At Functionize, we’re redefining how software gets tested. Our AI-powered platform helps engineering teams eliminate the most time-consuming parts of testing—so they can ship faster, with confidence. As we scale, we’re looking for a Tech Lead Manager (TLM) to lead one of our core product engineering teams.
This team is responsible for the core administrative and organizational features that our customers rely on every day. In this role, you'll lead a team of talented engineers, setting the technical direction for the services that control authentication, user management, reporting, and integrations. You will be a hands-on leader, driving the architecture for critical systems like RBAC and SSO, while mentoring your reports and ensuring your team delivers a secure, reliable, and intuitive administrative experience.
What You’ll Own
- Lead and grow a team of engineers, conducting regular one-on-ones, providing performance feedback, and investing in their technical and career development.
- Drive the technical vision and roadmap for the team, covering key areas like authentication, user management, reporting, and integrations.
- Own the architecture and execution for all administrative services, including Team, User and Project management, Reporting, as well as our third-party Integrations.
- Oversee and orchestrate key projects from concept through delivery, empowering your team to execute with clear ownership and high quality.
- Foster a culture of technical excellence and security-first development, sharing best practices and elevating the skills of the entire team.
- Partner cross-functionally with product, design, and other engineering teams to shape a cohesive platform experience
What Makes You a Fit
- 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a significant focus on backend development and distributed systems.
- 2+ years of experience in a formal management or tech lead role, with a proven track record of successfully mentoring and managing engineers.
- Direct experience designing and building systems for authentication (SSO, OAuth), authorization (RBAC), and API-based integrations.
- Advanced proficiency with Go and a deep understanding of designing, building, and operating distributed systems at scale.
- Strong command of SQL databases and performance optimization techniques.
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (ideally GCP) and containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
- Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the ability to articulate a technical vision and guide a team in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
At Functionize, you'll work with smart, driven teammates tackling complex engineering challenges in an environment that values autonomy, curiosity, and continuous improvement. If you're excited to build powerful tools that help developers move faster and smarter, we would love to hear from you.
