You and the role
Each day you will be facing interesting questions about the implementation of large-scale software systems that need to handle challenges of scaling, resilience and performance.

We would love if you have
- Proven technical lead experience on complex modern digital solutions.
- A demonstrable career track record of software development. This can be from experience with the Typescript frameworks - React or Vue, GoLang etc.. or from a more traditional Java or .Net background.
