Technical Lead – Fullstack

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Take ownership and advance the technical vision of the consumer platform, establishing a long-term architectural strategy while making practical, everyday technical choices.

• Make impactful architectural decisions within a contemporary TypeScript environment, balancing speed, scalability, product quality, and sustainable maintenance.

• Act as the technical "north star" for the team by conducting design reviews, code reviews, and providing in-depth technical guidance.

• Remain actively involved in the codebase, contributing to intricate features, troubleshooting production challenges, and leading system design efforts from start to finish.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Engineering leaders to shape project roadmaps, question assumptions, and convert vague problems into clear technical paths.

• Elevate engineering quality standards across performance, reliability, testing strategies, observability, and developer experience.

• Provide mentorship to engineers by exemplifying sound engineering judgment.

• Establish and implement AI-assisted engineering workflows that significantly boost team velocity (beyond just individual productivity), utilizing tools such as Cursor, Codex, Claude, and others.

• Engage in hiring and interviewing to help uphold a high technical standard within the organization.

• Work in collaboration with engineering teams to influence shared systems, infrastructure, and overarching platform decisions.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 8 years of software engineering experience with extensive knowledge in modern full-stack web development.

• Proven experience in owning or significantly impacting the architecture for large-scale consumer-facing web products.

• Strong proficiency in TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Next.js, favoring the development of maintainable systems over short-term solutions.

• Experience in building and scaling modern full-stack applications using GraphQL, Apollo, and AWS, with strong knowledge in both relational and NoSQL databases, including Postgres and DynamoDB.

• Demonstrated capability to function as a technical leader.

• Exceptional engineering judgment — capable of making sound decisions in uncertain situations with incomplete data.

• Strong hands-on coding skills with a readiness to stay involved in implementation.

• Experience in scaling systems while managing constraints related to performance, reliability, and product velocity trade-offs.

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence across engineering, product, and design disciplines.

• Profound, practical knowledge of AI-assisted development — focusing on real workflow integration that enhances how teams deliver software, rather than mere experimentation.

• A preference for systems thinking, simplicity, and long-term maintainability over local optimization.

🏝️ Benefits

• Remote-first work environment.

• Competitive salary and equity options.

• Flexible PTO policy.

• 401(k) plan.

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.

• 16 weeks of paid parental leave for both primary and secondary caregivers.
