## Job description

**About us**

**Distribusion** is the world’s leading ground transportation marketplace and gives travellers seamless access to ground transportation online, from search to ticket purchase. We have built a cutting-edge B2B technology platform that connects bus, rail and ferry operators in 70+ countries with the biggest online retailers including Google Maps and [Booking.com](http://booking.com/).

We are shaping the future of travel and building the largest global network of transport providers and retailers. We are one of the fastest-growing startups in travel, backed by leading venture capital investors including TQ Ventures, Lightrock, Creandum, and Northzone, and are headquartered in Berlin, Germany. Following our recent $80m Series C funding, we are ready to push beyond.

**The opportunity**

We are looking for an **Engineering Manager** to lead our [Search team](https://careers.distribusion.com/tech-product-teams). The role entails contributing to the product & technical domains of excellence in the main API product that enables large retailers to seamlessly purchase tickets from bus & rail carriers worldwide.

This is a highly skilled, senior engineering team operating in a highly complex, high-throughput, and low-latency domain.

You will be stepping into an area where performance and cost-efficiency are critical, and your biggest challenge will be technical and strategic. With our platform scaling rapidly, your mission is to prepare our architecture for 10x growth. We need a hands-on leader who still fundamentally thinks of themselves as an Engineer, capable of diving deep into the technical weeds while steering the domain's business goals.

**What you will do:**

- Manage, lead, and support an experienced team of engineers, providing coaching, alignment, and performance management.
- Take ownership of domain health, ensuring our high-throughput, low-latency systems are robust, scalable, and consistently meeting performance goals.
- Drive profitability and cost optimisation, specifically tackling architectural challenges to scale our system 10x without allowing our current infrastructure and storage costs to multiply exponentially.
- Act as a hands-on technical leader, staying close to the code, system design, and architecture in a highly complex problem space.

**Workplace:**

We are a remote-first company with teams located around the Globe and a HQ in Berlin.

**Who you are:**

- You are an experienced people leader who has successfully managed and supported senior engineering teams.
- You think of yourself as an Engineer at heart; you are highly technical, hands-on, and capable of understanding and guiding deeply complex system architectures.
- You have a proven track record building, maintaining, and scaling high-throughput, low-latency distributed systems.
- You bring a strong business and resource-optimization mindset, with the ability to make strategic architectural decisions that directly impact company profitability and infrastructure costs.
- You have strong programming experience in any modern backend language and are excited to lead new development in Go. You are also adaptable and willing to learn.
- You show extreme ownership over your domain's health and are comfortable operating in an environment where technical challenges far outweigh basic language-level syntax issues.
- You are fluent in English, both verbally and in writing.

**What you can expect:**

- **Make a global impact.** Help shape how millions of people discover and book ground transportation worldwide.
- **Own your work.** Take responsibility from day one and see the direct impact of your contributions.
- **Build with the best tools.** We move fast, continuously evolve our tech stack, and invest in modern, efficient solutions.
- **Work with industry leaders.** Our partners include [Booking.com](http://booking.com/), Google Maps, Amtrak, Deutsche Bahn, Renfe, and SNCF.
- **Grow with exceptional people.** Join an international team that will challenge, support, and inspire you every day.
- **Work your way.** Enjoy flexible and remote-friendly working options, relocation opportunities, and plenty of room to grow.
