About the Role

We are looking for a Full Stack Technical Lead to resolve production issues on a live, high-traffic hiring product. You will pair deep technical ownership across Java, Python, and React with the ability to lead and mentor engineers through ambiguity. This role blends hands-on engineering with real client impact, keeping complex systems reliable under pressure.

What you will do

- Analyze and resolve production issues, with particular emphasis on ongoing, in-progress hiring events.
- Partner closely with client-facing teams to triage and address incoming support tickets.
- Drive timely issue resolution to meet established SLAs.
- Monitor production systems and respond quickly to alerts or performance degradation ("going red").
- Support architecture changes and system integrations that may impact hiring events.
- Maintain and update event logic in response to changes in dependencies and upstream systems.

Must haves

- 7+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Java/Spring Boot as the primary backend stack (Event Management Backend, Lobby Backend) — first priority.
- Django/Python as a secondary backend stack (Event Management Backend, Lobby Backend) — second priority.
- React for frontend development (Event Management Frontend, Lobby Frontend, IRL Frontend, Jobseeker Frontend).
- Kafka (Event Management Backend).
- GraphQL (Event Management Backend, Lobby Backend).
- SQL or MongoDB (Event Management Backend, Lobby Backend).
- Build and deployment experience.
- Experience with at least one of the following: Dagster, Data Lakes, or Amazon Athena.
- Senior-level engineer able to ramp up quickly and assume ownership across multiple concurrent projects.




- High level of ownership and autonomy, including taking initiative and owning tasks—specifically merging and deploying code—without requiring hand-holding.
- Ability to work independently and autonomously.
- Technical leadership experience, including the ability to lead, shepherd, and onboard other engineers on the team's behalf (senior engineering experience alone is not sufficient for this Tech Lead role).
- Demonstrated experience overseeing or coordinating the work of others.
- Clear and concise communication.
- Ability to manage and navigate ambiguity.
- Prioritization and strategic thinking.
- Ability to use data to troubleshoot production issues.
- Upper-intermediate English level.
