Engineering Manager - Android / iOS

Amsterdam

At Adyen, we provide payments, data, and financial products in a single solution for customers like Meta, Uber, H&M, and Microsoft. We are the financial technology platform of choice. We engineer for ambition, creating an environment with opportunities for our people to succeed, backed by the culture and support to ensure they are enabled to truly own their careers. We are motivated individuals who tackle unique technical challenges at scale and solve them as a team. Together, we deliver innovative and ethical solutions that help businesses achieve their ambitions faster.

We're looking for experienced Engineering Managers to lead one of our Android or iOS teams within Channels, part of our Payment Engineering organization. These teams build and operate Adyen’s in-store payment method integrations, focusing on low-level integration layers, including payment kernels and compliance with global PCI standards. Their work forms the foundation of reliable, secure payments for retailers around the world. In this role, you’ll drive technical strategy, build and develop a high-performing engineering team, and shape the evolution of our platform as Adyen continues to scale globally.

Responsibilities

• Lead and develop a high-performing team: Manage engineers across all levels, owning day-to-day operations, planning, and hiring for our office in Amsterdam. Set clear individual and team goals that align with our strategic engineering ambitions and create an inspiring and collaborative team environment with an open communication/feedback culture.
• Work cross-functionally: Closely collaborate with our design, product, data, and engineer teams and other key stakeholders within Payments.
• Act as a multiplier: Motivate team members and provide coaching in areas including but not limited to: engineering best practices, scalable architecture design, product roadmap discussions.
• Bring structure and process to execution: Collaborate with different teams to design and implement new services with reliability/infra/data/dev in mind.
• Foster a culture of technical excellence: Drive globally optimized technical decisions with a focus on automation, partnering with other leads to evolve our solutions to process payments in store.

Requirements

• Experienced engineering leader: You bring a wealth of knowledge, with 7+ years in the Mobile (Android & iOS) and/or IoT software development industry within a fast-paced tech environment and 2+ years in a people management position.
• Technical leader with a strong engineering perspective: You've led Mobile strategy, shaped technical direction, improved reliability and performance, and ensured solutions are scalable and maintainable with a focus on automation.
• Hands-on when needed: While this is a management role, you're comfortable in technical discussions to guide your team and ensure sound decisions, and can partner across development teams to diagnose and resolve issues when needed.
• Technical skills: The team will primarily code in Android, iOS, or Kotlin. You have significant experience with one of these languages.
• In-store domain expertise: Your team will own payment method integrations for in-store payments, which includes knowledge around payment kernels, PCI, P2PE, and PCI PIN. Having experience with these protocols will be a significant benefit, however, a technical mind who can quickly learn new low-level technologies would also work.

We Offer

• Competitive salary
• Opportunity to work in a dynamic and innovative environment
• Professional development budget
• Diverse and inclusive workplace
