Lead Software Engineer

Lead a team. Keep coding. Shape the product.

What you’ll do

• Lead and grow a team of 3-6 software engineers: run 1:1s and feedback sessions, and support each person’s professional and personal development
• Build your own team: run technical interviews, make the hiring decisions and onboard new engineers so they settle in quickly
• Be the go-to technical partner: review code, pair program and help the team work through tough problems
• Shape the architecture of the platform and help decide how it grows
• Build new features across the backend and the frontend

What you’ll bring

• 6+ years as a software engineer, ideally including time at Staff level
• In-depth knowledge of full-stack Ruby on Rails
• Strong knowledge of relational databases (ideally PostgreSQL), MVC frameworks and TDD
• Some leadership experience.
• Strong communication skills and fluent English (C1+)
• A Bachelor-level way of working and thinking
