Engineering Team Lead (m/f/d)

About SoSafe:

We are the fastest-growing security awareness scale-up worldwide. By putting people first and focusing on behavioral science, we are disrupting the security awareness status-quo. Our vision is to strengthen self-defence in a digital and connected world. By putting people first and delivering impactful products, we help our customers to sustainably manage their human risk.

The Engineering Team Lead Position:

At SoSafe, you'll be part of a team that thrives on innovation, safeguarding organizations against evolving threats and making the digital world a safer place. You will have the opportunity to make a real impact, surrounded by a dynamic and supportive team in an environment committed to your professional growth.

Your team will be working on an entirely new product for our portfolio. In our highly connected world, it is no longer enough to simply present our customers and their SOC teams with as many data points as possible but to help them draw the right conclusions from it. To that end, we are looking for a Team Lead who will help us develop a product that takes personalization and data insights to the next level by presenting our customers with suggestions on how to interpret and act on the data.

Your mission:

· Work and lead in a pragmatic, product focused and high-impact engineering culture where every individual owns their work from start to finish and every team owns their domain from left to right.

· Build and lead a distributed and multifunctional team. You won’t be handed a team that we put together for you, instead you will own the success of this team from the ground up.

· Support the engineering leadership to level up our collaborative, feedback-driven high-performance culture across the organization

· Flex your entrepreneurial muscle: Experiment, deliver, fail fast, learn and iterate all in a culture of open communication and honest feedback.

· Have a significant impact on the business. We are no longer a five-person development team, but we are still early in our journey as a company and each change we make today is amplified by Sosafe’s growth.

· Solve complex and meaningful challenges to help strengthen our user's security awareness and enable SOC teams to identify behaviors not conducive to a security aware culture.

· Create the first iteration of the feature hands on with one of our founders while you hire the rest of your team.

What you bring:

· You possess a passion for technology and understand how the right tool in the right hands can make our lives better and how the right tool in the wrong hands can make it unsafe

· Your abilities straddle the line between tech and management

· You show strong technical skills, can weigh different approaches and use the best tools to get the job done and have successfully taken a feature all the way from rough draft to delivery through the whole SDLC

· You have demonstrated leadership (3+ years) by consistently meeting the milestones and objectives laid out in your organization’s (2+ teams) roadmaps, have achieved your goals and then set them higher.

· You focus on the growth and performance of team members. You know how to enhance their skills and autonomy, have identified and created opportunities for team members to make significant contributions to the company, aligning their growth with organizational goals.

· You have mastered the art of setting objectives and north stars with your team, coupled with effective delivery planning.

· You have guided the team in defining, validating, and utilizing key performance indicators to support data-driven decision making.

· You have championed deep care for the product you worked on and consistently brought the user/customer perspective into discussions.

· You have defined what good looks like in terms of standards, have aligned them with individual contributors, and held the team accountable.

· You have encouraged cross-functional collaboration and created an environment where engineers feel empowered to take ownership of their work, fostering teamwork and problem-solving.
