Why choose Eneco?

What you’ll do

As an Engineering Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our Asset Steering platforms. You’ll lead a cross-functional product team focused on Asset Connectivity, working on Mission Critical solutions. You’ll own the technical landscape, work closely with architects, and actively contribute to development (20% hands-on). Your role is not hands-off — you’ll work alongside engineers to build scalable, Mission Critical platforms that deliver results.

You’ll collaborate closely with Product Managers to translate roadmap goals into robust technical execution. You'll also be responsible for growing and mentoring a team of 10 engineers, fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Is this about you?

You’re an experienced technical leader who thrives in a fast-paced product environment. On a daily basis, you enjoy working with cross-functional teams to bring bold ideas to life. For this role, it's important to have strong hands-on experience with OT and cloud environments, and you are comfortable jumping into tech (hands-on) when needed. Your goal is to bring structure and strategy to Mission Critical platforms.

• A degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Experience in mentoring engineers and growing high-performing teams.
• At least 7 years of experience in Operational Technology, with over 2 years in engineering leadership roles.
• Proven track record in delivering complex OT products in Mission Critical environments.
• Experience with OT stacks (SCADA, RTU, etc.), Cloud (IaaS, PaaS), and engineering practices (CI/CD, etc.).
• Excellent communication skills; you're equally comfortable discussing architecture with developers and trade-offs with product leaders.
• A strategic mindset with the ability to connect tech execution to business value.

You’ll be responsible for

• Leading an agile engineering team (10 FTE) working on connecting and steering wind (off- and onshore), solar, batteries, heat, and gas-powered assets.
• Driving technical excellence across OT and Cloud platforms.
• Bridging Mission Critical IT with OT.
• Shaping the technical roadmap, ensuring architectural integrity, scalability, and security of our digital products.
• Working closely with Product Managers to assess feasibility, suggest technical trade-offs, and align delivery to business priorities.
• Facilitating effective team rituals (stand-ups, reviews, retros) to ensure strong delivery and team health.
• Recruiting, mentoring, and coaching engineers across specialisms.
• Encouraging a strong engineering culture built on best practices, experimentation, and high code quality.
• Setting technical direction while balancing immediate needs with long-term vision.
