What you’ll be doing:

  • Coach, mentor, guide, and motivate a team of hard working engineers from all backgrounds. This includes all aspects of people management including hiring and training team members, and using tools like great 1:1s, peer programming, whiteboarding or training sessions
  • You’ll be helping your team deliver code in a high trust environment using continuous delivery, ensuring the team has a great delivery cadence and a strong connection with stakeholders (using demos, retros, blameless incident reviews, and the like).. While you won’t be as hands-on with the code as your team are, you’ll still be writing code, helping with code reviews, and fixing bugs; as well as providing technical advice and documentation for systems/processes
  • Evaluate the performance of the technical architecture of our infrastructure and adopt industry trends

And a little bit of…

  • Leading by example with some hands on coding in Java/Golang
  • Contributing as part of the wider team to achieve organisational objectives even if this means doing things that aren’t strictly within the scope of your role

Your qualification

We're looking for a candidate who has experience with the following:

  • Significant experience in previous success and failure (“scars”), which help will you make better decisions
  • Previous people leadership experience is ideal, or you’re ready to take the leap into team leadership
  • Significant experience in working on major systems in one or more languages - preferably Golang
  • Experience within a similar industry is helpful but not crucial
  • Someone who is adaptable and knows how to build, change, and adapt to the needs of a company as it grows

We know that people are more than what’s on their CV. If you’re unsure that you have the right profile for the role... hit the ‘Apply’ button and give it a try!

Come live the Lightspeed experience...

  • Ability to do your job in a truly flexible environment
  • Genuine career opportunities in a company that’s creating new jobs everyday
