Head of Engineering

Join Recare as the Head of Engineering, where you will shape engineering leadership and build strong leadership structures, systems, and processes. You will lead the scaling of our engineering organization, develop Engineering Managers, design scalable systems, and ensure transparent communication across the organization. Enjoy flexible work arrangements, a central office in Berlin, and a strong team culture.

• Gestalten Sie die Führung im Ingenieurwesen bei Recare, indem Sie Strukturen, Systeme und Prozesse aufbauen, die das Wachstum der Ingenieurteams unterstützen.
• Fokussieren Sie sich auf die Entwicklung starker Engineering Managers und die Ermöglichung von Tech Leads, die technische Verantwortung zu übernehmen.
• Leiten Sie die Skalierung der Ingenieurorganisation, während sie von sechs auf 10+ Teams wächst, und stellen Sie sicher, dass die Teams ausgerichtet, befugt und effektiv bleiben.
• You have experience in engineering leadership roles and have successfully scaled engineering teams in fast-growing product organizations
• You have deep technical expertise to dive into architectural discussions and engineering approaches when needed
• You are deeply familiar with the current state of AI-native engineering. You understand where capabilities currently are and that they shift fast enough to invalidate decisions quarterly. You stay close to the frontier and adjust accordingly
• You are curious and pragmatic, asking thoughtful questions, challenging assumptions, and focusing on solutions that work in practice
• You trust strong technical ownership – Tech Leads make technical decisions while you focus on leadership, systems, and alignment across teams
• You value honest feedback and continuous growth and foster an environment where open conversations help people and teams improve
• You lead through systems rather than control, designing processes that help teams make better decisions independently instead of centralizing them around yourself
• You communicate with clarity and transparency – whether sharing strategy, reporting risks, or delivering difficult news with context and honesty
• You communicate confidently in English and are comfortable operating in an international environment
• You are comfortable managing managers and know how to develop Engineering Managers into strong leaders instead of stepping in to solve every problem yourself
