We think you are a person driven by curiosity to explore new areas and understand “how it all fits together” before diving into the details. You are a passionate leader who loves working with a team developing people and businesses together, with the IKEA culture and values at heart.

We believe you have solid leadership experience working with developing technology services and/or products within an Agile and DevOps set-up. You are motivated by setting the strategic direction for an area/business flow and managing stakeholders across the Ingka Digital organization to drive the area/business flow toward the desired outcome.

We have colleagues from different cultures and backgrounds and we believe that you also value the power of diversity.


YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

As an engineering manager, you are the line manager for a team of software engineers and are accountable for the technical delivery within our digital organization. You will have the exciting challenge to:

Build and run the technology that underpins our global 40 Billion Euro business, operating across 400 stores and 30 countries.

Creating software with a greenfield approach, with a massive scale impact in one of the IKEA key areas for the coming years.

Work in a startup-like environment, but with all the support of a global, iconic and value-driven company like IKEA.

Build digital products from scratch, lead, inspire and motivate a high-performing team of software engineers. You will help the team drive a cloud-first agenda, adhere to modern software engineering principles, utilize the proper tools, and automate everything to enable the specified business outcomes.
Recruitment, performance, competence and career development of individuals will also be part of your responsibilities.

We believe a healthy and flexible life balance is important, so together we will strive to create a work environment where you feel in control of your life balance, can be yourself, grow and excel in both your personal and professional life.
