Software Engineer / Tech Lead
About the role
About The Role
We're looking for a web developer who can wear multiple hats. This isn't a heads-down coding-only role. You'll build features, but also lead the technical direction of projects, communicate directly with clients, and make architecture decisions.
Some weeks are heavy coding, other weeks are more about planning, client calls, and guiding the project forward. What matters most is that you can own a project, communicate clearly, and deliver.
What You'll Do
Build and ship product features across web projects
Lead the technical direction and architecture of client projects
Communicate directly with clients — calls, planning, status updates
Make pragmatic architecture decisions that balance quality and speed
Guide and review work when collaborating with other engineers
Help scope projects and break down technical requirements
What We're Looking For
Strong fundamentals in at least one of: JavaScript, C#, or Python
Experience with React, Node.js, or modern frameworks is a plus — but not required
Comfortable owning a project end-to-end, not just executing tasks
Clear communicator who can explain technical things to non-technical people
Self-directed and reliable — you don't need hand-holding to get things done
Nice to Have
Prior experience in a tech lead or senior IC role
Experience working directly with clients or in an agency environment
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
What We Offer
Fully remote — work from anywhere
High-ownership role with real decision-making power
Fast-moving team without layers of bureaucracy
Annual learning budget for courses, books, and conferences
Competitive compensation based on experience
