Engineering Team Manager Java/Kotlin - TP&O

A hybrid work model that incorporates solutions developed by the leader and the team.
About the team
Our department builds and maintains the foundational technology that empowers Allegro. We provide a modern, efficient ecosystem for hundreds of international product teams, ensuring Allegro is always available, performant, and secure. We manage everything from data centers and private cloud solutions to deployment pipelines, SDKs, and compliance tooling. In short, we create the environment that enables Allegro employees to build products efficiently.
Within this department, the Prometeusz team is responsible for Development Environments - ephemeral, isolated copies of Allegro. We provide business teams means to test their changes in isolated Allegro instances, before deploying them on production.
To make it possible we develop cutting-edge, in-house tools tailored to Allegro's unique needs. We automate the whole process of creating isolated environments:
from deploying multiple services, setting up network to creating and provisioning databases. This allows our developers to spin up their own copy of Allegro consisting of tens to hundreds isolated services with a single push of a button.
We are looking for people who:


Have a strong programming foundation:
You're proficient in Java and/or Kotlin and you can apply your coding skills to develop custom solutions, automate tasks, and integrate with existing systems.
Have database skills:
You're comfortable working with various databases like Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis, and you can use this knowledge to monitor database performance and health.
Have basic Ops skills:
You have basic skills in Puppet and writing scripts (bash, Python, Go) and can apply it in practice to automate hosts management and monitoring.
Value engineering best practices:
You advocate for clean code, code review, TDD, and CI/CD to ensure the quality and maintainability.
Thrive in a collaborative environment:
You're a team player with strong communication skills and a positive attitude. You're eager to share your knowledge and learn from others. You are comfortable collaborating closely with other teams and exploring new technologies.

Additionally, we offer:


Thrive in Our Workspace:
Enjoy well-located offices with amenities like fully equipped kitchens, secure bike parking, ergonomic workstations (height-adjustable desks), and interactive meeting spaces designed for collaboration.
Choose Your Benefits:
Customize your compensation with a cafeteria plan offering diverse options like medical coverage, sports/wellness packages, lunch subsidies, insurance, and purchase vouchers.
Sharpen Your Skills:
Enhance your professional development with company-sponsored English classes tailored to your role and access to a generous training budget. Grow through our internal educational platform, MindUp, offering courses on everything from work organization and communication to cutting-edge technologies.
Work with the Best Tools:
Receive a top-of-the-line MacBook Pro or Dell laptop with ample RAM and storage, dual monitors, and all the tech essentials you need to excel.
Collaborate with Experts:
Join a team of top-tier specialists and experts in their respective fields, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and growth.
Own Your Work:
Enjoy a high degree of autonomy in organizing your team's work. We encourage experimentation, continuous learning, and taking initiative.
Engage and Connect:
Participate in company hackathons, team-building events, and "Team Tourism" trips to strengthen connections and spark innovation.
