Tech Lead – Backend

Roles & Responsibilities

The company is building the operational backbone for how B2B enterprises run their business.

As a Tech Lead on the backend team, you will own the technical direction for a core domain of the platform—systems where correctness is non-negotiable, scale is unforgiving, and edge cases never stop coming. You will also mentor Senior Engineers in your pod.

This is a hands-on role: you will write code and design systems yourself day to day, pair on complex problems, review the work of engineers around you, and be the person who figures out what's actually broken before it becomes a fire.

You will report into the Engineering Manager / Head of Engineering. This is not a feature-factory role. You are here to raise the level of abstraction the team works at, not simply to ship tickets faster.

What You'll Own

• Design and build core platform services that handle complex business logic reliably at scale.
• Architect and own integrations with external enterprise systems, including their quirks, rate limits, and failure modes.
• Build APIs that enterprise engineering teams actually want to integrate with, not just ones that technically work.
• Own production debugging end to end: diagnose issues across services using logs, traces, and metrics, and make incidents boring rather than fires.
• Embed security and compliance thinking into your systems by default, not as a retrofit.
• Mentor Senior Backend Engineers in your pod: pair on hard problems, review their work, and help them grow as engineers.
• Set the architectural direction for your domain: choose frameworks, patterns, and abstractions that shape the platform for years.
• Lead design reviews and code reviews, and set the technical standard the rest of the team calibrates against.
• Hold a clear bar for quality, follow-through, and ownership across the engineers you work with, ensuring systems are healthy in production, not just merged.
• Partner with Product, Implementation, and Customer Success as the engineer who understands the system deeply enough to challenge requirements when necessary.
• Raise the technical bar for the engineers around you without slowing the team down.
•
