* Collaborate with other stakeholders across the different business units, helping drive transparency.
You will have a significant impact on the business to define and improve the existing and future software engineering team and agile team set-up. Inspiring the team to grow more self-organised, setting up technical roadmaps and supporting the Director of Engineering in developing the technology strategy.
The basic requirements are as follows:
* Strong track record of people leadership & coaching qualities in an agile and digital environment - ideally, larger engineering teams 20+
* Know how to shape a software engineering (web) department on the cultural, practice and process level.
* Strong practical experience in establishing Architecture, Quality & Security processes
