The Company

2025 Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Canada Recipient & Fast 500 North America Recipient 🏆

SpryPoint is modernizing how utilities serve their communities. As a high-growth software company, we're shaking up the status quo in the utility industry with the first and only truly cloud-native customer service and operations platform purpose-built for modern utilities.

Founded by industry veterans in 2011, we've grown from a profitable startup to a rapidly scaling company of 300+ employees serving 100+ utility clients across North America and the Caribbean. Our mission is simple: utility leaders should expect more from their technology providers.

Utilities face urgent demand to replace inefficient legacy systems while managing increasing operational complexity, and evolving customer expectations. With more than a decade of experience, and a track record of successful implementations spanning water, electric, and gas utilities, SpryPoint has built a reputation as a trusted and mission-critical partner to utilities across North America.

We deliver comprehensive solutions including SpryCIS, SpryEngage, SpryMobile, and SpryWallet that modernize the entire meter-to-cash process. What sets us apart? Our "updates, not upgrades" approach, user-centric design, and unwavering focus on customer success.

Backed by strategic investment from Norwest Venture Partners since 2023, and an exciting new investment partnership from Insight Partners announced in 2026, we're accelerating our growth while staying true to our core values: lead with kindness, vision with impact, radical honesty, bold disruption, keep it simple, and execute with excellence.

Join our award-winning team in transforming an essential industry that powers communities across the Americas.

Position Overview

At SpryPoint, we value collaborative work environments, automation, continuous learning, and delivering value to our users. We are actively seeking a highly skilled and motivated Software Engineering Team Lead to guide and lead our talented team of software engineers. As a technical Team Lead, you will play a critical role in ensuring the successful delivery of high-quality software products. You'll provide leadership, technical guidance, and mentorship to your team members. Your leadership will foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement, empowering your team to deliver exceptional results.

Responsibilities

  • Use AI tools such as Claude Code wherever they add value across the full lifecycle, from design through development, testing, and release, to reduce repetitive effort and raise quality, while giving the tools context and validating their output every step of the way.
  • Develop clean, maintainable, testable code, and review and validate what AI produces rather than accepting it as-is.
  • Influence technical design and architecture decisions, and own the outcome of what you deliver.
  • Author and maintain technical designs, architecture documentation, and best practices that the rest of the team follows.
  • Conduct code reviews, including reviewing and validating AI-generated code, and incorporate feedback.
  • Contribute to testing, using AI to automate it where it adds value, to help deliver high-quality solutions.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues across development and production.
  • Provide clear direction, guidance, and mentorship to a team of software engineers.
  • Foster a collaborative and innovative environment, encouraging knowledge sharing and professional growth within the team.
  • Conduct regular one-on-one meetings and performance evaluations, offering constructive feedback and supporting career growth.
  • Raise engineering standards and quality across the wider team, and drive process and tooling improvements that make the team more efficient and effective.
  • Mentor less experienced developers and support their growth.
  • Work within a collaborative Agile SCRUM team, integrating AI-assisted work into the team's design, build, test, and release cycle.
  • Communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating trade-offs, giving updates, and raising risks early.
  • Help the Client Success team by assisting with support-related issues.

Qualifications and Competencies

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
  • 5+ Years of experience in software development, with a focus on Java backend web applications.
  • Previous experience in a leadership or mentorship role.
  • Interest in expanding knowledge and applying knowledge to solve industry problems
  • Proficiency in Java programming language and related frameworks
  • Strong understanding of backend development concepts such as RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and asynchronous processing.
  • Experience with relational databases and SQL
  • Experience working with web technologies HTML, Javascript, and CSS
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms and services (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform).
  • Expertise in software design patterns, object-oriented programming principles, and clean code practices. Demonstrate fluency in developing clean, maintainable, testable code
  • Hands-on experience with version control systems (e.g., Git), CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing frameworks.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, with a focus on scalability, performance, and security.
  • Effective communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced Agile environment.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
