You take a mixed backlog of integration, platform, and product work and ship it predictably, at high quality, with the dependencies managed and the risks surfaced early.</p><p>Key responsibilities</p><ul><li>Manage a team of full stack engineers, actively drive their growth, performance, and engagement. Mobile engineers are a possibility as well.</li><li>Turn quarterly roadmaps into a realistic delivery plan, track progress, and report status with metrics against company goals.</li><li>Run tight agile processes and continuously improve them based on delivery metrics.</li><li>Manage dependencies across different domains, with external integration partners, escalating and resolving blockers early (e.g. with POS systems etc.).</li><li>Review RFCs and technical proposals, providing feedback on design, scalability, security, and integration risk, and helping the team converge on sound decisions before things enter a delivery commitment.</li><li>Lead technical discussions with third-party integration partners, translating between partner APIs and constraints and wi-Q's architecture, and owning the technical feasibility view in those conversations.</li><li>Improve engineering process and delivery metrics (for example cycle time, deployment frequency, change-failure rate, and defect escape rate), and use them to drive decisions.</li><li>Uphold security and compliance obligations relevant to the team's work (e.g. PCI DSS etc.), embedding them into how the squad builds rather than treating them as an afterthought.</li><li>Draft and track team OKRs and engineering KPIs (e.g. DORA); when the team is off track, show what is being done about it.</li><li>Coordinate across Product, Customer Success, DevOps, and the Foodics counterparts to deliver shared goals.</li></ul><p>What success looks like (first 6-12 months)</p><ul><li>The team has a predictable delivery cadence, with sprint and quarterly commitments met at a consistent and improving hit rate.</li><li>Cross-team and third-party dependencies are visible and managed early, so the squad is rarely blocked and rarely blocks others.</li><li>Release quality is measurably higher: fewer escaped defects and a faster, safer path from merge to production.</li><li>Delivery from the team contributes directly to improving TTV for new customer go-lives and to protecting NRR through platform stability.</li><li>The team is fully staffed, ramped, and retained, with a clear working model and a healthy engagement signal.</li><li>Product, Commercial, and Customer Success stakeholders trust the team's estimates, status, and risk flags.</li></ul><p>Your skills</p><ul><li>Demonstrated experience managing a team of software engineers, with a track record of delivering on commitments predictably.</li><li>Strong command of agile and lean delivery practices (sprints, kanban, estimation, refinement) and the maturity to adapt process to context rather than apply it dogmatically.</li><li>Proven ability to manage dependencies and coordinate delivery across multiple teams and external partners.</li><li>Technically strong: able to review RFCs and technical proposals critically, reason about architecture, scalability, and integration risk, scope engineering spikes, and hold your own in technical discussions with engineers and third-party partners.</li><li>Fluency with delivery and quality metrics, and the discipline to lead with data over anecdote.</li><li>Excellent written and verbal communication in English; able to lead with the conclusion, be concise, and be specific about blockers and decisions needed.</li><li>Ability to translate technical concepts into easily digestible language for non-technical business stakeholders.</li><li>Experience operating in multi-market or multi-region environments, ideally with distributed and remote teams.</li><li>Comfortable in a fast-moving scale-up where priorities shift and ambiguity is normal.</li></ul><p>Nice-to-haves</p><ul><li>Experience in B2B SaaS with high-volume B2C traffic patterns.</li><li>Background in hospitality-tech, food and beverage, payments, or last-mile delivery.</li><li>Working knowledge of our stack: Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes, GitHub, PHP/Symfony, NodeJS, Typescript, and a mobile stack (Capacitor, Ionic, or React Native).</li><li>Familiarity with integrating third-party systems (POS, PMS, payment gateways, delivery aggregators) and the reliability challenges they bring.</li><li>Experience hiring and scaling engineering teams in the MENA region.</li><li>BSc or MSc degree (or equivalent experience).</li></ul><p>What we offer</p><ul><li>Curated career progression planning with formal yearly reviews and informal check-ins along the way.</li><li>Encouragement to grow into a Feature Development Lead.</li><li>A competitive salary.</li><li>Ample time to learn new concepts - including paid development and business-related conferences.</li><li>Fully remote working, no commuting expenses.</li><li>Flexible work hours. We'll need you around for a 10am stand-up; otherwise you work as and when it suits you.</li><li>25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), with an additional day per year of service.</li><li>Regular all-company socials and quarterly team socials.</li><li>A team that genuinely likes learning and shipping together.</li></ul><p><strong>Desired Candidate Profile</strong></p><ul><li>Demonstrated experience managing a team of software engineers, with a track record of delivering on commitments predictably.</li><li>Strong command of agile and lean delivery practices (sprints, kanban, estimation, refinement) and the maturity to adapt process to context rather than apply it dogmatically.</li><li>Proven ability to manage dependencies and coordinate delivery across multiple teams and external partners.</li><li>Technically strong: able to review RFCs and technical proposals critically, reason about architecture, scalability, and integration risk, scope engineering spikes, and hold your own in technical discussions with engineers and third-party partners.</li><li>Fluency with delivery and quality metrics, and the discipline to lead with data over anecdote.</li><li>Excellent written and verbal communication in English; able to lead with the conclusion, be concise, and be specific about blockers and decisions needed.</li><li>Ability to translate technical concepts into easily digestible language for non-technical business stakeholders.</li><li>Experience operating in multi-market or multi-region environments, ideally with distributed and remote teams.</li><li>Comfortable in a fast-moving scale-up where priorities shift and ambiguity is normal.</li><li>Experience in B2B SaaS with high-volume B2C traffic patterns.</li><li>Background in hospitality-tech, food and beverage, payments, or last-mile delivery.</li><li>Working knowledge of our stack: Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes, GitHub, PHP/Symfony, NodeJS, Typescript, and a mobile stack (Capacitor, Ionic, or React Native).</li><li>Familiarity with integrating third-party systems (POS, PMS, payment gateways, delivery aggregators) and the reliability challenges they bring.</li><li>Experience hiring and scaling engineering teams in the MENA region.</li><li>BSc or MSc degree (or equivalent experience).</li></ul>
