Make Your Mark as an Engineering Manager at Storio group

About the role:

We are looking for a Data Engineering Manager to join our London-based data team and help us (re-)build a platform that accelerates a decentralised-by-design data adoption model within the business.

We care about providing trustable, usable data that meets business needs. We want you to create and lead a high-performing team that delivers on this mission. If you're a software engineering manager with experience in the data world, we want to hear from you.

We have a growing data and AI team in the UK and Netherlands. We function as the backbone for a variety of data-hungry consumers and platforms across the business within Marketing, Finance, Operations and Product teams.

Our AI photo services are at the heart of our consumer experience and we’re expanding our footprint towards decentralised ML adoption within the business.
