Engineering Director

Join the team building an AI-first company. Hostinger serves more than 5.5 million clients across 150 countries, but we're still excited about what we're creating next. AI is changing how we build products, support customers, work together, and solve problems. It helps us move faster, spend less time on repetitive work, and focus on bigger ideas. If you want your work to influence both what we build and how we build it, we'd like to meet you. Our culture: Guided by 10 company principles https://www.hostinger.com/principles YOUR ROLE AT HOSTINGER As Engineering Director, you'll report directly to our VP of Engineering and work closely with our Head of Delivery, owning an important “Shared Services / Platform” area of our product department. You will be expected to raise the bar for how teams are run, and take direct ownership of teams and problems as they're handed to you. The “Shared Services / Platform” area consists of PHP (Laravel/Symfony) and Vue.js-heavy teams such as: Websites, Billing, Payments, Platform, and Internal Tools. The teams ensure we deliver shared capabilities once, enable and unblock our colleagues and commercial product teams to move faster. YOUR DAY-TO-DAY • Hire, coach, mentor, and grow Engineering Managers and Tech Leads, helping them raise their own ambitions rather than settle for "business as usual" • Take direct ownership of underperforming teams or unresolved problems - roll up your sleeves and fix them yourself when needed. • Champion a "you build it, you own it" culture: full accountability from writing code through production - observability, incident response, postmortems, and learning from failure. • Partner with stakeholders across the business - product, other engineering leaders, and cross-functional partners - to make sure the right problems get addressed, not just the loudest ones. • Bring clarity and structure to a fast-moving, sometimes ambiguous environment, without slowing it down. • Champion AI-assisted engineering across
