  • Bring in emerging technologies and industry best practices to improve innovation, scalability, and developer productivity.
  • Build a clear and collaborative environment within the team and with Product, Design, QA, and other cross-functional partners.
  • Regularly engage with stakeholders, sharing progress, technical insights, and delivery outcomes.
  • Coach engineers technically and professionally, growing senior engineers and tech leads into autonomous contributors.
  • Hire and grow a high-performing, agile, self-organizing team that delivers stable, scalable, and reliable features.

  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or similar), CI/CD, and observability tooling.
  • Experience in fintech, payments, or other highly regulated, high-security environments is a plus.
  • Strong understanding of product and business metrics, and comfortable setting objectives with the OKR framework.
  • A balanced approach to shipping features and engineering excellence, with a product-oriented mindset.

Why it works

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.
