Tech lead with management experience at Likvido

100% Remote Worldwide Full-time Programming (Front-End)
Sorry, but this job listing has expired!
Hi , I hope you’re our next tech lead! Likvido is a 4-year old company with insanely big ambitions. We’re around 55 employees located around the world. We have customers in Denmark and in the UK, but the initial stretch goal is to become a European unicorn. The whole product team is remote-first, with people from many different nationalities - Denmark, Scotland, Spain, Italy, Russia … you name it. We’re a team with very high expectations, so we look for the best people anywhere. We’re not a “bullshit remote” company where it's a “flexible remote”. You can either work from home, use our office in Copenhagen - or be a digital nomad traveling around. We honestly don’t care, as long as you live the life you want. We care about output & that’s it. **Who is Likvido?** We automate bookkeeping for thousands of customers. And before you run away screaming and thinking, “noooooo, how boring!”, just hear me out! Just think about it. Your first thought was, “wow, that's ****ing boring” But how do you think our customers feel? You’re a tech person. You’re a nerd (like us!). After all, you got into development. You probably feel some pleasure in how structured accounting systems are, and you probably fantasized about how to implement double-entry bookkeeping architecture at one point in your life - amirite? Our customers are not nerds. They don’t think bookkeeping is cool. It’s super important for them, as it’s the foundation for both growth and not being closed by the government. That is why Likvido is so important: We let our customers focus on what they are passionate about. Whether it's growing their business, spending more time with the family, or pursuing more hobbies - Likvido puts your accounting on autopilot! **How will we do it?** Very long story and this job post is already really long. But I can tell you that over the next few years, it means we have to build: - An accounting system - Deep integrations with a bank (signup with Likvido, you get a bank account) - Automate the bookkeeper If you’re looking for tech challenges? You’ve arrived at the right place! **Who are you and what are you supposed to do?** Huge ambitions are great, but if you don’t build it on a solid foundation, you’re ****ed. This role is responsible for building a solid foundation in your product team. We deeply care about building the proper infrastructure. That means making the right technical decisions, using the newest technologies, and consistently improving our platforms. We strive to use 25% of all development time on infrastructure and tech debt improvements. We also measure feature usage and take removing features very seriously, so we have fewer things to maintain. The core of this role is a tech-lead for our product team. Product teams in Likvido are typically 5-6 developers with a UX’er and a product manager in each team. As a tech-lead, you’re responsible for: - Reviewing pull requests from team members - Help with hiring and training developers - Help the product manager and UX’er break down epics - Prioritize the most critical tech debt or infrastructure problems - Participate in product planning sessions, to help the PM with ideas, feedback and feasibility input - Participate in cross-team sessions with other tech leads, to discuss important architecture decisions - Have the final word for software architecture decisions within the team - Make sure the team follows the overall technical structures and paths we have set forth in Likvido - Implementing features (realistically, you spend 25-50% of your time in code) You **must** have management experience, as we see this role growing into an engineering manager down the road. As an engineering manager, developers would report directly to you. However, the job starts out as a tech lead and you will first talk about becoming an engineering manager when you’ve excelled at being a tech lead. **Your skillset:** To succeed in this role, you identify yourself as: - You’re a great .NET developer with what that entails in 2022 (obvious keywords: Azure & cloud experience, Kubernetes/Docker, .NET Core / .NET 6, Vue.js/React experience) - You have at least five years of professional development experience, but most likely, you’re closer to 8-10 years - You have experience both as a manager and tech-lead from prior companies - You’re a critical pragmatist. You understand when quick solutions are acceptable and even more critical when they are not. You’re not an extreme perfectionist (no need to build a perfect solution), but you’re also not a hacker (we cannot just hack things together) - You have good communication skills. You will attend business meetings, talk to customers (online) & present to the company. **Our tech stack** This is our tech-stack in keywords: - Webapp with VueJS frontend using the 'Backend-For-Frontend' approach - Our API’s are running .NET 6 - Services are running on AKS (Azure Kubernetes Services) - Source code is hosted on Github, and Github Actions is used to deploy services to AKS - SQL Server and Azure Blobs for our data storage needs. - Our general architecture is to build bounded contexts, with several services and databases inside each context. The services are small and scalable, and we use both queues, event grids, and HTTP APIs for communicating between services. **Practicalities** - You will work 100% remote along with our existing team, but you are of course also welcome at the Copenhagen office as much as you want - Salary expectation between 85-100k EUR a year depending on experience - We work within CET office hours but are flexible to accommodate other schedules (especially if you’re a digital nomad and have shorter periods in funny places) - We pay very competitive salaries and are open to warrants for the right candidate - You’ll earn paid vacation days each month - We have a learning and development budget - We expect you to be fluent in English - The position is full-time - Your manager will be operating from Denmark
