions.

Important things for you:

• Flexible working hours in the hybrid model (4/1) - working hours start between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. We also have 30 days of occasional remote work.
• Depending on your annual assessment and the company's results we offer:
• Annual bonus based on your annual performance and company results.
• Long term discretionary incentive plan based on Allegro.eu shares (restricted stock units).
• Our team is based in Warsaw.

In your daily work, you will handle the following tasks:

• Defining and executing the technical roadmap and architecture strategy for settlement and carrier integration systems in close collaboration with Product and Business partners.
• Leading and supporting multiple backend engineering teams, fostering technical excellence, ownership, and high delivery standards.
• Overseeing the reliability, and accuracy of high-scale financial settlement flows, carrier cost calculations, and partner billing platforms.
• Acting as a trusted bridge between senior stakeholders, product managers, and engineering teams - translating complex business expectations into reliable technical solutions.
• Driving predictable engineering delivery, managing cross-domain dependencies, and tracking delivery milestones and system health metrics.
• Collaborating with leadership to build a high-performing engineering culture, develop leadership talent within teams, and support organizational growth.

We are looking for people who:

• Have proven experience as an Engineering Manager, Team Lead, or similar leadership role guiding multiple backend software engineering teams.
• Possess a solid technical background in backend engineering (JVM ecosystem: Java or Kotlin) and stay up to date with modern architectural patterns, with the ability to guide technical decisions without needing to be hands-on daily.
• Have experience in high-scale distributed systems - a background or familiarity with financial systems, settlements, billing, fintech, or logistics is a strong plus.
• Demonstrate strong business acumen and communication skills, comfortable presenting to senior leadership and collaborating with non-technical business partners.
• Are passionate about people leadership, mentoring team leads and engineers, and creating an autonomous, delivery-focused team culture.
• Exhibit a strategic and product-oriented mindset, focused on delivery predictability, operational excellence, and data integrity.
• Are fluent in both Polish and English.
