Head of Engineering

ph3Your job /h3 pYou will lead our engineering organisation: a team of leads and developers (15+) building the software that keeps our business running. You will report to the CTO and be responsible for people, delivery, and engineering culture. Getting shit done is in your DNA. You communicate the vision, bring people along with you, and are not afraid to go against the grain when something doesn’t feel right—even when everyone else is heading in a different direction. /p ul liLead, coach, and support a team of leads and developers (15+), and develop leadership capabilities within the team. /li liManage engineering, DevOps, and data teams, with enough technical knowledge across each domain to challenge them effectively. /li liFoster healthy team dynamics, motivation, and collaboration, and don’t shy away from confrontation when it helps move the team forward. /li /ul h3What We’re Not Looking For /h3 ul liYou want to build the most technically perfect solution, regardless of its business value. /li liYou are looking for a stable, predictable environment where you always know what next month will look like. /li liYou focus more on technology than on its business impact. /li liYou follow dogmas and “the textbook” and believe they always lead to the best outcome. /li liYou rely solely on data and are not willing to use your intuition and experience. /li liYou avoid conflict or keep postponing decisions until everything is certain. /li /ul h3Hybrid Working Policy /h3 pAt Get-e, we work according to a hybrid model of 3 days in the office and 2 days from home. For this role, however, we expect you to be present in the office as much as possible due to the close collaboration required with the team. /p h3Your profile /h3 pYou are a leader who makes things happen. You have previously led an engineering organisation within a scale‑up or mid‑sized tech company, and you know how to develop a team of leads, retain talent, and keep multiple disciplines—engineering, DevOps, and data—moving forward together. /p pYou have the technical knowledge to challenge all of these teams. You understand architecture and are willing to dive into the low‑level details when needed, but you don’t prove yourself through code—you prove yourself through results. You have a strong sense of when something needs to be built properly and when speed matters more, and you make that call decisively. /p pYou don’t blindly rely on data or “the textbook.” You trust your intuition and experience, are willing to go against the grain when something doesn’t feel right, and make decisions even when not everything is certain. You don’t shy away from conflict; you use it as a way to move things forward. And you bring people along with you—from developers to non‑technical stakeholders—because you know how to communicate a vision clearly. /p pYou also have demonstrable experience working in a scale‑up or startup environment. /p h3About Us /h3 pGet-e is a fast‑growing B2B travel tech company based in Amsterdam, building a fully managed 24/7 platform that powers airport transfers and A-to-B travel worldwide.
