Summary and responsibilities

Role overview

Summary

Doctolib is seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a team of 6-7 engineers in Berlin, focusing on delivery, quality, and production health. This role involves defining team missions, shaping technical direction, and modernizing legacy systems while recruiting and developing engineering talent.

What you'll do

  • Lead a team of 6 to 7 engineers of mixed seniority, owning delivery, quality and production health end to end — keeping engagement high and standards higher

  • Together with your product partner, define the mission and vision for your team and build a roadmap you can defend to stakeholders

  • Take part in architecture reviews and help shape the technical direction of the Scheduling stream, including the migration of core scheduling capabilities from the monolith into purpose-built services

  • Set and uphold the security, reliability, performance and scalability standards required to remain the most trusted e-health SaaS in Europe

  • Partner with Talent and People teams to recruit, develop and retain engineers through career conversations and feedback they can act on

  • Embed AI-assisted engineering into how your team works day to day, with a clear and honest view of where it helps and where it does not

  • Continuously improve how the team operates — planning, on-call, bug backlog, incident follow-up — so the team spends its energy on what moves the needle

Who you are

You'll be a great fit if you:

  • Have at least 6 years of software engineering experience and 3 years of engineering management experience, including leading a team of 5+ engineers through delivery, hiring and growth

  • Are credible with senior backend engineers — distributed systems, data modelling, latency and throughput are conversations you can hold and challenge; you stay close enough to the code to review a pull request, without needing to be the one writing it

  • Have hands-on experience modernising a large legacy system, ideally extracting services from a monolith, and know how to keep a team delivering while the ground moves

  • Are an effective communicator who can translate company goals into team objectives, and who says the uncomfortable thing early rather than late

  • Think critically and objectively, with a solution-oriented approach that brings people with you

It would be fantastic if you:

  • Have worked in a regulated industry such as healthcare or fintech, where privacy and data protection shape design decisions

  • Have navigated hyper-growth environments and understand the trade-offs they force on architecture and team organisation

  • Have formed a considered view on AI coding assistants — their real benefits and their real shortcomings
