About Vidsy

At Vidsy we're building the platform and ecosystem for creators and brands to work and win together! Our creative platform helps the world's biggest brands create effective video ads while also providing the opportunities and tools for creators to build their own business and thrive working with these brands! We're building a different way to create; democratising creativity, empowering brands and creators to build value for each other.

It’s exciting times at Vidsy, starting from a London coffee shop to being named as one of Wired’s Hottest Start-Ups, Deloitte's Tech Fast 50 and one of Campaign's 2021 Best Places To Work, and we're continuing to scale across Europe (London) and the US (NYC & LA) too. We’re growing fast and backed by global creative partnerships with Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Pinterest, Google, Twitter and TikTok. Join us and help build a new creative ecosystem where everyone wins!

Role

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to join our growing Engineering & Product Department, to help drive meaningful outcomes and deliverables via our Engineering Team, whilst fostering a supportive, high performing and growth oriented environment within our Team.

Within the role you’ll work closely with Vidsy’s C-Suite to regularly communicate achievements coming out of our engineering team, whilst also taking accountability for the results and deliverables of our engineering team as a whole.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Mentoring, supporting and developing our engineers through regular 1:1s, feedback sessions and career tracking.
• Working with senior and principal engineers to maintain a constant understanding of the technical challenges and opportunities our team are currently tackling.
• Working closely with Vidsy’s C-Suite to report on progress of new products and features being rolled out by the Team, and briefing them on the relative intricacies and importance of these deliverables as required.
• Helping break down team milestones into achievable projects that align to Vidsy’s roadmap and Vision.

Required Experience

• Prior experience managing teams of high-performing software engineers.
• Proven track record of scaling up engineering teams.
• Although you maybe ‘hands off’ now, a background in software engineering is essential, and a passion for engineering and constant curiosity that enables you to stay up to date.
• Proven experience taking accountability for technical deliverables through a managerial post.
• An excellent communicator and relationship builder - able to help mentor junior engineers and challenge them to progress within their respective roles, right through to working with C-Suite on achieving Vidsy’s product roadmap and vision.

Our 'Virtual-First' Approach

As a business Vidsy believes in the power of in-person connection and collaboration, but also recognises that the majority of work undertaken by our team can be done so effectively and efficiently in a remote environment. For that reason we're spearheading a 'virtual first' environment, meaning our Team will work remotely the majority of the time - with the right kit and setup to ensure they can do so productively - with 'hubs' for in-person collaboration and team gatherings.

For our UK based Team our hub will be London, meaning we welcome applications from across the UK as long as you're open to travel into London, as and when needed.

Diversity at Vidsy

Vidsy is working hard to create a representative, inclusive and super-friendly team, because we believe different experiences, perspectives and backgrounds make a better workplace, and ultimately better products.

Vidsy doesn’t discriminate on the basis of race, colour, religion or belief, gender, national origin, age, sexual orientation, marital status, disability or any other protected class.

Job Description

Head of Engineering

We are seeking a hands-on Head of Engineering for our well funded e-commerce fulfillment startup

At Bezos, our vision is to Deliver Happiness: For our team, for the end consumers, for our e-commerce sellers as well as our logistics partners.

Exciting times in e-commerce: E-commerce sales in Europe is projected to be £406 billion by 2023, expected to grow 8% per year between 2018-2023. The growth is driven by consumers that increasingly buy more online as well as the emergence of small and medium e-commerce sellers, which have grown at 18% and 28% per year, respectively between 2009-2017. There are 200,000 small and medium e-commerce sellers in the UK alone, selling their products through multiple channels, including marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay, their own websites, and on social media like Facebook and Instagram. Today, these small and medium sellers are ignored by the large incumbent logistics service providers and we are on a mission to change that.

Building a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service platform: With this explosive growth in e-commerce, the demand for e-commerce fulfilment and delivery is booming. Bezos is a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform, that allows small and medium e-commerce sellers to outsource their storage, fulfilment, delivery, and returns and focus on what is more important: growing their businesses. Bezos’ operational model is based on partnering with certified logistics suppliers that will execute the different services on our behalf. We believe there is a massive market opportunity to serve these currently unattended and fast growing small and medium e-commerce sellers. We believe that the e-commerce logistics landscape will give place to significant disruption opportunities, and we are planning on taking a leading role to achieve them.

Two founders with proven track records: The founding team consists of Diego Lijtmaer and Vernon Tjon-Soei-Len, who are two seasoned technology executives with experience in e-commerce, the gig economy and last mile delivery industry. Diego built the business development and logistics functions at Just Eat Plc (food delivery, FTSE 100), founded and ran a hospitality business Bacanal and worked in investment banking at UBS (LinkedIn profile here). Vernon was the Director of Amazon Flex UK (part of Amazon’s Last Mile Product & Technology team) and part of the Senior Leadership Team of Amazon Logistics UK, and prior to that worked at Zipcar, Bain & Company and JPMorgan (LinkedIn profile here).

We are looking for an exceptional technology leader: Someone that gets excited about the adventure of a startup and wants to build a world class billion dollar business. Someone that enjoys transforming industries, that enjoys changing the way businesses and consumers think about delivering and receiving e-commerce orders. Someone that is hands on, solves problems, and gets their hands dirty in the execution. Someone that has a demonstrated track record of building amazing technology and building and leading high performance tech teams.

Key responsibilities:

• Build Bezos’ Fulfillment-as-a-Service platform
• Lead technology strategy, develop the technical solution, the architecture, the integration with other processes and systems and develop the Artificial Intelligence engine that manages our processes
• Own the engineering product roadmap, prioritising development efforts in line with company objectives
• Build a world class tech team: Hire, onboard and develop the best talent and cultivate an inspiring team culture with us
• Collaborate with sellers, logistics providers and internal teams to fix bugs and improve our products
• Part of the executive team, making sure the company’s technology is aligned with the business objectives

Must have requirements:

• 5 years+ experience of software and technology development, ideally 2 years+ in a startup
• Experience in developing technology for e-commerce, logistics, last mile or supply chain
• Experience in back-end integrations, APIs and microservices, cloud architecture fundamentals (AWS or Google Cloud), databases
• A charismatic technology leader: Experience in hiring, managing and leading engineering teams
• A strategic thinker and a doer: the ability to build bridges between strategy and execution and balance short term and long term objectives
• A product-focused engineer that is customer-centric
• Ability to communicate complex technology solutions to different stakeholders
• Passion for delivering results, but also learning from failure
• Analytical and data-driven: support decisions with hard facts, data and numbers
• Experience and ability to lead agile product engineering in a fast growing start up
• Knowledge of existing and emerging technologies: Evaluate multiple technologies and identify those that are the best fit for the business
• A positive outlook, boundless energy and thrive on collaboration in agile and startup environments
• Good vibes: Fostering team spirit; someone all developers look up to and aspire to work with

Preferred requirements (nice to have):

• Understanding of e-commerce platforms (Marketplaces, Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon), logistics systems such as warehouse and inventory management systems
• Experience with managing distributed/remote software developers
• Experience with node.js or Golang (Go)
• Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence

We strive to create an exciting and amazing opportunities where our team members love to work and have fun with each other. We offer a competitive compensation package which includes an attractive base salary and stock options.
