[Remote] Technical Lead (Full-Stack)

Job description

About the Role 

We are seeking an experienced Tech Lead to drive the technical direction of our Product Development team. In this role, you will own the architecture, mentor a team of talented  engineers, and partner closely with Product and Business stakeholders to deliver high-impact products that serve millions of users. If you are passionate about building scalable systems, growing engineering talent, and shaping the technology roadmap of a fast-moving product, we would love to hear from you. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of full-stack engineers — provide technical guidance, conduct code reviews, and foster a culture of engineering excellence and continuous learning. 
• Own the end-to-end technical architecture of products and services: design scalable, secure, and maintainable systems aligned with business goals and long-term product strategy. 
• Partner with PM and cross-functional stakeholders to translate high-level business requirements into clear technical roadmaps, milestones, and deliverables. 
• Drive technical decision-making — evaluate trade-offs, select appropriate technologies, frameworks, and tools, and define coding standards and best practices across the team. 
• Oversee the full software development lifecycle: planning, estimation, design, implementation, code review, testing, deployment, monitoring, and post-release support. 
• Conduct hands-on development on the most critical and complex components of the system, while balancing leadership responsibilities. 
• Define and enforce documentation standards for technical designs, system architecture, APIs, workflows, and operational runbooks. 
• Establish and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines, automated testing strategies (unit, integration, end-to-end), and DevOps best practices. 
• Benchmark, troubleshoot, and continuously optimize application performance, scalability, reliability, and cost-efficiency. 
• Identify, evaluate, and mitigate technical risks; lead incident response and root-cause analysis for production issues. 
• Champion the adoption of modern technologies — including AI-assisted development, AI Agents, and emerging tooling — to accelerate delivery and improve product quality. 
• Collaborate with hiring managers to interview, recruit, and onboard engineering talent; contribute to team planning and resource allocation. 
• Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences, including senior leadership and external partners. 
• Drive a culture of accountability, ownership, and quality across the engineering team. 
• Comfortable to engage with end user clients to understand requirements and perform business analysis. 

Your skills and experience

• At least 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 2+ years in a Tech Lead, Engineering Lead, or equivalent leadership role. 
• Proven track record of architecting and delivering production-grade, large-scale, distributed systems. 
• Strong hands-on expertise in Node.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Golang. 
• Solid front-end experience with Angular and/or ReactJS. 
• Deep knowledge of PostgreSQL — schema design, query optimization, indexing, and scaling strategies. 
• Strong proficiency with Docker, container orchestration, and modern deployment workflows. 
• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), microservices architecture, and event-driven systems. 
• Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, observability, and DevOps best practices. 
• Solid grasp of modern AI concepts and ecosystems — MCP, AI Agents, Agentic workflows, and LLM-based application design. 
• Proven experience using AI-assisted coding tools such as Claude, Codex, Cursor or similar. 
• Excellent system design skills with the ability to make sound architectural trade-offs. 
• Strong leadership, mentoring, and people-development skills — able to grow engineers and build high-performing teams. 
• Excellent communication skills in English (both written and verbal) and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels. 
• Experience performing Business Analyst-style responsibilities: requirement gathering, solution analysis, and functional clarification. 
• Comfortable working remotely with distributed teams across time zones. 
• Immediately available or with a notice period of no more than one month is preferred. 

Nice to Have 

• Experience leading product teams in infrastructure, building management, IoT or other high-traffic consumer products. 
• Experience building and deploying services using AWS Cloud Services. 
• Contributions to open-source projects or technical thought leadership (talks, blogs, papers). 
• Experience designing AI-augmented products or integrating LLMs into production systems. 
• Familiarity with security best practices, data privacy, and compliance frameworks.

Why you'll love working here

• Very attractive salary commensurate with experience, plus performance-based bonuses. 
• Clear career development path with opportunities to grow into Engineering Manager or Principal Engineer roles. 
• Access to the latest technologies, tools, and AI-assisted development platforms. 
• Opportunity for business trips to Singapore and engagement with strategic partners. 
• Work alongside a friendly, experienced, and highly talented team. 
• Professional, collaborative, and supportive working environment. 
• Work-from-home arrangement.
