Your mission

A great travel experience doesn’t end once the "Book" button is clicked. At BlaBlaCar, ensuring peace of mind and flexibility after the purchase is the mission of the Post-booking squad. Whether it’s accessing an e-ticket, managing a ride plan, or handling cancellations and exchanges, their role is to provide a seamless, trustable, and transparent experience that supports passengers every step of the way until they reach their destination.

As Engineering Manager of the Post-booking squad, your mission is to lead a diverse, talented team of frontend and backend engineers to build a scalable and reliable "After-Book" platform. You will be at the heart of BlaBlaCar’s transformation into a global marketplace, tackling the challenge of unifying post-booking services for carpool, bus, and train supplies into a single, high-performance architecture.

You will achieve this by partnering closely with a dedicated Product Manager, a Product Designer, and our Data team to define the vision, execute the roadmap, and drive a culture of technical excellence across the company.

Your responsibilities

• Engineering Leadership: Act as the main engineering advisor to the Product Manager and business stakeholders, participating in the definition of the squad’s objectives and long-term technical roadmap

• Delivery Management: Facilitate the planning and delivery of complex, cross-team projects while ensuring performance, stability, and long-term scalability

• Stakeholder Management: Collaborate with Product Managers from the OTA, Bus, Train, and Carpool teams to prioritize deliveries according to our business objectives and report on your squad’s progress

• People Management: Recruit, inspire, and grow your team of engineers through mentorship, career development, and regular feedback

• Operational Excellence: Foster a culture of innovation and continuous improvement, ensuring the team leverages modern tools (like AI-driven acceleration) to maintain high productivity and quality

Your qualifications

• Management Experience: A confirmed experience in a management position with proven people management skills

• Technical Background: Experience in building reliable, scalable, and secure consumer-facing products, ideally with knowledge across backend (Java, Spring) and frontend (Kotlin, Swift, React, TypeScript) stacks

• Communication: Strong leadership and communication skills in English, with the ability to bridge the gap between technical constraints and business/compliance requirements

• Problem-Solving: A track record of "getting things done" and the ability to take a step back to prioritize added-value tasks in a high-stakes environment

• Agile Expertise: Experience in managing development processes using agile methodologies such as Scrum or Kanban
