Description

  • Lead a small squad of about 3 engineers and own its mission, delivery cadence, and outcomes.
  • Translate high-level goals into a practical delivery plan, including scope, sequencing, trade-offs, and risks.
  • Drive predictable execution through planning, weekly goals, retrospectives, clear tickets, small PRs, and fast reviews.
  • Make and communicate pragmatic architectural decisions and document long-term choices in ADRs when needed.
  • Set standards for code quality, testing, observability, performance, and technical debt management.
  • Build and maintain Laravel-based services, web applications, and supporting tooling.
  • Ship secure, testable, performance-aware code and help keep production stable.
  • Collaborate closely with Product and Design to shape solutions early in the process.
  • Coordinate with Security Research and Ops/Infra on reliability, scaling, deployments, and domain-specific work.
  • Coach engineers through pairing, code reviews, feedback, hiring, and onboarding support.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience.
  • At least 2 years of experience leading or owning delivery for a small team.
  • Strong backend or full-stack experience with Laravel/PHP.

  • Track record of shipping in short cycles with strong quality practices.
  • Comfort and curiosity with AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor, Copilot, or Claude.
  • Excellent written communication for documentation, specs, and asynchronous stakeholder alignment.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to define the path without perfect specs.

  • Experience in a small, scaling company is a plus.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary plus meaningful ESOP.
  • Remote-first work from anywhere with reasonable overlap with EU time zones.
  • Company-provided laptop.
  • High autonomy with ownership of the mission, not just tickets.
