Who We’re Looking For

We're seeking a hands-on Technical Team Lead to lead our engineering team through technical excellence, mentorship, and direct contribution. This is a coding-first leadership role where you'll spend the majority of your time building, architecting, and solving complex technical challenges alongside the team, while guiding technical decisions, mentoring engineers, and ensuring high-quality delivery.

You'll quickly become a trusted technical leader by:
