Job Description

ABOUT US

Unzer is a leading European fintech company with a mission to simplify international payments for e-commerce and retail businesses. Our brand was formed from 13 companies that now contribute to building a unique product covering the entire payment flow.  

At Unzer, we are driven by the belief that customers should enjoy a seamless shopping experience, no matter where they choose to shop. We are a team of over 750 experts from 70 different nationalities, dedicated to creating a state-of-the-art unified commerce platform. Our goal is to enable businesses to delight their customers with a seamless payment experience.  

Whether you're a tech enthusiast, payment expert, or a dedicated support professional, we are looking for individuals who are passionate about making a difference.    

 
Our offices: We are based across Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Luxembourg, with our HQ in Berlin.  

ABOUT THE TEAM

Our Payment Processing team owns the core of Unzer's platform — the systems that authorise, capture and settle every merchant transaction, at high volume and under strict reliability and compliance demands. We're also building AI into both our tooling and our payment flows. The team is cross-functional and owns its services end to end; as Engineering Manager, you'll lead experienced engineers and work closely with Product, Risk and Operations.

 

What your work will look like:

  • Leads, mentors, and grows a team of engineers, owning hiring, performance management, and career development. 

  • Remains hands-on when needed, contributing to the codebase, troubleshooting complex issues, and supporting the team with your technical expertise. 

  • Takes accountability for the delivery, quality, and reliability of one or more product areas, balancing technical and business priorities. 

  • Partners with product and other stakeholders to shape roadmaps, plan capacity, and ensure predictable delivery. 

  • Drives continuous improvement of engineering practices, tooling, and processes, and removes blockers for the team. 

  • Contributes to technical and architectural direction, ensuring sound decisions while empowering engineers to own the details. 


What you need to be successful in this role:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or similar, with substantial software engineering experience and prior people-management or tech-lead experience. 

  • Proven ability to lead, coach, and develop engineers, and to build inclusive, motivated teams. 

  • Strong technical grounding (e.g., Java, Kotlin, and/or JavaScript, large-scale systems) sufficient to guide architecture and challenge decisions—without needing to be the hands-on expert. 

  • Familiarity with Agentic Software Engineering and AI-driven development lifecycles, and how to adopt them within a team. 

  • Deep understanding of Agile delivery, CI/CD, and quality practices, plus excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills across teams and functions.

  • Experience with cloud-based, containerized environments (Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS) is a plus.

  • Fluent in English, with excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills. 

  • Please note that we will not sponsor your visa or relocation, and you must have a valid work permit to be eligible for this position.
