Sr. Software Engineer - Tech Lead
About The Position
We are seeking a Software Engineering Tech Lead to provide technical leadership for a product-focused engineering team. This role is intentionally balanced between hands-on development and team leadership. Roughly half of your time will be spent partnering with Product and Design to shape requirements, design solutions, and unblock engineers. The remaining time will be dedicated to individual contribution, building and maintaining high-quality software alongside the team. This is a leadership role, not a people-management role. You will lead through technical excellence, clear communication, and ownership rather than through formal performance management.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or master's degree in computer science or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience building and maintaining production software systems.
- Familiarity with Angular, React, Java, AWS, Docker, ElasticSearch, PostgreSQL, REST, GitHub Actions
- Demonstrated experience leading technical initiatives or project-level efforts.
- Ability to lead technical discussions, make sound architectural decisions, and influence others without direct authority.
- Experience collaborating closely with Product and non-engineering stakeholders.
- Comfort balancing hands-on coding with leadership responsibilities.
- Experience using AI development tools across the SDLC, from design and implementation through testing and debugging.
- Strong communication skills and a bias toward ownership and execution.
Responsibilities
- Lead a software team by setting technical direction and modeling strong engineering practices.
- Partner closely with Product to derive clear, actionable requirements and translate them into well-scoped engineering work.
- Facilitate agile ceremonies and day-to-day execution to keep the team unblocked and focused.
- Design and implement complex full-stack features in support of the product roadmap.
- Review code and designs, providing constructive feedback to raise the bar for quality, maintainability, and scalability.
