We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to join the Order domain within Vinted Marketplace Engineering for a 1-year maternity cover.

In this role, you will lead a team of 6 engineers focused on the modularization of Order domain services - extracting critical functionality from the Core monolith into well-owned, scalable services.

Your mission is to deliver these extractions efficiently and safely, applying engineering best practices (architecture, reliability, observability, testing, and migration strategy) while partnering closely with the Order domain’s product team. You’ll also navigate multiple cross-domain dependencies, aligning interfaces and delivery plans to keep progress unblocked.

By strengthening the Order domain’s foundations, you’ll help Vinted make second-hand the first choice by building technology that enables geo-expansion and scalability.

Be accountable for:

• People in the team (ensuring that we have great people working in true harmony)
• Processes and procedures in a team (working in the right ways on the right things)
• Delivery management (get stuff done)
• Engineering quality – fostering high standards in code, architecture, and technical practices to ensure sustainable, reliable solutions

In practice, it means: 

• Lead a team of ±6 engineers 
• Build a strong team culture rooted in trust, ownership, and continuous learning
• Foster growth in others while growing as a leader yourself
• Ensure the team’s delivery according to the quarterly roadmap
• Creating an environment where quality is not just expected - it’s second nature

Your future fellow engineering managers in Order are defining what they do as follows:

• “What I enjoy most about the Engineering Manager role is leading a senior team and creating the environment where they can do their best work—high ownership, high productivity, and a sustainable pace. I like enabling engineers to tackle complex technical challenges, supporting strong technical decision-making, and seeing the team deliver high-quality, reliable solutions through clear goals, good collaboration, and solid engineering practices.” -  Gintarė
• “Inspiring people to become better versions of themselves, sometimes letting them fall and helping them get up or finding a way to get up themselves” - Gediminas

• Like getting things done and done well
• Have experience leading a software engineering team and delivering outcomes that you are proud of
• Know how to improve team efficiency
• Like working with people and helping them
• Know a thing or two about stakeholder management
• “Embracing uncertainty” is a phrase that does not scare you
• You can easily articulate the following terms: service-oriented architecture, monolithic vs modular architecture, tight vs loose coupling, technical debt, etc. You don’t have to know them in-depth, but a basic understanding will help you perform better by a mile
