  • Job Zusammenfassung

    In dieser Rolle bearbeitest du komplexe technische Programme zu Checkout & Payments, koordinierst cross-funktionale Teams und optimierst Lieferprozesse für hochgradig skalierbare, sichere Transaktionen.

    Deine Rolle im Team

    • You will own and drive complex, cross-functional technical programs at the core of Shopware's commercial transaction flow. This role operates at program level, spanning multiple teams, product areas, and external partners.
    • You act as the single point of orchestration for Checkout & Payments initiatives across units aligning product strategy, engineering execution, QA, platform capabilities, and third-party providers to ensure predictable, high-quality delivery in a revenue-critical domain.
    • You take end-to-end ownership of technical programs across checkout, orders, payments, shipping, tax, and related commercial capabilities, with accountability for delivery outcomes, risk management, and execution quality.
    • You translate strategic business and product objectives into structured execution plans, clear milestones, and delivery timelines, ensuring alignment across teams with competing priorities and dependencies.
    • You proactively identify, manage, and resolve cross-team and cross-domain dependencies, technical risks, and delivery bottlenecks before they impact customers, partners, or revenue.
    • You facilitate and lead program-level alignment forums, planning sessions, and retrospectives, enabling informed decision-making, clear trade-offs, and shared ownership across senior stakeholders.
    • You coordinate initiatives involving internal teams and external providers (e.g. payment service providers, logistics partners, compliance stakeholders), ensuring seamless collaboration and clear accountability boundaries.
    • You ensure that delivery consistently meets requirements for scalability, performance, security, compliance, and long-term maintainability, particularly in areas that directly affect conversion, trust, and financial transactions.
    • You establish and continuously evolve repeatable delivery frameworks, reporting structures, and lean coordination practices that scale with organizational complexity and changing priorities.
    • You provide transparent, concise program-level reporting to engineering and product leadership, surfacing risks, progress, and decisions in a way that supports timely action.
