Job description

If you are passionate about cloud software development, team collaboration, and creating outstanding products, join Spirii’s fantastic growth journey to lead the way for a sustainable future.

About Us

At Spirii, we develop and provide world-class charging products and digital solutions for electric vehicle users. Our Digital Development department fosters a "listen, learn, and lead" culture, enabling constant innovation and improvement in everything we do. We’re committed to making a positive impact, both in the industry and in our workplace.

The Role

Tech Leads at Spirii are technical enablers who create the conditions for their teams to build scalable, secure, high-quality software, and to do so with autonomy, clarity, and confidence. You will guide architectural thinking, coach engineers, facilitate informed decision-making, and ensure the team is aligned with strategic intent. Your success is measured not by the decisions you make, but by the decisions your team can make without you. You’ll collaborate closely with product development teams, internal stakeholders, near‑shore colleagues, and external partners. Reporting to one of our Engineering Managers, you’ll ensure we deliver high-performance, secure, and scalable software solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Context & Intent
• Help the team deeply understand the “why” behind initiatives and the outcomes we are aiming for.
• Set clear technical intent and enabling constraints without prescribing solutions.
• Coherent Planning
• Co‑plan initiatives within the Product Trio (Product Manager, Product Designer, Tech Lead).
• Ensure technical initiatives support both product goals and long‑term platform health.
• Technical Leadership & Architecture
• Facilitate architectural discussions, guide trade‑off analysis, and ensure RFCs/ADRs capture reasoning.
• Lead solution design and system performance improvements while empowering others to contribute.
• Promote scalable, maintainable, and secure system architecture.
• Code Quality, Testing, Security& Standards
• Champion best practices for coding standards, design patterns, and review processes.
• Lead the adoption of automated testing and ensure high‑quality releases.
• Coach the team on writing clean, reliable, secure code—instead of being a PR gatekeeper.
• Guide the team in building secure‑by‑design systems.
• Quality & Flow
• Monitor system health using dashboards, fitness reviews, and performance metrics.
• Identify and remove obstacles slowing the team down.
• Improve flow by enabling shared ownership and reducing dependencies on any single person.
• Coaching & Mentorship
• Grow engineers’ architectural literacy, decision‑making abilities, and systems thinking.
• Foster a culture of trust, candid feedback, and servant leadership.
• Lead by example in collaboration, curiosity, and continuous improvement.
• Cross‑Team Alignment
• Represent the team in Guilds and the Tech Lead forum.
• Ensure knowledge flows between teams and that decisions are consistent across the platform.
• Drive cross‑team collaboration to deliver integrated, end‑to‑end solutions.

Who You Are

• Passionate about exploring innovative technologies and expanding your skill set.
• Ambitious and committed to delivering top‑quality solutions for customers and Spirii.
• Ownership‑driven, with a strong sense of responsibility for your work.
• Excellent communicator, able to interact with all levels of the organization and external partners.
• Collaborative and supportive, fostering a positive and inclusive team environment.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• 6+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 2 years in a leadership role.
• Proven experience in developing microservices and cloud‑based solutions.
• Expertise in TypeScript or JavaScript (Node.js, Nest.js) and cloud environments like AWS.
• Familiarity with test‑driven development, test automation, and deployment in cloud infrastructure.
• Experience with ElasticSearch, queues, non‑SQL datastores, and high‑scale applications.
• Advantageous: Experience with Stripe, Mobilepay and Financial Flows.
• Advantageous: Experience with OCPI.

Benefits

It is important for us to create a healthy, diverse, fun, and creative working environment, so besides all the basic benefits, we also focus a lot on social activities, flexible working hours and a good work life balance.

• Flexible Work Environment: Enjoy a collaborative, inclusive, and open workplace designed to fit your needs and support work‑life balance.
• Competitive Package: A competitive salary, an 11% company pension plan, and a comprehensive benefits package.
• Time to Recharge: Benefit from 32 paid vacation days and paid parental leave to focus on what matters most.
