At Playnetic, we're hiring a Technical Team Lead to guide a newly formed squad of frontend, backend, and QA engineers. You'll combine leadership with hands-on coding to deliver real, meaningful features. If you've ever wanted a role where people and code matter equally, this is it.

You'll be the heartbeat of a cross-functional team, shaping how it works and grows from the start. It's a 50:50 mix of leadership and coding initially, shifting toward 70:30 as the team finds its rhythm.

• Lead and support a team of engineers, helping them stay focused, collaborative, and motivated
• Partner with product and design to plan and prioritise features that bring real impact
• Bring clarity and efficiency to standups, sprint planning, and delivery
• Spot and remove blockers early, manage risks, and drive team momentum
• Set the tone for a culture built on trust, feedback, and shared ownership
• Guide the team on engineering best practices and unblock technical challenges when needed

You'll work closely with our Engineering Manager, Joseph, and Product Owner, Kseniia. The team is brand new, and you'll play a key role in shaping how it works from day one.

What success looks like

In your first 30 to 90 days, you will:

• Run focused daily standups and efficient sprint planning sessions, ensuring everyone has clear ownership of their work
• Lead your team to deliver one major initiative, such as a provider integration or the BMS migration, with test coverage and solid documentation
• Help pick up 50% or more of support issues, with the team gaining confidence and independence in solving problems

Longer term, we'll look to you to:

• Build a high-performing, stable team that consistently delivers high-quality features
• Foster a culture of learning, autonomy, and collaboration
• Grow the team's technical and personal capabilities through mentoring and guidance

What you'll bring

• 7+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 1 to 2 years in a technical leadership role
• 3+ years of experience in the iGaming industry
• Experience working with cross-functional teams in an agile environment
• Strong communication skills and the ability to align technical and non-technical stakeholders
• A proactive mindset, confident problem-solving, and a bias toward action
• Background in either frontend or backend engineering (React, Next.js, .NET, AWS, Kafka, SQL are part of our stack)

Bonus if you have

• Previous remote team leadership experience
• A data-informed approach to technical decision making

Interview process

• Intro call with our recruiter: A casual conversation to get to know each other and cover the basics.
• 1-hour conversation with Kseniia (Product Owner) and Joseph (Engineering Manager): Focuses on team leadership, collaboration, and your approach to building great products.
• 1-hour technical interview with Orest (Senior Developer) and Joseph (Engineering Manager): A deep dive into your technical thinking, past experience, and leadership in an engineering context.

We move fast, respect your time, and make sure there's space for your questions too.
