Team Tech Lead
Job Description
Are you a brilliant engineer who loves solving complex problems, writing elegant code, and building AI-native products, but isn't looking to become a full-time people manager just yet?
We are looking for a Team Tech Lead to serve as the technical anchor for our engineering team. In this role, you will own the delivery of high-impact AI components and mentor talented engineers, while maintaining a direct path to a Staff Engineer role. This is an elite IC-track position designed for someone who wants to wield massive technical influence, elevate team standards, and build the future of AI-native software.
What You’ll Own (Role Boundaries)
Your Direct Ownership:
Execution & Quality: You own the delivery, performance, and code quality of our most complex features and core AI components.
Technical Mentorship: You will actively mentor and grow engineers within the team, raising the collective technical bar.
What You’ll Collaborate On:
Shaping team architecture decisions and defining engineering standards.
Partnering with leadership on hiring and interview loops.
Driving cross-team alignment on shared technical initiatives.
What You Won’t Have to Worry About:
Direct people management (no 1-on-1s, performance reviews, or HR overhead).
Setting team-level OKRs or defining the broader company engineering strategy.
Requirements
What We’re Looking For
AI-Native Expertise: A proven track record of designing, implementing, and shipping complex, high-impact AI-native technical work.
Technical Authority: You are recognized by your peers as a go-to technical expert and a dependable anchor during complex system designs or major outages.
Team Multiplier: You don't just write great code; you possess a track record of actively growing the engineers around you and ruthlessly improving team practices (e.g., CI/CD, code reviews, documentation).
Pragmatic Execution: You know when to build for the long term and when to ship quickly to gather user feedback.
