Backend Product Engineering Lead (Remote)

Backend Product Engineering Lead | 100% Remote

Beyond more money: build, test, see your impact. Our client is a high revenue, fast-growing international tech and digital economy company, operating across 10 international markets. We name them on the first call. This is a hands-on technical leadership role: you will architect scalable back-end systems and write high-quality code while raising the bar for the engineers around you.

About the role

You own the architecture and development of scalable back-end systems. You will work closely with the engineering lead and CTO to make critical technical decisions and turn business needs into clean technical solutions. This is not a pure management role. It is a builder’s role where you must stay hands-on with the code and mentor your team through direct, daily technical guidance.

What you will do

• Lead the design and architecture of scalable, reliable back-end systems
• Write, review, and optimize code for high performance and security
• Mentor back-end engineers and enforce engineering best practices
• Monitor system performance and scale the infrastructure to handle growth
• Translate business requirements into technical solutions with cross-functional teams
• Manage technical debt and drive continuous improvement within the team

What you need

• 5 or more years in back-end development, designing and building scalable systems
• Strong coding skills in ExpressJS, NodeJS, and Postgres
• Fluent English, spoken and written
• Good to have: Deep knowledge of microservices, RESTful APIs, distributed systems, and security practices

What you get

• 100% remote, for eligible roles. No traffic, no commute. Get 2 to 4 hours a day back for your health, your family and your life. Work from your hometown.
• Grow by the impact you make, not by years served. Choose your path: lead a team, or go deep as an expert. Your grade follows your scope.

What to expect

• A short call with OrgScale Recruitment, then two interviews with the hiring team, sometimes a third. We update you within 5 working days after each step.
