Job Description
Engineering Manager – Mobile Apps
At Vipps MobilePay, we remove hassle, create dazzle, and make it very, very easy for people and businesses to pay and get paid. As the most-loved brands in Norway and Denmark (and climbing fast in Finland!), we power everyday commerce for over 11 million users and 400,000 merchants across the Nordics.
In the Merchant domain, our mission is to build seamless, world-class mobile experiences that empower businesses to connect effortlessly with their customers. We’re now looking for an empathetic, structured, and strategic Engineering Manager to nurture, lead, and champion our growing team of 12–14 iOS and Android engineers.
The opportunity 🚀
In this role, you won’t be writing code daily. Instead, your code is our organization. You will focus on our people, culture, and ways of working. Teaming up with Product Managers and Tech Leads, you’ll ensure our mobile engineers are aligned, motivated, and empowered with everything they need to build payment solutions that just work.
What you’ll do 🛠️
- Grow & coach our people: Act as a mentor and manager for 12–14 iOS and Android engineers across cross-functional teams, helping everyone learn, level up, and unlock their full potential.
- Build the community: Foster an open and inclusive learning culture across our mobile engineering communities, where people feel safe to experiment and share knowledge.
- Make things happen: Turn bold product visions into smooth execution by allocating resources, removing bottlenecks, and clearing organizational hurdles.
- Collaborate: Build strong collaboration with Tech Leads, Product Managers, and fellow EMs to help teams deliver well together.
Who you are 👀
To thrive in this role, we think you have to be:
- An empathetic leader: You believe in leadership built on trust, curiosity, and psychological safety.
- Mobile savvy: You have solid roots in the mobile development ecosystem and understand app store lifecycles, release rhythms, and platform quirks.
- Pragmatic & structured: You have a talent for cutting through ambiguity, creating clarity, and guiding your colleagues calmly through change.
- Product-minded: You understand how high-performing, cross-functional product teams operate and thrive.
Requirements
- You have experience in mentoring and managing engineering teams.
- You possess a solid understanding of the mobile development ecosystem, including app store lifecycles and release rhythms.
- You have a proven ability to foster an inclusive and high-trust engineering culture.
- You are skilled at collaborating with product managers and technical leads to drive execution.
- You demonstrate a pragmatic and structured approach to problem-solving and organizational change.
