About this role:
As a Lead Engineer, you’ll work closely with ownership and a product manager to deliver long-term product builds. You’l lead the team of remote engineers, lead scrums, review code, coach and perhaps write a little code.
While we have historically been a Laravel/Vue shop, we do have some Node/React in the works.
The great news: we have a really solid core team of developers who work a team. We have daily standups, we use Slack and Zoom a lot. We meet and work together a lot and we really enjoy it. We do have insight into upcoming work and can schedule it, but deadlines do matter to our project managers and our clients.
This role would be GREAT for an up-and-coming team lead. Never lead a team before but are ready to make the leap? We’re very open to helping you become that leader.
Our team is very interactive, meets on Zoom and chats on Slack. You will need to be conversational in English as our US-based team speaks English only. The rest of the team, however is fluent in Spanish and English. So, that does provide some flexibility for you.
