Engineering Manager

Parloa’s mission is to make every customer conversation feel effortless for both customers and the companies serving them. As agentic AI accelerates, Parloans are shaping the foundation of a new era in customer experience, one where customer support is no longer transactions, but meaningful exchanges. It is not just a vision; Parloa has powered over ONE BILLION interactions between global enterprise brands and their customers, with companies like Booking.com, HealthEquity, Allianz, SAP, BarmeniaGothaer, and TUI already deploying Parloa at scale.

As an Engineering Manager at Parloa, you will be entrusted with one of the most critical missions:

• Building and leading a high-talent, high-performance team of engineers.

• Ensuring that the team delivers enterprise-grade, resilient, and innovative AI solutions that customers love.

• Raising the bar on technical excellence, cultural leadership, and operational discipline.

You are both a builder and a leader. You dive deep into technical challenges, but your true leverage comes from how you develop engineers, scale teams, and drive alignment with Parloa’s strategic goals. You balance autonomy with accountability, empowering your teams while ensuring they deliver measurable customer and business impact.

• Build and scale world-class teams: Hire, mentor, and elevate exceptional engineers. Create a culture of ownership, bias for action, and continuous improvement.

• Drive outcomes, not just output: Ensure every project directly contributes to Parloa’s strategic goals and delivers measurable customer value.

• Raise the technical bar: Partner with Staff and Principal Engineers to drive architectural excellence, reliability, and pragmatic perfectionism—design for tomorrow, build for today.

• Foster fearless culture: Enable fast, decentralized decision-making, encourage experimentation, and build trust by supporting your team in both successes and failures.

• Lead with alignment and clarity: Translate company strategy into clear objectives and measurable outcomes for your team.

• Ensure operational excellence: Instill high standards in security, availability, quality, and performance, making resilience and scale-by-design the default.

• Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with Product, Design, and Business leaders to ensure technical execution and product vision are tightly aligned.

• A proven engineering leader (8–12+ years in software engineering, 3–5+ years in people leadership) with a track record of delivering complex, enterprise-grade systems at scale.

• A talent magnet: you know how to attract, develop, and retain world-class engineers, raising the bar with every hire.

• A strategic operator who can both set vision and dive deep into technical or operational details when needed.

• A culture builder: you model integrity, ownership, customer obsession, and high standards, inspiring others to do the same.

• Fearless and pragmatic: you balance ambition with execution, turning bold visions into reality through iteration and disciplined delivery.

• Skilled in scaling organizations: you know how to build systems, not bureaucracy, to ensure sustainable speed and impact.
