AeroCloud: Revolutionizing Airport Operations
AeroCloud is the new-age operating system for airports aiming to grow. Our suite includes Airport Operating Systems (AOS), PPS, and Passenger Flow Management solutions, empowering airports to gain deep insights into the movement of passengers and aircraft around the world.
We achieve this by becoming the airport’s first call for technology. Whether in times of need or growth, we stand alongside our clients, offering support through innovative software that drives their success.
Our Commitment to Excellence
At AeroCloud, being the airport’s first call means exceeding expectations at every customer interaction. This is not just a goal; it’s our standard. We prioritize detail, diligence, and a proactive approach in everything we do. If there’s a task to be completed, we see it through. If a customer needs an answer we don’t yet have, we respond promptly to let them know we’re on it. We believe in keeping our team informed, being transparent, and maintaining accountability at every step.
About The Role
This is a new role for us. Until now, every engineer has reported to the Head of Engineering. As the team grows, that no longer gives people the attention they deserve. You'll line-manage a group of our engineers, across software, machine learning and other disciplines, and report to the Head of Engineering.
The role is about people. You'll coach and mentor engineers, help them grow, hire well, and make sure everyone knows where they stand. Teams own their delivery and our Product Engineers set technical direction, so your time goes on the people rather than the code.
How we measure performance matters to us. We don't track hours in Jira, and we don't count lines of code. We care about the value teams deliver. You'll design that framework with the Head of Engineering and run it.
Responsibilities
Our Tech Stack
You won't be writing code yourself, but you'll want to understand the work well enough to be credible with the people doing it. Our systems are increasingly event-driven and serverless: AWS Lambda, events and S3, built and deployed with SST. React for frontends, and some older services on more traditional JavaScript and TypeScript. Some products run as SaaS, others on site at airports or on edge devices. Teams measure delivery with DORA metrics.
What We Value
Honest, early conversations over comfortable ones. We'd rather you raise a problem with an engineer while it's small than manage around it until it's large. Value delivered over activity. You'll have real scope to shape how engineering management works here.
What We Offer
Our Ethos
AeroCloud recognises Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion at the heart of our business. They represent the mutual trust, respect and understanding we strive for. They are integral to our brand, reputation, success, business sustainability and employee relations impact.
Our vision is to have a diverse, equal and inclusive organisational culture. We want everyone who comes into contact with us, both face to face and virtually, to feel valued and respected. We want our workplace both in the office and at home to foster belonging to all colleagues to feel seen, connected, supported and proud. We will draw on the rich diversity of our workforce and harness the diverse contributions and considerable talents of our staff to achieve our vision in line with our organisational values and DE&I principles.
AeroCloud is an equal opportunities employer so if you have any specific work or access requirements as a result of a condition or disability then AeroCloud would be committed to working with you on the best way to support this at work.

Responsibilities
- Running regular 1-1s with every engineer who reports to you: development conversations with documented goals, so everyone knows where they stand
- Coaching and mentoring engineers on their growth, working practices and careers
- Setting and running the progression framework, and making promotion cases that are documented and defensible
- Designing a performance framework with the Head of Engineering that measures value delivered, and assessing every engineer against it
- Raising underperformance early, directly and on record, and running formal processes with HR when it comes to that
- Setting probation targets for new engineers and deciding the outcomes
- Running hiring for your engineers end to end, to a consistent standard
- Building an onboarding programme, with a 90-day check-in for every new engineer
- Watching morale and how people work together, and acting on flight risks before they become resignations
- Working with the teams to standardise how they measure DORA metrics, since each team has built its own
