Team Lead (ReactJS / Node.js)

Role Overview

We're looking for a Team Lead (ReactJS / Node.js) to lead a small, high-performing team of engineers while staying hands-on as a part-time individual contributor. This is not a purely managerial role — you'll still write code, contribute to architecture, and lead by technical example. You'll partner closely with Product and Design, own the team's execution cadence, and create an environment where engineers do their best work.

What You Will Do

You'll be accountable not just for what you ship, but for the delivery, health, and growth of your team. You'll zoom out to align the team with product goals, and zoom in to unblock a critical feature or review a key architectural decision.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role is best suited for a senior engineer who has already led or mentored a small team and is ready to own that responsibility more formally. You'll work on features that ship quickly and matter, and have a wide compensation range to reflect different seniority profiles within this role.

Requirements

• 6+ years of professional software development experience, with a strong focus on full-stack JavaScript / TypeScript
• 1+ year of direct team leadership experience — managing or formally leading a small engineering team (2+ people)
• Strong experience with React.js and modern frontend patterns
• Strong experience with Node.js, including designing GraphQL schemas and understanding resolvers, dataloaders, and API structure for maintainability
• Advanced TypeScript proficiency
• Strong experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred)
• Active daily use of AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or similar)
• Strong communication skills in English

Benefits

• 100% remote with flexible working hours and async-friendly culture
• Collaborative team that values ownership, open communication, and autonomy over micromanagement
• Yearly team retreats focused on connection, alignment, and building strong team relationships
• Paid Time Off
