Overview

If you’ve built and led engineering teams in a high-growth startup, and you’re ready to shape a platform at the frontier of applied AI, this is the role to step into.

A well-funded European startup is scaling fast, already generating multi-million revenue and trusted by some of the world’s most admired tech brands. Their platform is redefining modern B2B marketing with production-grade AI, powering personalised growth through agent-based automation, real-time orchestration, dynamic asset generation, and feedback-driven optimisation. With Series A on the horizon and demand accelerating, it’s the perfect time to join as the Software Engineering Manager.

Why this role stands out

You’ll join as the most senior engineer in the business, leading a talented team of 7 and working side-by-side with a technical founder. This isn’t a process-heavy management role - it’s for someone who enjoys leading from the front, still shipping features into production, and setting technical direction while staying close to the code. And here’s what makes it different: there are no product managers. Engineers own not just the technical side, but also product and roadmap decisions. You’ll work directly with customers, shape features from first principles, and build in a culture where ideas and ownership sit with the people closest to the code.

Responsibilities

• Build hands-on, shipping, reviewing, and understanding the system at depth
• Own technical strategy, from architecture to infrastructure and delivery
• Shape the engineering culture - hiring, mentoring, and driving sustainable velocity
• Partner directly with a product-first CEO and technical co-founder who care deeply about quality and pace
• Lay the foundations for how this engineering organisation scales, influencing both code and decision-making
• Frontend: React, Next.js 14, TypeScript

What they’re looking for

• A Senior+ Engineer with team leadership experience (Tech Lead or EM background)
• Strong fullstack grounding - React/TypeScript on the frontend and Go on the backend (or willingness to learn fast)
• Track record of architectural ownership, high-quality delivery, and mentoring engineers

They are paying upto £140,000 for this Software Engineering Manager role, plus meaningful equity and other great benefits (VISA sponsorship also available).

This is a hybrid role, 3 days a week in their Central London office.
