We’re a leading online reviews platform, free and open to all. Our mission is to be a universal symbol of trust. We are well on our way — but there’s still an exciting journey ahead of us. Do you want to join us at the heart of trust?

We are seeking Engineering Managers who have experience building great products and applications at scale, using the right technologies while focusing on delivering value for our users. We are looking for someone with at least a few years of experience developing software engineers and who knows how to grow them and make teams successful.

Trustpilot's API Platform Team will play a crucial role in enabling our customers, partners and internal teams to unlock the value of our APIs and drive new revenue streams. The roadmap includes monetising & sharing our datasets and enabling syndication of reviews. Trustpilot API's are used in several different ways:

• By customers - for example to display Trustpilot Widgets on their website and extract data for analysis in-house
• By Integrations with other SaaS tools (such as Shopify) - some built internally and others by external partners

At Trustpilot, we work as a team and deliver as a team. The environment that we cultivate includes working with great people who aid each other at every step, while at the same time encouraging you to bring your A-game every day. Everyone’s opinion matters and you can help come up with the next big idea that will bring Trustpilot forward. Join our team and shape the way we work. Are you up for the challenge?
