Lund, Sweden TBAuctions Full time

At TBAuctions we manage both the Seller and Buyer experience through two flagship products. Our Sellers use our back-office application, Atlas, to manage their inventories and set up their auctions. Our buyers can then view these auctions on our white-label storefront website, based on a single solid foundation then customized per auction brand that we own. Our main technical mission is to migrate the rest of our brands onto these two products and reach feature parity across the entire auctioning industry.

TBAuctions handles 2.9 million items annually, has 30 million website visits per month, can reach 10 bids per second, and employs over 1000 people. Culture

At the tech department, culture is very important, and we take it seriously. After all, it is the people that make the company, not software.

  • Communication and collaboration are key words in our daily work.
  • We aim to communicate with each other as clearly and directly as possible without interrupting anyone’s productivity and workflow.
  • We aim to establish the requirements and the “why” and “who” of tasks so engineers can be responsible for the quality of work delivered while understanding the needs of the end user.
  • We aim to create an office environment where our engineers feel safe, uninterrupted, and want to collaborate.
  • We aim to foster a culture that allows for open communication and differences of opinion, where every voice can be heard.
  • We value continuous learning and growth by breaking down knowledge silos and encouraging collaboration and knowledge sharing to build strength and redundancy within our organization.
  • We aim to break the stigma surrounding stress and mental health issues and actively work to raise awareness of such challenges in the workplace.
About the position

We have an international group of developers based in Lund, Amsterdam, and throughout Poland. We are looking for someone who is comfortable leading and managing developers in-person in our Lund office and remotely for those located in the Netherlands and Poland.

Your main tasks:
  • Lead and manage a group of developers dispersed over multiple teams.
  • Together with other managers, define the group’s strategy and long-term vision and define and execute upon goals.

  • Coach and mentor. Support the developers through various activities.
  • Motivate and inspire the developers to achieve high levels of performance and job satisfaction.
  • Be a role model. Set the tone through your own actions in creating an environment where ideas can be shared, questions can be asked, and individuals are accountable for their actions.
  • Continuously improve our engineering processes and practices, working collaboratively with existing tech leads, project managers, and product managers to optimize workflows and enhance efficiency.
  • Continuously monitor efficiency based on individual velocity.
  • Coordinate developer response in case of an incident and communicate with stakeholders about the progress and conclusion of the actions taken.
What we don’t expect you to do:
