We're looking for a Lead Engineer to join us on our mission
As a Lead Engineer for our Vectera product at Teamleader, you:
Lead & grow the team
* Own delivery end-to-end: guide work from idea to production and outcomes, keeping scope tight and quality high.
* Run the engineering rhythm: lead planning, stand-ups, reviews, and retros to keep flow and focus.
* Coach engineers through pairing, thoughtful code reviews, and asking great questions; help juniors level up fast.
* Drive technical design within the team and with adjacent teams; align on patterns and solve cross-cutting problems.
* Continuously improve how we work—process, code quality, testing, and observability—so we ship smaller, safer, and faster.
* Shepherd the pipeline: keep build/test/deploy healthy so changes reach customers swiftly and safely.
* Assess feasibility and risk: evaluate solution options, call out risks early, and help the team prioritize.
* Communicate clearly with engineers, PM, QA, and stakeholders—transparent, no-surprises updates.
Ship great product
* Modernize the codebase: reduce AngularJS surface area, improve performance, structure, and usability.
* Build new features with a bias to simplicity and maintainability (e.g., AI meeting summaries).
* Elevate quality: improve test coverage, error budgets, and SLOs; champion pragmatic engineering standards.
* Own production: collaborate on incident reviews, root-cause analysis, and preventative fixes.
Our Tech Stack
We value adaptability over buzzword bingo — but here's what we use today:
* Frontend
: Angular (TypeScript), legacy AngularJS, WebSockets
* Backend
: Python, Django, Django REST Framework
* Infrastructure
: Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Redis
* Tooling
: GitHub, Jira, Slack, and a pragmatic Scrum approach
You'd be a great fit for this role, if you:
* Have 6+ years of software engineering experience and proven experience leading software teams or similar scope.
* Are confident across the our tech stack
* Can navigate and improve legacy code—you're comfortable structuring, refactoring, and paying down debt.
* Bring deep, hands-on experience with modern web frameworks in a stack like ours.
* Use your experience to pinpoint bugs, do root-cause analysis, spot risky patterns, and craft solid solutions.
* Care about code quality, documentation, and excellence of delivery—and know when to be pragmatic.
* Communicate crisply in English; you can be technical with engineers and clear with stakeholders. (Dutch is a plus.)
* Bonus: SaaS product experience and an eye for product delivery.
