Lead Software Engineer / Tech Lead

We're building the kind of platform we always wanted to use : fast, flexible, and built for making sense of real-world complexity. Behind the scenes is a robust, event-driven architecture that connects systems, abstracts messy workflows, and leaves room for smart automation. The surface is clean and simple. The interactions are seamless and intuitive. The machinery underneath is anything but. That’s where you come in.

We’re a well-networked founding team with strong execution roots and a clear roadmap. We’re backed, focused, and delivering fast.

We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join early. Someone who thrives in fast-moving teams, values clarity and execution, and can help drive delivery while staying hands-on. You’ll be the glue that holds the team together — bridging frontend, backend, infra, and vendor pods — while still writing code every day.

💥 What You’ll Do

• Own the overall architecture for our core platform and integrations
• Drive key technical decisions across FE / BE / API / data / infrastructure
• Write production code in Python + React (and push for quality)
• Guide a team of senior engineers to milestone delivery — by unblocking and mentoring
• Establish best practices for modularity, observability, testing, and release
• Be the link between engineering, product, and delivery partners
• Work directly with the CTO and founders to shape the roadmap
• Python (async-first, service-oriented)
• React + Next.js (FE)
• Terraform + GCP (infra-as-code)
• Databricks, Postgres, and message queues
• MCP + LLM orchestration

We’re pragmatic — the stack will evolve, and you’ll help steer it.

chaos : fixed cycles & cooldowns protect focus and keep context switching low
