Job description
We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Technical Lead to own the architecture, engineering standards, and technical direction of a product team. In this role, you will actively design, code, review, debug, and solve complex technical problems while guiding the team to make sound decisions and grow their capabilities. You will be responsible for driving the full product lifecycle—from problem definition with Product and Business stakeholders through implementation, testing, deployment, and operations—working in close partnership while enabling the team to operate with autonomy. This role requires balancing hands-on contribution with leadership by setting clear technical direction, ensuring architectural consistency, and helping engineers make pragmatic trade-offs without becoming a bottleneck. You will also foster a culture of ownership, continuous learning, and improvement, raising the overall engineering quality while maintaining strong delivery velocity.
