About the role
We're looking for a Technical Lead with 5+ years of software engineering experience who has reached Senior/Staff level (L5-L6) at a top tech company or held a technical leadership role at a VC-backed startup. You should be comfortable operating in ambiguous environments, driving cross-functional technical initiatives, and working hands-on across backend, frontend, mobile, AI, and data systems. Bonus points if you've built consumer-facing products, have experience with AI agents or recommendation systems, and bring startup experience where you've worn multiple hats.
Responsibilities
- Act as the technical partner to founders — translating ambiguous product goals into clear technical plans, milestones, and trade-offs across the full stack
- Drive technical execution across backend, frontend, mobile, AI, and data initiatives while staying hands-on (~50% IC work)
- Lead the development of internal agentic feature development workflows that enable AI-assisted product creation at scale
- Coordinate cross-domain engineering work, run daily standups, organize team capacity, and remove execution blockers
- Help define hiring needs, identify talent gaps, set technical evaluation standards, and scale the engineering team
- Raise the bar for engineering quality, speed, reliability, and maintainability across the organization
- Foster an AI-native engineering culture where engineers leverage AI tools to augment their workflows and decision-making
