Team mission

At GetYourGuide, engineers work on problems that matter: building the systems that connect millions of travelers with experiences they'll remember for a lifetime. Our teams learn fast, take ownership, iterate, and build at real scale. AI is already reshaping how we build products and what travel can be. For the right engineer, this is an opportunity to do the most exciting work of their early career.

Your mission

• With support and mentorship, you’ll write clean code that ships to millions of travelers
• Work closely with senior and staff engineers to design and build reliable, scalable systems, bringing your own ideas to the table, not just executing tasks
• Take end-to-end ownership of features: from understanding the problem and designing the solution, to shipping, monitoring, and iterating
• Use AI tooling actively and intelligently as part of your daily workflow
• Help build AI-powered product experiences that change how travelers discover, book, and enjoy the world
• Participate in code reviews, improve our codebase, and help raise the quality bar across your team
• Engage with product and design partners to deeply understand the traveler problem you're solving, not just the ticket in front of you

Your toolkit

You're a fresh graduate, looking for your first full-time job and you've already shipped things like: side projects, open source contributions, coursework, internships, freelance work, or hackathon builds. You know what it feels like to take something from an idea to a working product. You're genuinely excited about what AI makes possible.

We know everyone's journey is different. Excited about the role and tick some of these boxes? We'd love to hear from you:

• Ownership-driven: You treat your work as your own. You don't wait to be told something is broken or could be better; you help to improve it, communicating early, asking for feedback, and collaborating with others to create a better state.
• Deeply curious: You dig into problems until you actually understand them. You learn fast and apply what you learn even faster
• Bias for action: You ship, gather feedback, and iterate. 
• Collaborative by nature: You know when to push ahead independently and when to pull in others. You ask questions early. You support your teammates through thoughtful feedback and clear communication
• You have hands-on experience with AI tools. You've built real things - projects using Claude or OpenAI APIs, apps built with tools like Lovable, or experiments that turned into something tangible
• Solid foundation in computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, basic system and API design concepts
• Familiar with building and shipping software, professionally or through your own projects
• Comfortable working across the stack either in backend or frontend systems

Extras that give you an edge

• An interest in contributing across the full stack (backend and frontend), with a willingness to learn our core technologies. This includes JVM languages (Kotlin, Java, Scala) for the backend and frontend essentials like React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, and CSS/styling frameworks.
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure concepts and distributed systems concepts like Kubernetes, AWS/GCP, microservices and event-driven architecture
• Open source contributions or a visible portfolio: a GitHub profile, a live project, something we can look at

How we’ll make your career journey extraordinary

• Annual personal growth budget and mentorship programs for continuous learning and development
• Work from anywhere in the world for 30 days per year
• A hybrid working approach with three days of in office collaboration (Mon, Tue, Thur) and two days of optional at home focus time. 
• Opportunities to collaborate and socialize with team members through quarterly team events and yearly company-wide events
• Monthly transportation and fitness budget
• Discounts for you, your friends, and family on GetYourGuide activities
• Language reimbursement program
• Health and wellness benefits

And more…

About the Role

As a hands-on Engineering Manager of one of our feature teams at Ledgy, you'll lead the engineers who build the features that help companies offer, manage, and communicate compensation and savings vehicles: from equity plans to pensions, carry, and beyond. Your team works on the products employees and companies use to make sense of complex compensation structures.

This is a good fit if you find it meaningful to work on features that are financially significant to the people using them, as getting compensation right matters. The work is domain-rich: these structures are complex, high-stakes, and varied. You'll report to the Head of Engineering and play a key role in expanding Ledgy's product coverage as companies increasingly look to offer diverse forms of compensation.

You'll Thrive in This Role If You

• Have 2+ years in Engineering Management and 6+ years as a Software Engineer, with meaningful time in product-focused or domain-heavy roles
• Are energised by features that have a direct, visible impact on end users — the things employees actually see and interact with
• Care deeply about correctness in domains where getting things wrong has real financial consequences
• Are comfortable with evolving scope — compensation takes many forms, and the product will grow to reflect that
• Actively use AI tools to multiply your output and are excited to help your team do the same — you see AI as a core part of how great engineering gets done today
• Love developing people and creating an environment where engineers can do their best work
• Want to stay hands-on — you're comfortable diving into the codebase, reviewing PRs with concrete feedback, and shipping yourself

What You'll Own

• Team Leadership: Setting technical direction for the team, running 1:1s and performance conversations, and supporting engineers in their growth.
• AI-Augmented Engineering: Modelling and promoting effective use of AI tools across your team — from coding assistants to automated workflows. You'll help engineers develop good instincts for where AI accelerates work and where human judgment matters most.
• Compensation & Savings Features: The product surface covering a range of compensation and savings vehicles — equity plans, pensions, carry, and more. Your team builds the logic and UX that makes these products usable for both companies and their employees.
• Employee-Facing Experience: Ensuring the features your team builds are not just correct, but clear and accessible to employees navigating complex compensation structures.
• Domain Breadth: As Ledgy expands into new compensation types, your team will be at the frontier, building the models and product experiences that bring them to life.

