.Job Description Join us at Sixt Portugal as an Engineering Manager and immerse yourself in an exciting journey of tech innovation in the heart of Lisbon! You will be leading two projects in the revenue management area with focus on getting the most out of our fleet. Project 1: An ambitious project focused on optimizing fleet planning for the future. Aims to understand, predict, and plan the perfect fleet for the upcoming year by analyzing historical and forecasted demand alongside costs. The goal is to maximize margins, enhance utilization, and secure a leading position in the market ahead of our competition. Project 2: Another one, also critical but more on tactical and immediate decisions, seeks to manage the current fleet available for renting and take data-backed decisions - past and forecasted data - regarding fleet movements across branches. This ensures optimal margin transfers, infleet optimization to ensure the right cars are delivered to the right place, and defleet optimization to optimize decisions related to earlier/later defleets and respective cost aspects. These aren't just normal projects but rather massive cross-functional initiatives that bring together engineering, data science, business intelligence, and analytics, and that will for sure shape and revolutionize the future of SIXT as a leading mobility platform. Your expertise will be at the forefront of driving innovation, streamlining operations, and ultimately shaping the future success of Sixt. Get ready to collaborate with diverse teams and tackle challenges head-on as we pave the way for excellence. DO WHAT YOU LOVE: You will lead and grow a team of smart engineers on a mission of constant development, enabling them to meet their personal and organizational goals. You evangelize modern engineering practices and empower engineers to make technical decisions: engineering manager != tech lead. You embody servant leadership, prioritizing serving and empowering your team rather than exerting control. You champion autonomous teams, guiding them through decision-making processes. With innate people skills, you adeptly coach, mentor, and inspire others to elevate their abilities. You possess a product mindset, collaborating closely with the product owner to shape the product vision, while also demonstrating an understanding of and proficiency in managing the delicate balance between time to market and accumulating technical debt. You understand that it is all about execution and delivery of value, even when roadmaps and priorities change often. You do not limit yourself by boundaries between IT and other departments. Qualifications COME AS YOU ARE: You have proven experience in managing and leading engineering teams to success. You have a strong technical background that you have applied numerous times in different complex projects
