Tech Lead [gn] Feature Team

We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on Tech Lead to guide a small feature team of 3 to 4 engineers. We are not looking for an administrative manager who just sits in meetings and assigns tasks; we want a builder. In this role, you will lead by doing. You will write exceptional code, architect robust backend systems, and guide your team by example. We love engineers who truly "feel" the product—people who understand the business goals, care deeply about the user experience, and proactively do whatever it takes to ship a great product. You will own the technical execution of your team using a modern stack focused on SaaS backend architectures, Scala, Python, and TypeScript. Crucially, you are a modern developer who knows how to leverage AI coding agents to multiply your team's output without compromising on quality. Core Responsibilities: Hands-on Coding & Execution: Spend a significant amount of your time writing high-quality backend code, taking on the most complex technical challenges yourself. Technical Stack Mastery: Guide the technical direction of your team using Scala and Python for robust backend data systems, and TypeScript for full-stack feature delivery. AI-Driven Velocity: Actively use and advocate for AI coding agents (like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools) within your daily workflow and teach your team how to use them efficiently to ship code faster. Product-Driven Ownership: Connect deeply with the product vision. You don't just build specs blindly; you understand the goals and optimize your technical choices to deliver the best product value. SaaS Delivery Mastery: Own the entire lifecycle of your team's features, ensuring they are designed for multi-tenant cloud scalability and successfully deployed to production. Mentorship by Example: Coach and unblock your 3-4 engineers through pair programming, deep code reviews, and technical guidance, raising the bar for the entire team. Goal Achievement & Velocity: Focus relentlessly on hittin
