As a Tech Lead at IMMO, you will face different challenges every day, as the team builds out a product from scratch and owns its full stack and its product roadmap. On one day you may be putting together a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions or writing a serverless web service in Node.js. On another day, you might be building a micro front-end in React.js or optimising a key SQL query. And on still other days, you could be defining AWS infrastructure for your team in Terraform, helping your product manager to refine the team’s backlog of user stories, designing an event-driven interface between your product and other systems or increasing your team’s automated test coverage to cover an edge case that hadn’t been considered before.

We’re looking for a Technical Lead with a passion for solving tough problems with performant code. As a leader of the team you will own designs, implement solutions, and take ownership of technical outcomes. You'll mentor members of the team and help them reach their full potential. You will be challenged to turn apps around quickly but thoughtfully, balancing speed to market with longevity and scalability, all in the name of extraordinary customer experiences.

    • Join an enthusiastic team of engineers working on IMMO’s core engineering products, playing a major part in the company’s growth
