THE OPPORTUNITY

We are hiring a Tech Lead Frontend Software Engineer for our Explore team in Brazil! This is a Remote – Brazil position, meaning you can work from anywhere within the country. Please note that this role is only open to candidates in Brazil.

As a Tech Lead, you will oversee a team of software engineers and ensure the pace and quality of their technical deliveries. Your team will see you as a technical reference, and you should expect to code some key features, review pull requests, and actively participate in all the architectural decisions of the squad. You will collaborate closely with the Product Manager in order to evaluate the feasibility of tasks, choose the best strategy for assigning and splitting user stories and prioritize engineering issues and technical debts. You need to make sure that agile ceremonies are running effectively and watch out for any process bottlenecks. 

It is also expected of you to have a sharp strategic mindset, questioning the product team and stakeholders about the scope and timing of features, balancing the complexity and the cost of opportunity of deliveries, while fostering a culture of innovation in your team. In addition, you're expected to perform management tasks such as mentoring, facilitating, and conducting regular one-on-ones with the members of your team, making sure that they are constantly challenged, recognized, engaged, and that they keep improving their technical skills over time. You should assess their performance regularly and draw the best plan for their career.

 

YOUR IMPACT

• Develop, often in pair programming, parts of the features (expected around 30% to 50% of your time);
• Account for systems reliability and monitoring, fostering the ownership in the team, keeping the team's SLOs under budget, as well as ensuring the team is on top of our flows monitoring;
• Manage technical debts and engineering backlog;
• Set up experiments to test improvements.
• Ensure successful deliveries and promote the long-term technical health of our journeys.
• Ensure a high bar on code quality standards, making sure devs are proud of their work;
• Work in a collaborative and agile environment that prioritizes people over process and is laser-focused on productivity;
• Take part in incident resolution and troubleshooting in production.
• Help the engineering team grow on their career;
• Live the mission: inspire and empower others by genuinely caring for your own wellbeing and your colleagues. Bring wellbeing to the forefront of work, and create a supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable taking care of themselves, taking time off, and finding work-life balance.

WHO YOU ARE

• You have experience in mobile development.
• You have experience working with modern agile product development teams.
• You are versed in working with TypeScript;
• You have experience with React Native.
• You are familiar with working with BFF;
• You have analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills;
• You have well-developed communication skills and are capable of clearly articulating ideas when communicating to groups, including multidisciplinary teams located in several countries with different cultures;
• You can articulate ideas clearly when speaking to groups in English.
• You can perform management tasks such as mentoring, facilitating and conducting regular one-on-ones with the members of your team, making sure that they are constantly challenged, engaged, and improving their skills.

The following would be considered a plus:

• Experience with the React ecosystem;
• Experience with GraphQL;
• Experience with Firebase ecosystem (Custom events, remote configs, Crashlytics);
• Experience with Design System and common UX patterns;
• Experience with accessibility (mobile).
