London, Greater London, United Kingdom Wonderbly Full time

We are seeking an experienced Technical Ecommerce Platform Manager to lead our ecommerce platform team at Wonderbly. As a key member of our Technology team, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality ecommerce experiences to our customers worldwide.

">About the Role

This is a highly technical role that requires strong leadership skills, a deep understanding of designing and building complex systems, and excellent communication skills. You will work closely with our product managers to craft and deliver future customer experiences.

As part of our senior leadership team, you will represent our ecommerce engineering pillar by reporting on roadmap delivery, systems stability, and proposing new tooling for other departments to leverage.

You will be equally comfortable writing code and communicating complex technical problems to anyone at Wonderbly. While coding and helping others code is an essential part of the role, it is just as important to be able to connect each feature to our long-term strategy.

The full-time team currently consists of two frontend and two backend engineers as well as a QA automation engineer. It will be your responsibility to develop the career paths of your talented full-time team, providing them constructive feedback and allowing them to benefit from your experience.

  • Lead an eager and talented team – You'll step into a brand-new leadership role, guiding a strong, motivated team that's ready to take on bigger and bolder challenges.
  • Build a world-class ecommerce experience – With our modern frontend stack, you'll play a lead role in delivering next-generation experiences for millions of our customers worldwide.
What You'll Do

Over the next 12 months, you'll be leading the team to deliver our next personalisation product discovery & creation mission, obsessing over our customer's experience: loading performance, interactivity, and site stability, scaling our technology systems to keep pace with business growth, our publishing roadmap and expansion into new product categories.

You'll also be optimising our scoping and delivery processes while improving our first-class dev team, ensuring systems are secure and scalable, leading efforts to prepare for peak trading events and being on-call with your team for any issues.

Regularly contributing to weekly team and all company meetings, sharing your knowledge and insight, advancing the careers of your reports and celebrating their progress company-wide, laying the foundations for a new generation of technology to support Wonderbly's growth.

Your Background
  • 10+ years experience working in different roles across multiple development teams, with at least 5 years in a management role
  • Deep understanding of designing and building complex systems for high traffic customer facing companies like ours
  • Ability to decide when making trade-offs between speed vs quality, and can communicate clearly why when you choose one over the other
  • Find joy in programming and relish making tough design decisions by comparing the many languages/tools/libraries that you might use to solve a problem
  • A natural love of people's career development, aided by your guidance, feedback and being champion of their achievements
  • Always challenging yourself and others to be better and improve
  • Appreciation of nicely designed, high-quality, well-tested codebases - and ability to communicate why they're important
  • An instinctive and easy empathy with all colleagues
