Job Description

Posted on: May 2, 2026

Role: Technical Lead

Location: Remote

Employment Type: Full-time

Compensation: Competitive salary commensurate with experience, qualifications, and location. Indicative range: $140,000 – $210,000 (USD equivalent), plus benefits.

Role Overview

We are hiring a Technical Lead to drive technical direction across a team without taking on full management responsibility. The role combines hands-on engineering with cross-team coordination — setting the bar for code quality and unblocking the team.

Key Responsibilities

- Drive technical direction and architectural decisions for the team

- Write code on the most critical or complex parts of the system

- Lead design reviews and mentor engineers

- Partner with product on technical scoping and trade-offs

- Own technical health of the team's surface area (testing, performance, debt)

- Coordinate cross-team technical initiatives

Required Skills and Qualifications

- 6+ years in software engineering at increasing levels of seniority

- Deep technical expertise in your team's tech stack

- Track record of leading complex technical projects to completion

- Excellent written communication, including design docs and technical strategy

- Experience mentoring engineers and conducting design reviews

- Strong system design fundamentals

What You'll Bring

- Curiosity to dig into systems and turn findings into shipped improvements

- Strong written communication and ability to explain technical decisions

- A test-and-learn mindset; you ship fast, measure, and iterate

- Comfort working asynchronously across time zones

What We Offer

- Fully remote, flexible work hours

- Performance-based bonus structure

- Annual learning & development stipend

- Health and wellness benefits (varies by location)

- Opportunity to work on high-scale, real-world impact projects

Equal Opportunity Statement

This is an equal opportunity role. Applications are welcomed from all qualified individuals regardless of race, color, ethnicity, nationality, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, religion, disability, marital status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law. All hiring decisions are based solely on qualifications, skills, and demonstrated ability.
