Job description

We're partnered with a fast-scaling UK SaaS technology company building sophisticated, data-driven digital products used by commercial teams to better understand and engage their customers. As they evolve their next-generation customer-facing platforms, they're looking for a Technical Lead to take ownership of technical delivery and architectural direction.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll be involved from early design through to production deployment, working in a modern cloud environment, where code ships to live environments daily.

Tech Environment

You'll work with a modern stack including:

  • TypeScript, JavaScript
  • Microservices Architecture
  • Redis, SQL Server & Snowflake
  • AWS cloud infrastructure
  • Mature CI/CD pipelines and DevSecOps practices

It's a fast-moving SaaS environment with continuous deployment and a strong emphasis on engineering quality.

Requirements

If you're the kind of engineer who naturally sets technical standards, challenges architectural decisions, and raises the bar for everyone around you, this is your opportunity to lead from the front., You're a senior full stack engineer who has naturally evolved into technical leadership.

  • 10+ years' experience in full stack development
  • 3+ years' commercial TypeScript experience
  • Strong Node.js expertise
  • Proven background in system design and scalable architectures
  • Experience building and operating large, production SaaS platforms
  • A clean-code mindset (SOLID principles, design patterns, testable systems)
  • Experience working within mature CI/CD environments
  • Strong commercial awareness when designing solutions
  • Confident communicator who collaborates effectively with stakeholders
  • An interest in leveraging AI to improve and accelerate development
  • Passion for performance, security, and engineering excellence
  • Computer Science degree or equivalent real-world expertise

Interested?

If you're ready to shape technical direction in a high-growth SaaS environment, without stepping away from hands-on engineering, this could be the move.
