About Us
We are an established technology firm delivering high-performance B2B and B2C solutions. Our platform is a sophisticated ecosystem involving complex integrations with KYC/KYB providers, credit scoring systems, and loan management engines. We operate in a fast-paced environment where technical ownership and architectural pragmatism are key to our success.
Role Overview
We are looking for a Tech Lead to serve as a "playing coach" for our development team. This is a hybrid role with a 60/40 split between hands-on engineering and people management. You will guide the evolution of our .NET/PostgreSQL application and Next.js frontend, ensuring technical excellence across the entire stack.
As the technical authority, you will manage the full lifecycle of our product, from sprint planning and backlog refinement to overseeing complex third-party integrations and ensuring a robust deployment on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
Key Responsibilities
- Hands-on Development (60%): Lead by example by writing clean, high-performance code in C# and TypeScript/Next.js. Solve complex performance bottlenecks and implement core features within our monolithic architecture.
- Team Leadership & Management (40%): Manage, mentor, and motivate a development team, and foster a culture of technical excellence.
- Integration Excellence: Architect and oversee critical integrations with external services, including KYC/KYB, E-sign, Credit Scoring, and various lending partners.
- Process Ownership: Facilitate core Agile ceremonies, including Sprint Planning, Product Backlog Refinement, and Dailies. Ensure the team maintains a high velocity without compromising on quality.
- Architectural Oversight: Maintain and evolve the technical vision of our .NET solution, ensuring it remains scalable and maintainable as we integrate more B2B/B2C modules and company registries.
- CI/CD: Oversee our infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform, ensuring stable deployments and efficient CI/CD pipelines.
Requirements
- Technical Stack: 7+ years of experience, with expert-level proficiency in .NET Core and PostgreSQL.
- Full-Stack Awareness: Strong experience with Next.js, React, and TypeScript to effectively conduct code reviews and guide frontend architecture.
- Integration Background: Proven track record of integrating third-party APIs (Financial services, Payment gateways, or Loan Management Systems).
- Leadership Experience: Experience managing engineering teams.
- Cloud Proficiency: Hands-on experience with Cloud platforms (ideally GCP).
- Agile Mindset: Deep understanding of Scrum/Agile processes.
- Languages: Native or near-native Russian (for internal team communication) and Professional English (for collaboration with the broader product and stakeholder team).
Soft Skills
- The "Playing Coach" Mentality: You enjoy being in the code but are equally passionate about unblocking your team and improving processes.
- Proactivity: Ability to operate effectively in an MVP environment where refining processes is just as important as writing code.
- Clarity: Ability to translate complex technical requirements into actionable tasks for the team.