Our tech stack:

• Language: TypeScript

About the Role

As a hands-on Engineering Manager of our agent and developer platform at Ledgy, you'll lead the team that makes everything else possible, the infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, developer and agent tooling, security posture, and platform capabilities that thousands of employees worldwide depend on to experience equity ownership. You'll lead a team of 4–6 engineers building the foundation for Ledgy's next chapter: a platform where AI agents operate as first-class citizens alongside human engineers.

This is a good fit if you see DevOps, CI/CD, and platform engineering not as plumbing, but as one of highest-leverage investment a company can make - especially as AI agents become core contributors to how software is built and delivered. You'll also partner closely with our CISO to shape Ledgy's security strategy, particularly as AI transforms the threat landscape and our enterprise customers demand rigorous security practices. You'll report directly to the Head of Engineering and play a key role in scaling our platform and our engineering culture.

You'll Thrive in This Role If You

• Have a strong vision for what modern platform engineering looks like when AI agents are writing, testing, and deploying code alongside humans
• Bring deep experience in CI/CD, DevOps, and infrastructure - and opinions about how to make pipelines fast, reliable, and agent-friendly
• Are excited about building systems that scale: observability, deployment automation, developer experience, and infrastructure-as-code
• Have a security-minded approach to platform engineering - you understand that when AI agents have access to production systems and sensitive financial data, the security model needs to evolve, and you're eager to help define what that looks like
• Love developing people, watching engineers grow and tackle increasingly sophisticated challenges
• Want to remain hands-on - you're comfortable building with Terraform, debugging pipelines, and shipping improvements yourself, and you actively use AI tools to multiply your output
• Have 3+ years experience in Engineering Management and 6+ years as a Software Engineer, with meaningful time spent in platform, infrastructure, or DevOps roles

What You'll Own

• Team Leadership: Leading a team of platform engineers, setting technical direction, and creating an environment where people do the best work of their careers.
• CI/CD & Developer Experience: Our build and deployment pipelines - making them fast, reliable, and optimised for both human and AI-agent workflows. Think: how do we make it seamless for an agent to open a PR, get it reviewed, and ship it?
• Infrastructure & Observability: Our GCP infrastructure, Terraform configuration, monitoring, and alerting. You'll set SLOs and make sure we can see what's happening in production - including what agents are doing.
• Security Partnership: Working alongside our CISO to define and execute Ledgy's security strategy. This means helping prioritise what matters most for a regulated fintech serving enterprise clients - from supply chain security and access controls to the new challenges introduced by AI agents operating in production systems. You'll be the engineering leader who turns security strategy into implemented reality.
• AI Infrastructure & Agent Platform: Building the foundations that let both humans and AI agents operate effectively in Ledgy's systems. This includes an MCP interface that exposes our platform to AI tools, agent identity and access models (distinguishing human from agent actions in audit logs and permissions), dry-run and sandbox environments for safe experimentation.

Our tech stack:

We have a modern, cohesive stack that lets us move fast while maintaining quality:

• Join the engineering leadership team and understand how we translate product vision into technical reality
• Meet with our CISO and understand Ledgy's current security posture, compliance requirements, and where the biggest gaps are

First 3 Months

• Own and drive improvements to pipeline reliability and speed - set measurable SLOs for build times, deployment frequency, and failure rates
• Define and begin executing a roadmap for making our platform agent-ready: what needs to change so that AI agents can contribute code safely and at scale?
• Have regular 1:1s with your reports and support them in their growth
• Shape platform strategy alongside the Head of Engineering and CTO
• Partner with the CISO to define a security roadmap that accounts for AI-specific risks - agent access controls, code provenance, data exposure through AI tooling - and begin executing on the highest-priority items

6–12 Months

• Be recognised as the technical leader who defines how Ledgy's platform scales - for both humans and agents
• Have delivered measurable improvements to developer experience, deployment velocity, and infrastructure reliability
