Head of Engineering

📍 Paris | Full-time | Fluent 🇫🇷 & 🇬🇧

 

At Bigblue, we're building the logistics backbone for the next generation of commerce.

Modern brands sell everywhere: through their own online stores, marketplaces, retail, social commerce, and more. Across every channel, customers expect the same fast, reliable, and transparent experience after they buy. What used to be Amazon's exclusive advantage is now becoming the standard for every ambitious brand. We're helping them get there.

Since 2018, we've built a tech-driven fulfilment platform used by 600+ brands, including Muji, Aigle, Scuffers, and Cabaïa. With 200+ Bigbluers across the UK, France, Spain, and Germany, our proprietary tech stack, and a network of 9 warehouses and over 100,000 sqm of fulfilment space across Europe, we ship millions of orders every month. And we're nowhere near done!

Backed by €20M+ in funding, we're expanding across Europe and building the operating system that will power modern commerce operations at a global scale.

At Bigblue, we hold ourselves to a very high bar: in the quality of our product, the rigour of our operations, and the care we bring to every merchant we work with. You'll be working alongside talented people on real, high-impact problems, in an environment where high standards come with genuine support, ownership, and room to grow. If you want your work to matter from day one, you're in the right place.

 

 

You are an experienced people manager, team leader, and hands-on software engineer. You are passionate about simple solutions to complex problems, whether they are product or software. You thrive on growing and enabling people to have the biggest impact possible. You have designed and built complex and mission-critical products and systems, and have seen them scale from 1 engineer to one team and to multiple teams. You've been a consistent example of high standards, growth mindset, and teamwork for your entire team.

As Head of Engineering, you will report to Mathias, our co-CEO, and work hand-in-hand with him and the Product team to grow the team from a flat structure to mission-defined teams. You will be responsible for all software delivery and for goal-setting for engineering. You will recruit, support, and scale our culture of product engineering, innovation, and pragmatism within Engineering.
