hela Sverige At Viaplay Group, we entertain millions of people every day through our streaming services, radio networks, TV channels and production studios. We believe in the power of content not just as a way of telling stories and touching lives, but also expanding worlds.
We may have started in the Nordics, but we have a global mindset and consider ourselves to be the international streaming challenger. This means we're constantly launching our Viaplay streaming service in new markets and on the lookout for talented, curious, driven professionals to join us on our journey.
Right now, we're searching for an Engineering Manager in our Stockholm office for the Streaming Experience teams within the Product, Data and Technology organization.
The role
You will join a team of well versed, forward-thinking and humorous Engineering Managers, and together you will create the best place to work in the Nordic tech market!
Our product development process is built around by autonomous cross-functional teams. The day-to-day work is directed by a Product Manager who owns the backlog and focuses on the product initiatives.
Your role as Engineering Manager will be to supervise and coach two of our Viaplay Engineering teams, encourage personal and professional growth and make our co-workers feel motivated, appreciated and listened to. We are, in other words, looking for an Engineering Manager to focus on people management rather than technical or delivery management.
The journey ahead
With expansion in mind, we are a growing organization hiring both locally and globally. Moving from technical platform teams to autonomous cross-functional product teams has provided us with loads of learning and opportunities. Some of your work would be about:
• Apply a servant leadership mindset to grow motivated teams.
• Support your cross functional teams consisting of client, backend, cloud, streaming & video engineers as well as QA analysts through coaching and mentoring and creating opportunities for them to grow.
• Work closely with the teams having a customer-first mindset and guide them in continuous improvement and team dynamics.
• Be responsible for staffing and recruitment for your teams and the associated budget planning
• Performance management and career development
• Collaborate with Product Managers to set a direction for your teams.
• Work across the product and engineering organization together with other Engineering Managers to increase autonomy and improve ways of working.
• Wary about employee well-being.
What we are looking for
To be our new Engineering Manager, we believe that you are an experienced leader in the technology industry. You thrive in daily interactions with your teams and like to find new ways to do your job in an even better way. If you also, just like us, like to have fun at work and share energy - we might have a match!
Ideal candidates also meet the following requirements:
• Experience from leadership roles in an expanding tech- or software development organization either as a first-line manager or leader of leaders.
• Experienced in coaching and mentoring people and teams.
• Knowledgeable about product development and a user-centric approach.
• Solid experience of working in an agile environment and the linked agile practices
• Worked with people from different backgrounds and seniorities and find it inspiring to identify the best ways to help people find meaning in their work and grow in the process.
• You are passionate about systems thinking and curious about getting a deeper perspective on how things influence each other in a system.
• Solid stakeholder management experience and relationship building.
Bonus requirements that will make you stand out from the rest:
• Experience from the media / streaming industry to be able to understand some of the challenges that the teams are facing
• Experience from knowledge-sharing patterns and practices in a product organization.
• Involved in organizational design initiatives, improving ways of working and facilitating teams on their journey to be autonomous
Our product development approach
Fun facts about us: we develop our whole product in-house in our office at Ringvägen 52 with a flexible work environment. We use methods like Product Discovery to make sure we create products that our customers appreciate. We work with the latest technology and believe in putting innovation in the heart of things in order to create the best possible streaming product out there. We are investing a lot in our culture and our vision is to create and maintain an environment where everyone can relax, be themselves and grow. Join us today and be part of transforming the world of entertainment!
Our offering
• We've got the basics covered (and then some)! 30 days of paid vacation every year, flexible work arrangements and extra compensation on top of a parental pay lift.
• Your wellbeing matters. We have an attractive pension and insurance scheme with full health care coverage should you need it.
• A safe space to grow and up-skill with the freedom to try new things in autonomous teams. Our learning culture puts you in the driver's seat of your own development, while always making sure you feel supported with regular knowledge-sharing sessions, technical training, mentorship opportunities and peer-to-peer networks.
• An innovative environment with Hack Days, not once, but twice a year. This week-long initiative allows you to think outside the box and deliver creative, technical solutions that (more often than not) go on to be implemented, either in our product or our ways of working.
• A genuinely international and diverse group of colleagues to connect with. We're striving towards a 50:50 gender balance & we're not far off - plus last time we checked, we have more than 60 different nationalities across our nine offices!
• Entertainment is what we love, and entertainment is what we do. So, unlimited access to Viaplay seems only fair for you to get to know the product - including live sports & pay per view events, new release movie rentals, linear channels and more.
