Software Engineering Tech Lead

As a Software Engineering Tech Lead at Leverege, you’ll be at the forefront of the tech industry, building Internet of Things (IoT) systems that have never been built before. You’ll have the opportunity to apply your skills and experience right away, working with a highly-motivated team of project managers, product owners, designers, engineering managers, and software engineers as you build and deploy massively scalable microservices-based edge and cloud solutions.

This role will be a great fit for you if you’ve developed software as an individual contributor but now you prefer to act as a technical leader (no direct coding responsibilities) and guide a large team to develop incredible products without the direct people responsibilities of an engineering manager (you won’t need to conduct performance reviews, 1:1s, etc.).

As a Software Engineering Tech Lead, you’ll be responsible for assisting with building and maintaining the Leverege IoT Stack (front-end and back-end); providing technical oversight to onshore and offshore development teams; implementing product customizations and building quick turn-around solutions for end-customers; supporting design and troubleshooting efforts; mentoring less experienced software engineers, and promoting technical growth within Leverege and for our customers. 

You must have 5+ years of professional experience and excel in a team environment; be highly organized, and have excellent problem solving and debugging skills. Experience required with Javascript (node.js, react.js, etc.); Containerized software (Docker, Kubernetes); Databases (NoSQL, SQL, and other Cloud DBs); elastic search and Redis; DevOps (CI/CD - Jenkins, log management - ELK, container automation - Helm); and HTML/CSS.
