# Engineering Team Lead, Management Track

About KATIX KATIX is an online auction platform for high-value used goods, built around trust and transparency. Individuals sell. Only registered businesses bid. We started with motorcycles and cars, and we are planning to expand beyond vehicles. The entire sale happens online. A seller photographs their vehicle and uploads the documents from their phone, the listing goes to auction, and the sale completes without a trip to a shop. That puts real weight on engineering: how easy the upload is, and how accurately the vehicle comes across to bidders, decide whether a deal closes. The company was founded in 2006 (formerly Interfirm, renamed to match the platform) and is about 70 people today, average age around 27, more than 60 percent women. Around 20 new hires join in April 2027. The engineering team works in a mix of Japanese and English, and Japanese is the working language across the company. Our direction is explicit: an AI-native engineering organization measured on business outcomes, not on features shipped. Engineering value is judged by what it changes in the business, and by how well it enables other departments to build with AI themselves. The role You are a tech lead who i
