đ§đ»âđ» About the role
First things first: you want to know what youâre actually applying for. Itâs impossible to capture every nuance of a role â especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews â but if we had to distil it down to a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:
Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you will be responsible for managing the delivery of our engineers within our cross-functional Connectivity tribe. You will work alongside a product manager and designer and together you will make data-informed decisions about the team roadmap and overall heading of the product. Your teams will be truly yours to lead. Your Director of Engineering will act as your support and guide, and together you will decide what roles and team members you need to succeed. You will be the driver for staffing plans, hiring, promoting, etc.
Although we do not expect you to be coding, it is critical that you have a firm engineering background. You must understand the software development lifecycle in a SaaS company and be comfortable reviewing system architecture and code pull requests. But most importantly, you can challenge the teamâs operation using your skills, knowledge, and experience.
At Mews, we operate in a high-performing environment that values open communication and collaboration. Our software delivery process is based on Agile methodologies, with a focus on delivery flow, stable teams, and a reliable development lifecycle. Our leaders inspire and guide us towards achieving our goals, and we are committed to continuous learning and improvement.

- Collaboration with product managers and designers from your own team and across Mews.
- Delivery planning and roadmap execution.
- Maintaining and improving the quality levels of the product.
- Challenging the status quo and constantly improving team and delivery processes.
Required Skills:
- 2+ yearsâ experience as an Engineering Manager leading multi-disciplinary teams.
- Experience working with geographically distributed teams in a hybrid environment.
- Excellent interpersonal, communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management skills.
- A sense of ownership of your team, product and delivery.
- Extensive Agile experience with different methodologies and tools such as Scrum, Kanban, Lean, and Shape-up.
- Knowledge of Agile project management tools such as Jira, Confluence.
- Excellent understanding of software development lifecycles, from concept and delivery through to support and maintenance.
- Experience working with cloud providers.
- Experience building and maintaining a SaaS product is a plus.
- Experience working in a rapidly changing environment or scale-up is a plus.
đ Whatâs in it for you?
Did you know that Mews was voted the Best PMS of 2024 and has previously held the title of Best Place to Work in Hotel Tech for two consecutive years? You do now. Most of that is down to our inspiring team, but part of it is because of some pretty amazing perks. As well as awesome colleagues and stimulating work, you'll get:
- Participation in the Company shares program

Best-in-class Parental Leave Policy. At Mews, as the primary caregiver you get 6 months of fully paid parental leave, and as a secondary caregiver, you get 2 months of fully paid parental leave.(No matter your location, this can be used during the 1st year and applies if you've been employed for at least 1 year at Mews)

đ€·đ» Who is Mews?
We want to get to know you, so itâs only fair we tell you a little bit about ourselves first. Mews has been transforming hospitality since 2012. What began in a single hotel in Prague now powers thousands of hotels around the world, as they pursue their mission to develop transformational solutions for brands and create remarkable experiences for guests.
Since the beginning, Mews embraced being different. Mews is not simply a property management system, but a connected hospitality cloud with products across the hotel ecosystem and more integrations than anyone else.
From global hospitality brands to independent properties, hoteliers join Mews because they recognize the power of innovation. They understand that they can benefit from hotel tech that drives efficiency, maximizes revenue, and improves guest happiness.
Powering over 5,000 customers across more than 85 countries, Mews Hospitality Cloud is designed to streamline operations for modern hoteliers, transform the guest experience and create more profitable businesses.
Ranked 24th in the FT 1000 list of the fastest-growing European companies in 2021, Mews has been recognized as the Best PMS by industry peers at the HotelTechAwards in both 2020 and 2024, consistently earning acclaim. Mews also achieved finalist status in 2021 and 2022. What's more, we take immense pride in being listed among the Best Places to Work in Hotel Tech during those same years and again this year. But our achievements don't stop there; Mews was also listed among the World's Best Hotel PMS Provider 2023 and as the World's Best Independent Hotel PMS Provider 2022 and 2023 by the World Travel Tech Awards.
đ Life at Mews
Thatâs what we do, but what about who we are? Mewsâ culture is special and difficult to capture in words, which makes writing this tricky. You'll experience the freedom to be yourself and the ability to watch your ideas come to life. Youâll have an open line of communication and an open invitation to after-work drinks, be they virtual or in-person. Sometimes the work can be challenging and there can be a lot of it, but youâll always be able to rely on those around you.
Yes, weâre ambitious and we move fast, but we know the value of fun and taking a breather. Every month we have a Wellness Wednesday, a day off that you can use to boost your health, whether thatâs a long lie-in, a trip to the gym, or anything in between. We have slack channels for almost every interest imaginable, and an all-company meeting every Friday gives you the chance to ask any question to our leadership team.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so youâve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, weâre striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- Weâd recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on âwhat makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,â we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see whatâs out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and havenât encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, âI think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, weâll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
