Team Lead- FS Team

About the Role

We're looking for a Full Stack Team Lead to grow and guide an engineering team of 4-6 full stack developers. This is a new team at a new site - you'll be standing it up from the ground: shaping how the team works and building it into a site we keep growing.

The team you'll lead works end-to-end - Angular front end, Java/Spring and Node.js services, cloud-native deployment on AWS, and AI-assisted/agentic development workflows. Your team owns a mix of new product work and modernization of existing systems, so you'll need to be equally comfortable starting something from scratch and navigating a system you didn't build.

You'll spend roughly 40% of your time hands-on - architecture calls, design reviews, unblocking the team, prototyping - and the rest leading people, planning, and partnering with our Israel-based teams.

What You'll Do

Stand up a new team and site - define working agreements and establish the engineering culture

Lead and grow a team of 4-6 full stack engineers: 1:1s, career development, performance management, hiring

Own technical direction for your team's services - architecture decisions, design reviews, code quality standards

Balance new feature development with responsible modernization of existing systems, including migration to AWS

Champion AI-assisted and agentic development practices across the team - from adopting the right tools to setting

standards for how AI is used in code, review, and testing

Own security and compliance posture for your team's services - secure-by-design architecture, secrets and access management, dependency and vulnerability handling, and meeting audit and regulatory requirements together with our security teams

Drive sprint planning, estimation, and delivery in an Agile environment

Own delivery pipeline health - CI/CD, deployment, observability - in partnership with DevOps

Partner closely with counterparts and stakeholders in Israel across time zones

What We're Looking For

MUST HAVE

Experience & Leadership

7+ years of full stack software development experience

2-3+ years leading an engineering team directly (4+ reports) - including performance conversations, growth plans, and

hiring

Proven track record in both greenfield and legacy/existing codebases - you know how to triage tech debt and choose when to refactor vs. rewrite

Solid hands-on experience with AWS - you'll be leading both new project onboarding and migration of existing systems onto AWS
