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.
Ideal Candidate
- Strong Tech Lead / Staff Engineer / Lead Engineer Profile
- Proven experience operating at Tech Lead, Staff Engineer, or Lead Engineer level.
- Mandatory – Overall Experience
- Minimum 6+ years of overall Software Engineering / Development experience building production backend systems.
- Mandatory – Tech Lead Ownership

- Experience designing and building APIs, backend services, and external/enterprise integrations.
- Strong experience owning complex business logic and production systems.
- Mandatory – Technical Leadership
- Formal technical leadership experience, including mentoring Senior Engineers, conducting design and code reviews, driving engineering quality, and leading technical decisions across a team.
- Mandatory – Hands-on IC + Tech Lead
- Must be a hands-on Individual Contributor + Tech Lead, with approximately 70–80% hands-on coding/engineering involvement.
- Pure people-management profiles are not suitable.

What this role is
You are an engineer who leads projects at the scope of a service or major subsystem.
That means: when a problem lands on your desk, it's usually ambiguous. Your job is to turn it into a clear problem statement, design a system to solve it, ship it through to production, and own how it behaves once it's there. You'll work with one or two engineers on most projects, and you'll be the technical person product, ops, and other engineering teams talk to about that domain.
You're not a senior individual contributor who only writes code for assigned tickets. You're not a tech lead who's stopped writing code. You're the person between those two — still hands-on, but increasingly the one shaping what gets built.
What you'll do
- Solve 2–4 complex problems a year end-to-end: shape the problem, design the system, ship it, monitor it.
- Design single-service systems independently. Define API contracts, data models, scale and reliability requirements. Document and review your design with peers before building.
- Turn ambiguity into clarity. Take half-formed product tasks and partner with PMs to define what's actually being built. Push back when the ask doesn't make sense.
- Stay hands-on. Write code that goes into production. Drive code reviews. Debug across service boundaries. Refactor when the codebase needs it.
- Mentor 1–2 junior engineers. Be someone's first reviewer. Pair when it helps. Take their growth as your responsibility, not a side activity.
- Be in hiring. Interview candidates regularly. Help shape the interview bar for your function.
- Own outcomes, not output. Track the business or operational metric your work moves. If it doesn't move, that's a problem you own — not a problem you delivered to.
What we're looking for
- Over 4 years of professional experience in software development, specifically focused on solving large-scale technical challenges.
- Expert-level proficiency in at least one major programming language (such as Java, GO, Rust, NodeJS etc) with a focus on writing scalable, maintainable, and unit-tested code.
- Strong command of object-oriented design, design patterns, and the creation of intuitive class-level interfaces.
- Hands-on experience with multi-threading, concurrency, and Test-Driven Development (TDD).
- Deep understanding of relational databases (Postgres) and various NoSQL technologies like HBase, Elasticsearch, or Aerospike, Cassandra
- Comprehensive knowledge of the full software development life cycle on Linux platforms.
- Proven ability to build highly scalable applications that manage complex business logic and massive datasets.
- A proactive, "go-getter" mindset characterized by high energy and dedication to task ownership.
- Experience thriving in fast-paced startup environments with a strong sense of commitment and accountability.
- A passionate drive to tackle complex, real-world problems through innovative engineering.
- You've made and defended technical decisions, picked up problems no one assigned, or built things people use that no one asked for.
- Strong fundamentals in your primary stack — concurrency, data modeling, debugging across systems, performance work. We're stack-agnostic for the right person.
- Experience designing systems with explicit attention to scale, reliability, and cost — not just functional correctness.
- Collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders to monitor project outcomes and iteratively refine features based on real-world impact.
