Engineering Lead - User Experience Team (m/f/d)

Join to apply for the Engineering Lead - User Experience Team (m/f/d) role at Raisin

Team

The User Experience Team at Raisin is a dynamic cross-functional unit shaping the design and experience of core web platforms across markets. As a key contributor in this team, you’ll take ownership of foundational domains such as our Design System, Web UI Library, and Public Website, ensuring consistent, accessible, and scalable user experiences. You’ll also help drive the evolution of our Headless CMS and champion web accessibility standards across all touchpoints.

Beyond technical excellence, you’ll play a central role in people development — mentoring peers, fostering a collaborative engineering culture, and supporting individual growth. We value team health as much as platform quality, and your leadership will be instrumental in both. If you’re passionate about building inclusive web experiences and empowering those around you, the User Experience Team at Raisin offers the ideal space for impactful leadership.

Your Responsibilities

• You are responsible for the full E2E delivery cycle: from requirements analysis, effort estimation, through design, implementation, QA, and delivery.
• You nurture an inspiring environment with open communication and a culture of trust.
• You proactively resolve impediments and mitigate risks for your team.
• In case you need to escalate delivery and team risks, you do this in a timely fashion, with a well-articulated solution/mitigation plan.
• You collaborate closely with your team’s Product Manager and Tech Lead.
• You facilitate the team’s work on strategy and planning for the delivery.
• Together with the Product Manager, you drive the OKR process for your team: communication of objectives, KR definition, team commitment, and pairing OKRs with individual target agreements for your engineers.
• You recruit, hire, and onboard engineers into the team.
• You develop both your engineers’ soft- and technical skill-sets according to the company’s goals and needs.
• You craft agreements and individual development plans with every team member, aligned to the team’s goals.
• You uncover training opportunities as well as provide coaching for your team.
• You recognize high performance and reward accomplishments.
• You establish and keep strong performance standards for your direct reports

Your Profile

• You have a university degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems or related fields or equivalent practical experience.
• You bring at least 1 year of leadership/people management experience.
• You have strong hands-on experience (min. 5 years) as Frontend Engineer. Familiarity with PHP, Python, or React Native is considered a strong plus.
• You know how to manage software projects to a successful delivery in a collaborative fashion.
• You have up-to-date, in-depth knowledge of the software development lifecycle in a frontend-technology landscape.
• You are comfortable with open code and architecture discussions.
• Fluency in English; German-language skills are a plus but not mandatory.
