We're looking for an experienced Engineering Team Lead to lead a team of 4-5 engineers responsible for critical customer-facing web experiences used at significant scale.
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can stay close to the technology while improving how the team makes decisions, solves complex problems and delivers.
What you'll do
You'll be responsible for:
- Leading, coaching and developing a team of 4-5 engineers
- Owning technical direction across a high-traffic web platform
- Improving Core Web Vitals, SEO, latency and overall web performance
- Driving better engineering velocity and removing technical blockers
- Leading architecture and system design discussions
- Improving technical standards, code quality and engineering practices
- Managing technical debt and cross-team dependencies
- Partnering closely with Product and Design
- Helping the team make pragmatic technical trade-offs
- Communicating technical risks, options and recommendations to senior stakeholders
You'll remain technically involved where it matters, including architecture, solution design,
code reviews and complex engineering decisions, without becoming the person every decision depends on.
What we're looking for
You'll likely come from a background as an Engineering Team Lead, Technical Lead, Lead Software Engineer or hands-on Engineering Manager.
You should have strong experience across:
- React.js
- Next.js
- Server-Side Rendering
- Core Web Vitals
- Web performance and scalability
- High-traffic customer-facing platforms
- System design and architecture
- APIs and distributed services
- Cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or GCP
- Direct people leadership
- Product and stakeholder management
Experience with GraphQL, micro-frontends, modern application security and AI coding tools would also be valuable.
Location
Sydney-based hybrid working workplace.
If you're a technically strong engineering leader who enjoys improving systems, teams and decision-making, we'd love to hear from you.
