Engineering Manager, Strategist Team
Working at Omnisend is... kind of boring.
Not the soul-crushing kind of boring — more like the “no drama, no chaos, just smart people doing great work” kind. The kind that lets you focus on what matters, without pointless meetings, micromanagement, or bureaucracy. We’re data-driven. We test, we iterate, we improve. Gut feelings don’t drive decisions — insights do. We trust each other. We’re transparent, give real feedback, and actually listen. No egos, no hand-holding — just a team of experienced professionals moving fast, adapting easily, and delivering impact. Omnisend is customer-funded and customer-driven. Our work is rooted in solving real problems that help ecommerce brands grow. No empty promises — we bring in results. And yes, we have fun. But the grown-up kind — workations, team gatherings, the occasional party. No forced fun, no awkward icebreakers. Just genuine moments with a team that actually enjoys working together.
At Omnisend, we're entering a new phase embedding AI deeply into our product to help thousands of ecommerce businesses grow smarter and faster. This is your chance to be part of that transformation and work on solutions that have real, measurable impact on our customers.
We're building a new generation of AI powered capabilities, including a recommendation engine that helps customers make better decisions and drive more revenue, as well as an insights engine that analyzes millions of data points and delivers meaningful, near real-time intelligence. These are not experimental side projects; they are becoming a core part of how our product works and how our customers succeed.
Our approach is pragmatic and future focused. We are LLM agnostic by design, actively working with tools like OpenAI, Gemini, and Claude, while staying open to new models as the ecosystem evolves. This allows us to choose the best tool for each problem and continuously push the boundaries of what we can build.
What truly defines our team is how we work. We move fast from idea to production, constantly experimenting, iterating, and shipping improvements without unnecessary bureaucracy. AI is not treated as an add-on feature, but as a fundamental part of the product experience we are shaping.
