Role:
We are now growing our team and looking for driven professionals ready to build their careers in a strong, international studio with a product that’s making waves worldwide. Currently we’re seeking a hands-on Team Lead (Backend or Frontend) to drive the development of our Client Portal (Partner Area) — a core platform used by our B2B customers to manage game certifications, marketing materials, onboarding workflows, and compliance documents.
As Team Lead, you will manage a small, agile squad (3 developers + 1 QA) and take full ownership of delivery, quality, and system integrity. You’ll lead by example — actively coding, reviewing, and mentoring — while collaborating with product and data teams to build a scalable, secure, and intuitive portal.
Responsibilities:
- Lead a cross-functional team and ensure high-quality product delivery end to end
- Take active ownership of the technical roadmap, architecture, and delivery lifecycle
- Write and review production-grade code — expect 50%+ hands-on contribution
- Collaborate closely with Product, QA, and DevOps to turn business needs into robust features
- Manage sprint planning, retrospectives, and Agile processes
Frontend:
- Build and scale UI/UX with React, TypeScript, Tailwind, and component libraries like ShadCN
- Work with dynamic dashboards, role-based flows, and Figma-driven design
- Ensure testing coverage with Playwright, Jest, and Testing Library
Backend:
- Own API development with Python (FastAPI), optionally Node.js
- Manage integrations with Snowflake, GCP, and complex file/document workflows
- Implement secure auth (OAuth2), role-based access, and CI/CD with GitHub Actions
Requirements:
- 5+ years of hands-on software development experience
- 1+ year as a Team Lead or Tech Lead, managing engineers and cross-functional collaboration
- Deep expertise in either Backend (Python, Node.js, SQL, REST APIs) or Frontend (React, TypeScript, Tailwind)
- Proven experience in system architecture, mentoring, and driving delivery
- Familiarity with Agile and DevOps culture
- Strong communication and leadership skills
Benefits:
- Remote-first flexibility — work from anywhere with a setup that prioritizes deep focus, autonomy, and true work-life harmony
- Learning & development support — personal growth budgets and development days
- Health & well-being benefits — medical insurance and well-being budgets
- A yearly bonus tied to company performance and individual contribution
- Career growth opportunities — both vertical promotion and horizontal transitions
- An international, professional team with colleagues from across the globe
