Tech Lead

A US-based fintech/edtech product used by thousands of educational organizations. The platform replaces paperwork and manual processes, making financial flows transparent and efficient.

The product has scaled from schools to districts and state-level implementations.

The team has been working on the project for 6+ years — stable product, mature codebase, strong engineering culture.

• Collaborate closely with Product, QA, Architecture, and DevOps teams to ensure clear requirements, technical feasibility, and business value.
• Participate in architecture discussions and ensure features are implemented according to technical and security standards.
• Follow and improve coding standards, review pull requests, and maintain high code quality.
• Develop new applications and confidently work with legacy systems.
• Take ownership of feature quality, including testing before QA handoff.
• Actively use AI tools to improve development efficiency and delivery quality.
• Lead assigned initiatives, coordinate required resources, and raise risks or concerns proactively.
• Keep technical and feature-related documentation up to date.
• Participate in discovery sessions and R&D activities when needed.

• Node.js / Express.js / TypeScript — 5+ years.
• JavaScript, React — 5+ years.
• Nest.js / Next.js — 3+ years.
• Microservices architecture & REST APIs — 3+ years.
• MongoDB (aggregations, transactions, clusters).

• Docker & CI/CD.
• Unit & integration testing.
• Experience using AI tools / Copilot in daily development.
