* Shaping the backend architecture:  

	* Providing guidelines and best practices to ensure high-quality and efficient backend development
	* Maintaining and evolving our shop monolith to keep it up to date with modern standards
	* Developing tooling and boilerplate code to empower other teams to build and manage backend services as easily and efficiently as possible
* mailing services:  

	* Maintaining and improving an existing mailing service that handles email templating and delivery.
	* Ensuring the service remains stable and adaptable to new requirements
* Identity & Access Management (IAM):  

	* Supporting teams by providing a project-based IAM solution that product teams can deploy independently

In this role, you will initially focus on hands-on technical tasks allowing you to gain a deep understanding of our infrastructure and system so that you know the code inside and out. Later, you will also take over managerial tasks and act as the people manager for the team.  

## Your tasks – this is what awaits you in detail

* You make sure we are continuously raising the engineering bar, with experience and passion for software excellence
* You are responsible for the delivery of the IAM and Mailing product, which is part of our Developer Experience and Platform Area, while balancing time, budget, and quality
* You develop, monitor and own the relevant KPIs for your teams (cost, SLAs, SLIs, etc.)
* You contribute to our guidelines, policies and standards to improve how we work
