VP of Technology

I am recruiting for a fast-growing European company scaling its technology organization. They have multiple engineering teams working across different product areas but lack consistent engineering culture and standardized processes. They need someone to unify the function and prepare it for the next phase of growth.

VP of Tech

Warsaw Poland Hybrid (3 days on-site) PLN

The role

You will manage the heads of three engineering areas and report directly to the CPTO. You are the layer between the executive team and the engineering function. You make sure the teams ship the standards rise and the culture improves.

You will standardize how the engineering organization works. That means defining and enforcing engineering culture practices delivery standards and operational rhythms across all teams. You will identify what is broken fix it and make sure it stays fixed.

You will prepare the organization for transformation. The company is changing how it builds and ships technology. You will lead that preparation remove blockers and make sure the teams are ready for what comes next.

You will take end-to-end responsibility across all three engineering areas. When something fails you own it. When something ships well you built the system that made it possible.

You will be in the Warsaw office at least 3 days per week. Engineering leadership is a contact sport. Calibration happens in person.

No visionary technology leader. No digital transformation evangelist. No inspiring the troops. This is a hands-on engineering leadership role for someone who fixes broken culture standardizes how teams work and prepares organizations to scale.

If that is you apply with a short note on the largest engineering organization you have standardized and what was broken when you started.
