ActiveCampaign's engineering team is growing rapidly and we are looking for experienced Engineering Manager to join our Kraków Hub. Our ideal candidate is someone who thrives in a high-growth environment with rapidly evolving needs, and is ready to lead teams through a significant AI-first transformation. We're looking for driven and curious engineering leaders who combine strong people management with technical depth, and who are open to embracing new technologies and ways of working. Our Kraków Hub houses multiple engineering teams — Forms, Integrations, Ecommerce, Agency, CRM, Mobile, CampaignsUI, and Content — working across different product pillars with a shared focus on building agentic workflows into all core functionalities across the ActiveCampaign platform. Our engineering managers are people with varying technical backgrounds and interests who are heavily involved in the technical details of their team. As managers, our main focus is keeping our teams efficient, well-prioritized, and executing on the right goals. We build teams that are inclusive, collaborative, and have a strong sense of ownership for the things they build.

Lead a team of talented engineers who like to ship code and tackle hard engineering problems
