Hiring for Technical Lead
As we expand our platform into an AI-native procurement operating system, we’re looking for an Technical Lead who combines strong technical depth with exceptional people and delivery leadership.
This is a role for someone who thrives in high-velocity, high-impact environments — someone who can architect complex systems, coach and grow engineers, and drive execution across multiple product lines. You will work closely with Product, Design, Data, and GTM teams, and play a pivotal role in shaping the technical backbone of our next stage of growth. This is a full-time, in-office role based at our HQ in Gurugram.
What will you do:
Technical Leadership
- Lead architecture, design, and development of scalable, secure, and high-performance systems across our core procurement platform.
- Own technical decision-making across multiple product pods; enforce engineering best practices, code quality, and architectural consistency.
- Work hands-on where needed to unblock teams, review code, design systems, and raise the engineering bar.
People & Team Leadership
- Manage, mentor, and grow a team of Backend, Frontend, and Full-Stack Engineers.
- Drive hiring, onboarding, performance reviews, and talent development.
- Build a culture of ownership, craftsmanship, speed, and healthy debate.
Execution & Delivery
- Own end-to-end delivery of projects, ensuring high-quality releases on time.
- Transform product requirements into technical plans, sprints, and milestones.
- Identify and mitigate risks early; solve problems before they escalate.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner closely with Product Managers on discovery, scoping, and prioritization.
- Work with Data & AI teams to integrate ML/GenAI capabilities into core workflows.
- Collaborate with QA, DevOps, and Design to ensure smooth releases and exceptional user experience.
What you would bring:
Technical Depth
- 5-8 years of engineering experience.
- Strong command over system design, distributed systems, microservices, API architectures, and cloud-native technologies (AWS/GCP).
- Strong backend experience (Ruby on Rails, Go, Python — any modern backend stack).
- Solid understanding of databases, caching, queues, CI/CD, observability, and security.
Leadership & Communication
- Proven experience managing and scaling engineering teams in a high-growth SaaS or product startup.
- Ability to influence without authority and align cross-functional stakeholders.
- Capacity to simplify complex technical concepts for business and product teams.
Mindset & Culture
- High ownership, high velocity, and a bias for action.
- A builder’s mindset — comfortable with ambiguity and 0→1 problem-solving.
- Strong customer empathy and a desire to build category-defining products.
- Someone who raises the bar for the entire engineering org.
