Description du poste

We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join our EMEA Engineering team in France (remote).

What does a Lead Software Engineer at CoderPad do?

As a Lead Software Engineer at CoderPad, you'll design, build, and ship features across our full stack - taking ownership of complex technical problems end to end and raising the engineering bar for the EMEA team. You'll combine hands-on coding with technical leadership: driving architecture decisions, backlog grooming and planning with the Product Manager, making sure what we ship is reliable, scalable, and a pleasure for developers to use.

As the global leader in the technical interview space (4,000+ customers in 165+ countries) it is our goal as a Engineering team to build and scale the products that power millions of technical interviews and assessments worldwide.

This role is located in France and works standard CET / CEST hours, collaborating asynchronously with our distributed EMEA and US teams.

What you'll be doing

• Design and develop new full-stack features (React / TypeScript on the frontend, Java, Node.js, or Ruby on the backend) in collaboration with the Product Manager and the designer.

• Use AI coding assistants and agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) as a core part of your workflow - to accelerate feature delivery, automate repetitive engineering tasks, and offload boilerplate so you can focus on design and review.

• Contribute to architectural and technical design decisions within the team.

• Write automated tests and ensure code quality through code reviews.

• Deploy and monitor your own features in production (GitLab, AWS, Kubernetes).

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of the team’s engineering practices.

• Partner with Product and other teams to scope, prioritise, and deliver impactful work.

What you should bring

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience, including senior or lead-level ownership

• Proficiency in at least one backend language (Java, Ruby, Node.js), a modern frontend framework (ideally React), and SQL. You don't need to master all technologies from day one.

• Solid experience designing scalable, reliable systems and conducting thorough code reviews.

• Comfortable working autonomously in a distributed, remote-first environment.

• Hands-on experience leveraging AI tools to ship faster - code generation, agentic workflows, scripting/automation, or building internal tooling on top of LLMs. We care about how effectively you use these tools, not which ones.

• Professional working proficiency in English.

Compensation

Compensation Statement

• Compensation for this role is base salary only (no variable component).

• Base salary range (in EUR): €65,000 - €75,000

• Exact salary is based on skills, experience, location, market ranges, and other compensation offered. The salary range does not include equity and company-wide benefits you may be eligible to receive.
