Role
Who you are
- We need a hands-on leader who "speaks" Kubernetes fluently and has deep expertise in Go to guide architectural decisions and compliment senior engineers
- Engineering Management Experience: 5+ years of experience managing software engineering teams, with a track record of delivering complex enterprise software
- Deep Coding Expertise: Strong background in software development with Go is desired, however, a strong background in C, C++, and Java is acceptable
- Kubernetes Mastery: Advanced knowledge of the Kubernetes ecosystem. You understand how to build applications for Kubernetes, not just run them on it
- Full-Stack Awareness: Experience managing or working with frontend engineers. Familiarity with modern JavaScript frameworks (Vue.js preferred, or React/Angular) and how they consume backend APIs
- Collaboration Skills: Proven ability to work cross-functionally with Engineering Leaders, Product Management, Customer Support and Sales to translate business requirements into technical specifications
- Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or relevant industry experience
What the job involves
- Veeam Kasten is the leader in Kubernetes Backup and Disaster Recovery. We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead an established, talented team of backend and frontend engineers building the next generation of cloud-native data protection
- In this role, your focus will be on execution, technical excellence, and talent retention
- You will manage a full-stack team (Go backend/Vue.js frontend) and collaborate closely with Product Management to prioritize features and deliver a world-class user experience
- Team Leadership & Development:
- Lead and mentor an established team of Backend (Go) and Frontend (Vue.js) engineers
- Focus on retention and individual professional growth through regular 1:1s, performance reviews, and career planning
- Foster an inclusive, collaborative, and innovative engineering culture within the existing group
- Technical Strategy & Guidance:
- Serve as a technical subject matter expert in Kubernetes
- Participate in architectural reviews and design discussions, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, and cloud-native
- Bridge the gap between backend complexity and frontend usability
- Drive engineering best practices, including code quality, testing standards (unit/integration/e2e), and security
- Product Delivery & Collaboration:
- Partner closely with Product Managers to define the roadmap, estimate effort, and prioritize the backlog
- Collaborate with other Engineering Managers to identify dependencies, resolve bottlenecks, and align on cross-team technical initiatives
- Balance the delivery of new features with the necessity of maintenance and technical debt reduction
Our take
The increasing reliance of businesses on data and the growing volume of data generated make organisations more vulnerable to cyberattacks. Veeam is a leading provider of backup, recovery, and data management solutions, focusing on simplifying backups for virtual machines, achieving any recovery objective, maximising investments, and reducing management overhead.
Veeam continuously introduces product updates, recently including cloud-native solutions to protect data across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The company currently safeguards data for over 400,000 customers worldwide, including over 80% of the Fortune 500 and 70% of the Global 2,000, with clients like Fujitsu, Siemens, and VW.
Its acquisition by Insight Partners in 2020 enables Veeam to expand into new markets, fueling its continued growth. Veeam is poised to remain a leader by driving industry innovation and staying ahead of increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks.
