مدير هندسة البرمجيات

Tarabut's engineering team in KSA is growing, and this role is central to making that growth count. As Engineering Manager, you will lead a team of five to eight engineers, owning their day-to-day delivery, their technical development, and their experience of working at Tarabut. You will be the person who makes the team function well: removing blockers, running strong rituals, giving clear and honest feedback, and making sure good work gets shipped. This is a role for someone who is technically credible, genuinely people-focused, and hungry to grow. The path to a more senior engineering leadership role at Tarabut is real, and this position is designed to be a platform for that progression for the right person. Applications will only be considered from Saudi nationals. What you'll be doing Team Delivery Own the delivery commitments of your team, ensuring work is well-planned, clearly communicated, and consistently completed to a high standard. Run effective sprint ceremonies, including planning, retrospectives, and stand-ups, and hold the team to the process disciplines that keep delivery predictable. Identify and remove blockers early, escalating to the Head of Engineering where needed rather than letting issues sit. Maintain a clear view of technical debt within your team's domain and work with the team to address it in a structured and proportionate way. People and Talent Development Hold regular one-to-ones with each engineer in your team, giving honest, constructive feedback and actively supporting their growth. Contribute to the hiring process for engineering roles in KSA, including reviewing applications, conducting interviews, and helping to assess technical and cultural fit. Support the onboarding of new engineers into your team, ensuring they are set up for success from day one. Identify engineers who are ready for more responsibility and work with the Head of Engineering to create the right conditions for their progression. Technical Contribution Stay close to the technical work your team is doing, contributing to code reviews, architectural discussions, and incident response where your involvement adds value. Ensure your team's work meets Tarabut's engineering standards on quality, security, and reliability, particularly in the context of our regulated operating environment in KSA. Collaborate with peer engineering managers and the Head of Engineering to maintain consistency in technical practices across the KSA engineering function. Requirements Must Have At least 5 years of software engineering experience, with a minimum of 1 to 2 years in a formal engineering leadership capacity, such as principal, tech lead, team lead, or engineering manager. Hands-on technical experience in backend or full-stack development, with enough depth to review code, contribute to technical decisions, and earn the trust of the engineers you manage. A track record of helping engineers grow, whether through mentoring, structured feedback, or creating the right conditions for people to do their best work. Experience working in an agile delivery environment, with confidence running sprint ceremonies and managing a backlog. Strong communication skills in English, with the ability to translate technical progress and risk into clear updates for non-technical stakeholders. Benefits Work at the centre of the open banking movement in one of the world's fastest-growing fintech markets. A team that invests in your growth, with structured learning, mentorship, and a clear career pathway. Competitive compensation and ESOPs. A culture of ownership, trust, and direct impact, with no bureaucracy and no politics. A real opportunity to grow into a senior engineering leadership role as Tarabut's KSA engineering function expands. The chance to help build an engineering team in KSA from a strong foundation, and to leave a lasting mark on how it develops.
