About the role

Your Role

Are you an experienced engineering leader with a strong technical foundation and an understanding of networking protocols and applications? Do you enjoy leading teams working on complex, performance-sensitive software?

At emnify, you will lead a team focused on control plane packet processing, a critical part of our platform that bridges telecom protocols and internet-based systems. This domain is central to how we enable reliable, high-performance connectivity at scale. As part of the Engineering organization, you will take ownership of a team working on one of our most complex and performance-sensitive areas. You will guide both people and technical direction, ensuring the team delivers robust solutions while continuously improving how it operates.

The Packet Gateway environment includes:

  • Go for control plane services in a cloud-native architecture
  • AWS infrastructure, primarily EKS, with supporting managed services
  • Distributed systems communicating via Kafka and gRPC
  • Designing solutions based on networking protocols and packet processing concepts

Your Impact

  • Lead and develop a team of ~6 engineers, driving performance, clarity, and accountability
  • Provide technical direction for the team's control plane packet-processing systems, working with engineers and adjacent teams to ensure sound design and maintainable solutions
  • Translate engineering priorities into clear plans, managing delivery, risks, and dependencies
  • Work closely with adjacent teams to align on architecture, trade-offs, and system evolution
  • Build a strong team environment through coaching, feedback, and structured development

What We Expect

  • Demonstrated experience leading engineering teams, including ownership of team performance, delivery, and development
  • Solid foundation in networking protocols and concepts, particularly TCP/IP
  • Strong technical foundation through hands-on software engineering in Go or C++, or through substantial software/system architecture experience
  • Clear and effective communication, with the ability to align stakeholders, guide decisions, and drive execution
