Full job description

Engineering Manager, Event Streaming Systems

Join us in our mission to transform the way people shop and eat, where impact, innovation and growth drive everything we do. Our Engineering teams tackle complex technical challenges across a global, three-sided marketplace, building and scaling systems that serve millions of customers, riders and partners every day.

From real-time logistics to resilient infrastructure and marketplace optimisation, we design, build and operate technology that powers Deliveroo’s growth at scale.

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to join our team in London. In this role, you’ll lead and grow a team of infrastructure engineers building and operating the event streaming systems that power business-critical workflows across Deliveroo, DoorDash and Wolt.

This role is based in our London office with a hybrid setup, typically 3 days in the office.

Get to know our Engineering team - what drives us, how we work, and what you can expect.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be joining the Event Streaming Systems team within the broader Storage organisation. The team builds and operates highly reliable, scalable and efficient streaming infrastructure, including Kafka, Event Streaming abstractions (internally called EventBus) and future event streaming platform technologies. These systems support Tier-0 workflows and are foundational to how engineering teams build reliable, event-driven products at scale.

Here’s what your day-to-day might look like:

Lead and grow a team of engineers responsible for Kafka, EventBus, and event streaming infrastructure.
Drive delivery of key streaming platform initiatives, balancing reliability, scalability, and long-term evolution.
Partner with infrastructure and engineering leaders across Deliveroo, DoorDash, and Wolt to define streaming strategy and roadmap.
Improve the scalability, observability, automation, and reliability of Tier-0 streaming systems.
Foster operational excellence through incident management, postmortems, and continuous improvement.
Hire, mentor, and develop engineers while building a high-performing, inclusive team.
Contribute to architecture, design reviews, and technical decision-making for large-scale distributed systems.

What You’ll Need to Thrive

Our ideal candidate will bring strong expertise in some of these areas and curiosity to grow in others:

Experience leading streaming infrastructure, platform or distributed systems engineering teams.
Experience with Kafka or large-scale event streaming systems.
Strong technical depth in scalable production systems, with a track record of operating high-reliability infrastructure.
Experience building or operating event streaming, storage, data infrastructure or similar large-scale distributed platforms.
Proven ability to hire, mentor and grow engineers, while creating clear expectations and a strong team culture.
Demonstrated ability to drive execution across complex, cross-functional technical initiatives with multiple stakeholders.
A strong operational excellence mindset, including incident leadership, observability, reliability engineering and continuous improvement.
Clear communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence technical and organisational direction across teams.

Nice to have

Experience with technologies such as Redpanda, Pulsar, WarpStream or AutoMQ.
Experience operating Tier-0 infrastructure, multi-region systems or globally distributed platforms.
Background in storage systems, platform infrastructure, data infrastructure or open source distributed systems.
