This role of Line Manager is focused on people leadership, performance management, capability development, engagement, and stakeholder alignment. The Line Manager will not own day-to-day delivery execution, but must have a solid understanding of software delivery processes, engineering team dynamics, stakeholder landscape, and product development flow in order to manage people performance effectively.
The ideal candidate is a strong people leader with experience from a software development environment, able to work across Product, Project/Delivery, Architecture, Engineering, Quality, and other functions.
Areas of responsibility:
People Management
Serve as a primary point of support for a group of software engineers — hold regular 1:1s, build trust-based relationships, and help people feel motivated, engaged, and set up for success.
Performance Management
Set clear expectations, provide structured and timely feedback, and recognize strong contributions. Address performance concerns early, with fairness and transparency.
Development and Career Growth
Lead meaningful development conversations and co-create Personal Development Plans. Help engineers identify growth opportunities and connect their aspirations with business and technology direction.
Stakeholder Management in the Matrix
Partner closely with Product, Delivery, and Architecture to ensure your team has clarity on priorities, the right support, and a clear path through matrix complexity.
Capability and Organizational Development
Identify skill gaps and succession risks, contribute to hiring and staffing decisions, and foster an engineering culture built on ownership, quality, and continuous improvement.
To succeed in your role, you should possess the following skills and competencies:
Previous role as Line Manager, People Manager, Engineering Manager, Delivery Manager, Scrum Master, Project Manager, Team Lead, or similar.
6+ years of experience in related fields
Practical understanding of Agile ways of working, engineering team dynamics, and key delivery roles.
Proven experience with performance conversations, feedback, development planning, and employee engagement.
Comfort working in a matrix environment with stakeholders across Product, Delivery, Architecture, and Engineering.
Experience supporting people through change, ambiguity, or shifting priorities.
The candidate should have experience in or close exposure to software delivery.
This does not necessarily mean the person must be a former developer, but they should understand how software teams operate and how value is delivered through product development.
Being the part of us means:
Meaningful work that helps to change the future of dentistry
Work in a unique professional, friendly and supportive environment
Constant professional growth and development
A healthy work-life balance
Comprehensive benefits incl. 24 working days of annual vacation; medical insurance; paid sick leaves and child sick leaves; maternity and paternity leaves etc
