We are looking for an entrepreneurial Engineering Team Lead to spearhead the development of a brand-new product line within our company.
This is a unique "0 to 1" opportunity: you will design the architecture from the ground up, recruit your own team of talented engineers, and define the engineering culture for this new unit. You will join a company backed by top-notch investors and industry leaders, with a product already live in over 15 countries and high scale-but you will operate with the agility and ownership of a founder.
What You'll Do
Build & Lead the Team:
Recruit & Grow: Hire, onboard, and mentor a new team of highly talented engineers from scratch.
Culture: Foster a culture of technical excellence, open collaboration, and rapid iteration.
Standards: Conduct code reviews and set the standard for code quality, maintainability, and testing.
Architecture & Development (Hands-on):
0 to 1 Design: Lead the design and implementation of a complex data processing system from scratch, analyzing visual data and integrating with our existing platforms.
Hands-on Coding: Remain hands-on (approx. 50-60% coding initially), developing core features mainly in Python while laying the architectural foundations.
Scale & Strategy: Make key technology choices that will impact the product's long-term scalability and performance.
Product Delivery:
Impact: Tackle complex real-world problems that directly affect the companys success.
Collaboration: Work closely with Product Managers and software teams to translate complex business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
Delivery: Drive the delivery timeline, balancing speed-to-market with robust engineering practices.

Requirements:
The Experience: 8+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 3 years in a leadership role (Team Lead or Tech Lead).
The Tech Stack: Deep expertise in Python (OOP, heavy data processing, or backend systems). You know how to write clean, high-performance code at scale.
Infrastructure: Strong experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and Cloud environments (AWS/GCP).
Data Engineering: Proven experience working with relational databases and data engineering pipelines.
The "Builder" Mindset: You have experience taking a product from concept to production. You are not just maintaining legacy systems; you love the chaos and creativity of building something new.
Soft Skills: You are a natural collaborator and communicator. You know how to explain complex technical risks to non-technical stakeholders.
Education: B.Sc. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.
Advantage (Nice to have):
Experience with Orchestration tools (Airflow, Dagster, etc.).
Previous experience in a startup environment.
