Engineering Manager - Commercial Products

We’re AD/01, the tech studio that builds the future of food retail. Whether it’s in-store aisles, online baskets, or behind-the-scenes operations, we innovate the daily food experiences for farmers and families, grandmas and greengrocers, and pickers and packers alike.

Your new role and environment.

As Engineering Manager, you will have the opportunity to lead and inspire talented engineers while working on cutting-edge projects in the Merchandising area (Pricing, Promotions, Assortment/Planogramming). You will help shape innovative solutions that optimize pricing, promotions and assortment processes, establish integrations of WMS, POS, E-commerce and other tools with the core ERP, governance and controls, all while fostering a culture of collaboration, growth and technical excellence. This is a chance to make a real impact on how we serve millions of customers every day, in a team that values creativity, autonomy and continuous learning.

Key responsibilities of your role.

Your role is highly diverse and encompasses various responsibilities. Here are the key ones:

• Lead and develop high-performing engineering teams by mentoring, coaching and supporting career growth while fostering autonomy and a culture of collaboration and technical curiosity.


• Own technical delivery and performance within your domain, ensuring products are built to be scalable, reliable and fit for purpose.


• Drive engineering excellence by promoting best practices and enabling continuous improvement across systems and processes.


• Balance hands-on technical engagement with leadership – while most of your time will be spent enabling the team, you will remain technically current and contribute strategically to the product backlog.


• Collaborate with Product Managers, Architects and cross-functional teams to align technical execution with product vision, roadmap priorities and business objectives.


• Manage complex technology landscapes and ensure the architecture and technical solutions support operational excellence, system reliability and scalability.
