At Nextlane, we don’t just develop software solutions – we create the future of the automotive industry.
We are a company that combines advanced technology with a clear vision: simplifying and digitizing every step of the automotive customer journey, empowering manufacturers and dealerships to thrive in a constantly evolving market.
So… What does it mean to be a #Nextlaner?
Be committed to provide an environment where you can learn, grow, and collaborate on projects that make a general impact.
Our success is measured not just by results, but also by the growth and satisfaction of those who are part of our company.
Nextlane builds the software that runs automotive retail across 14 countries, with more than 60 manufacturer integrations. Today that runs on around ten legacy dealer management systems, built over three decades in technologies that are now at the end of their life.
We are replacing them with a single cloud platform, and we are building it with AI at the centre: both in how our engineers work, and in what our customers get.



You will lead the engineering organisation that builds all of it: the cloud product portfolio, the single platform that replaces the legacy estate, and the AI products we sell to dealers and manufacturers.
The legacy estate keeps running while you build what replaces it, so you will be making hard sequencing calls about what gets migrated, what gets rewritten and what gets left alone, with real customers on the other side of every one of them.
Engineering strategy and delivery. Defining and executing the engineering strategy for the cloud product portfolio, aligned to the company strategy and the product vision, and owning delivery, scalability, reliability and operational excellence.
An engineering organisation of around 30 people, led through Engineering Managers, with Principal and Staff Engineers on the technical track. The engineering capability, evaluation discipline, reliability and unit cost model that let us ship customer-facing
