Head to getyourguide.careers to take the first step.\nTeam mission\nGetYourGuide knows a lot about travelers, and we want to make better use of that data. Identity, booking history, browsing behavior, care conversations, preferences and predictions all sit in separate systems, in different shapes. The User Platform team is a brand new function with truly outsized opportunity for impact. They are building the traveler context layer: resolving who someone is across devices and sessions, and turning scattered signals into a shared, interpretable, and predictive understanding that every team can build on. As this function matures, the scope will extend to our other users over time.\nRole overview\nAs an Engineering Manager, you will own the vision and set up for a new platform at GetYourGuide. You will be working with a Product Manager, engineers, an embedded data scientist, and an analyst. You will define what the traveler context layer holds, how it is served, and which problems it solves first. This is a genuine zero-to-one opportunity. Your team will design the identity model, the semantic memory that both humans and LLMs can read, the forward-looking predictions on top of it, and the self-serve interfaces that make it usable.\nThe work is equal parts craft and demand creation. Our consumers are other teams: search and ranking, lifecycle and paid channels, customer care, and the traveler experience itself. Their need is real and widely felt.\nWe are looking for an Engineering leader who is fluent in setting up new teams, data, a new platform, Backend systems, and who is comfortable when the scope of a domain is still being drawn, and who wants to build the foundation that personalization at GetYourGuide will run on for years.\nYour mission\nLead hiring and performance management for a team of engineers, setting a high bar for talent and enabling engineers to grow and perform at their best\nWork closely with the Product Manager in a highly collaborative setup to shape and deliver the roadmap and strategy, driving business results across a large, complex domain end-to-end, setting the tech direction for your team\nDrive technical excellence and own and raise the system health of the team\nFoster a supportive culture that continuously evolves based on learnings\nChampion an experimentation mindset, leveraging data and insights to validate ideas and iterate quickly\nCollaborate cross-functionally with stakeholders across the business to drive impactful initiatives\nYour toolkit\nA seasoned engineering leader with strong ownership, aligning technical direction with team and stakeholder needs\nComfortable navigating complex problem spaces and empowering your team to do the same\nPassionate about experimentation as a core tool for discovery and decision-making\nBring a full-stack mindset and can engage meaningfully across backend and frontend systems\nExperienced in applying AI technologies within product development\nA people-first leader who coaches and supports engineers at all levels without micromanaging\nDeeply customer-focused, using product judgment to guide roadmap and priorities\nThrive in an international, cross-functional environment with strong collaboration skills\nHow we’ll make your career journey extraordinary\nAnnual personal growth budget and mentorship programs for continuous learning and development\nWork from anywhere in the world for 30 days per year\nA hybrid working approach with three days of in office collaboration (Mon, Tue, Thur) and two days of optional at home focus time.\nOpportunities to collaborate and socialize with team members through quarterly team events and yearly company-wide events\nMonthly transportation and fitness budget\nDiscounts for you, your friends, and family on GetYourGuide activities\nLanguage reimbursement program\nHealth and wellness benefits\nAnd more…\nHow to apply\nSubmit your CV/resume in English using the form below.
