Ready for a challenge?

Then Just Eat Takeaway.com might be the place for you. We’re a leading global online delivery platform, and our vision is to empower everyday convenience. 

Whether it’s a Friday-night feast, a post-gym poke bowl, or grabbing some groceries, our tech platform connects tens of millions of customers with hundreds of thousands of restaurant, grocery and convenience partners across the globe - including our leading German brand, Lieferando.

About this role

We are looking for a Technology Manager to lead and grow the Catalogue Experience team within our Growth & Customer Experience pillar. The team is responsible for the customer-facing menu and catalogue experience across our mobile apps and web platform, helping customers explore restaurants, discover products, find what they’d like to order and add these to their basket.

As a Technology Manager, you’ll lead a team of iOS, Android, web and quality engineers, fostering a healthy, inclusive team environment. You’ll drive delivery and technical excellence, working closely with Product Managers, designers, and other engineering teams to deliver high-quality experiences and continuously improve the ordering journey for millions of our customers.

These are some of the key components to the position: 

• Set direction - Work closely with the Head of Engineering and Product to define priorities, align with the wider engineering strategy and set clear goals for your team.
• Lead and develop your team - Coach and support engineers, providing regular feedback and opportunities for their professional growth.
• Drive accountability - Empower engineers to take ownership of their work, make decisions and deliver on commitments while holding them accountable for results.
• Partner with Product and Design - Collaborate to plan and deliver high-quality experiences that improve the customer journey.
• Raise the bar - Drive technical excellence, ensuring high standards of code quality, reliability, security and maintainability.
• Deliver results - Enable predictable and efficient delivery by removing obstacles, improving ways of working and continuously improving team effectiveness.
• Break down silos - Collaborate with platform and other engineering teams to manage dependencies and deliver end-to-end customer experiences.
• Own your results - Take responsibility for production health, ensuring the team proactively monitors releases, identifies issues and responds quickly to incidents.
• Build a winning team - Foster an inclusive, high-performing environment built on trust, collaboration, open communication and shared success.
  

What will you bring to the team?

• Proven experience in engineering management, leading and developing engineers while building high-performing, collaborative teams.
• Strong technical background in software engineering, ideally with experience in mobile (iOS or Android) or web development.
• Ability to lead engineers across different technology stacks, providing technical guidance and supporting decisions without needing to be an expert in every platform.
• Experience delivering customer-facing products at scale, with a good understanding of software architecture, development practices and engineering quality.
• Strong people management skills, including coaching, providing constructive feedback, managing performance and supporting career development.
• Ability to set clear goals, prioritise effectively and create accountability while coordinating delivery and maintaining consistency across platforms.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with experience working closely with Product Managers, designers and other engineering teams.
• A proactive approach to technical excellence and operational health, including software quality, reliability, security and continuous improvement.
• An adaptable and inclusive leadership style, creating an environment where engineers with different specialisations can collaborate, grow and succeed.
