About the role
At Lago, we're on a mission to make billing simpler, more transparent, and more adaptable for SaaS companies.
As the leading open-source billing platform, we empower businesses to build flexible pricing models and scale with confidence. We've raised over $22 million in funding from top-tier investors including Y Combinator and FirstMark , reflecting strong confidence in our vision and growth.
Our platform has garnered over 9,000 stars on GitHub , a testament to our active and growing developer community. Companies such as PayPal , CoreWeave , Synthesia and Mistral.ai choose Lago for their billing.
We're a team of ambitious, focused individuals who work together to solve hard problems with excellence and accountability. At Lago, we value reliability and proactivity —we trust each other to own tasks, drive them to completion, and adapt quickly. While we encourage you to try fast and "fail fast" , we also expect you to learn fast : make mistakes, but don't make the same one twice.
If you're excited by challenges and want to grow alongside a high-performing, supportive team, this is the place for you.
Overview
We're hiring an Engineering Squad Lead to take full ownership of one of the focused domains here at Lago: shipping features, keeping production healthy, and coordinating the team around you.
This is a role that blends hands-on technical contribution with operational leadership. You'll stay close to the code while also being the person who keeps the squad moving: scoping work with Product, unblocking engineers, owning production incidents, and making sure the team is building with quality and velocity.
You won't be handed a fully-formed system to maintain. Lago is a fast-moving product in a complex domain, billing infrastructure where precision and reliability genuinely matter. You'll need to make sound architectural decisions quickly, communicate trade-offs clearly, and hold a high bar without slowing the team down.
