Overview
- Tarabut's engineering team in KSA is growing, and this role is central to making that growth count.
- As Engineering Manager, you will lead a team of five to eight engineers, owning their day to day delivery, their technical development, and their experience of working at Tarabut.
- You will be the person who makes the team function well: removing blockers, running strong rituals, giving clear and honest feedback, and making sure good work gets shipped.
- This is a role for someone who is technically credible, genuinely people focused, and hungry to grow.
- The path to a more senior engineering leadership role at Tarabut is real, and this position is designed to be a platform for that progression for the right person.
- Applications will only be considered from Saudi nationals.

- Run effective sprint ceremonies, including planning, retrospectives, and stand ups, and hold the team to the process disciplines that keep delivery predictable.
- Identify and remove blockers early, escalating to the Head of Engineering where needed rather than letting issues sit.
- Maintain a clear view of technical debt within your team's domain and work with the team to address it in a structured and proportionate way.
- People and Talent Development: Hold regular one to ones with each engineer in your team, giving honest, constructive feedback and actively supporting their growth.
- Contribute to the hiring process for engineering roles in KSA, including reviewing applications, conducting interviews, and helping to assess technical and cultural fit.
- Support the onboarding of new engineers into your team, ensuring they are set up for success from day one.
- Identify engineers who are ready for more responsibility and work with the Head of Engineering to create the right conditions for their progression.
- Technical Contribution: Stay close to the technical work your team is doing, contributing to code reviews, architectural discussions, and incident response where your involvement adds value.
- Ensure your team's work meets Tarabut's engineering standards on quality, security, and reliability, particularly in the context of our regulated operating environment in KSA.
