Beschreibung

The Engineering Director - Value Stream Management (VSM) will lead the development of VSM, one of our emerging products, consisting of 4 fully remote engineering teams (based in Europe) with their engineering managers (20+ people).

This is a product earlier in it's lifecycle but with a strong customer base already, so it requires a balance of fast innovation and making sure existing customers are successful.

Basically it requires a startup mindset. The role is reporting to the VP Engineering, emerging products.

WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? Well, there are multiple reasons:

We're on a strong growth trajectory in terms of ARR and team size while scaling in a sustainable and profitable way, making us successful even in challenging economical times. The VSM product is one of our key expansion products for the future of the company so you will have a big impact on the potential to scale the whole company.
We value customercentricity above an "knowitall" attitude. Our EAM product is industryleading with happy customers and a NPS of 70, and we want to make sure that continues also in our emerging products. Our culture of empowered product development teams enables engineers to solve customer problems instead of just implementing and shipping welldefined features. You'll not only shape our engineering organization, you'll participate in defining our products as well.
We build it, we run it. We ensure highlyavailable and easytouse products. We stay ahead of trouble through a high degree of automation, alerting, SRE and oncall practises. There is no dedicated operations department in place at LeanIX.
We prioritize continuous improvement, collaboration and knowledge sharing. We constantly iterate on our engineering practices and skills to build software architecture and team composition that supports fun at work and long term success of the business.
We value open access to leadership, transparency and personal development. We successfully enabled many software engineers to grow along with the company into engineering manager or technical lead positions. You'll continue this success story while we offer you opportunities to grow.
We value a healthy life balance and our employees make room for interests and relations outside of their job. We offer a hybrid working environment, providing a high grade of flexibility while meeting colleagues in one of our offices from time to time.
