Job description

Technical Team Lead - Growth Team

Software Development · Rotterdam

Our goal? To kick-start a true revolution within the accountancy sector. Help us introduce groundbreaking features that redefine industry standards.

What you will do

You will join our Growth Team as a Tech Lead. Within our development organization, this team focuses on building features that drive our commercial growth. Your mission is to build and optimize features that directly drive business growth, such as cross-sell and up-sell opportunities within the platform. You enable us to move fast, experiment with new revenue-driving features, and turn commercial insights into scalable technical solutions. As a Tech Lead you\'ll focus entirely on code quality, architectural integrity, and the successful delivery of our roadmap. You will stay hands-on by developing within your scrum squad while acting as the technical bridge between product and execution. This role allows you to stay dedicated to engineering, as all people-management responsibilities (such as career growth and 1-on-1s) are handled by our Software Development Managers.

• Technical authority within the "Trio" (Product Owner, Designer, and Tech Lead): ensure the product roadmap is technically feasible and optimized for long-term scalability.
• Delivery & roadmap: responsible for the technical delivery of the team, set priorities, manage the technical roadmap, and ensure milestones are met.
• Architecture & strategy: oversee the technical direction of the squad, identify potential improvements, and lead initiatives that push the stack (both .NET and Vue.js) forward.
• Hands-on development: lead by example, remain actively involved in the codebase, deliver high-performing features, and solve complex technical challenges with the team.
• Quality: safeguard engineering standards by conducting code reviews and ensuring the team produces readable, maintainable, and secure code.
• Cross-functional alignment: collaborate with other Tech Leads, CTO, and Software Development Managers to align goals with the broader architecture.
• Mentorship: mentor other developers, helping them sharpen technical skills and adopt best practices, without responsibility for formal HR or growth cycles.

What you will bring to the team

• At least 5+ years of experience in software development, with a mastery of the .NET ecosystem (C# and SQL Server) being a plus.
• Previous experience in a lead role or as a senior developer where you were responsible for technical roadmaps and delivery.
• A solid understanding of web, SPA, and component architecture, as well as backend design patterns and database optimization.
• You are passionate about writing clear, maintainable code and utilizing industry-standard practices and testing frameworks.
• You have a strong sense of ownership over the squad\'s output and know how to prioritize technical tasks to meet business goals.
• Solid knowledge of web security, cross-browser compatibility, and API development (RESTful).
• You are a strong communicator who can translate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders (PO/Design).

What\'s in it for you

• Personal development: A generous training budget available after probation for certifications, courses, or training to solidify technical expertise.
• Time off and flexibility: 28 vacation days (option to buy 5 extra days) and up to 5 weeks per year of remote work (Workation).
• Well-being & focus: Access to lifestyle coaching, healthy lunches, and initiatives contributing to well-being, including Lease-a-bike.
• Financial security: Competitive base salary with pension.
• Optimal workplace: The best hardware, including a Home-office budget for remote setup.
• Opportunities: Speed and autonomy of an innovative scale-up, backed by the Visma Group network.
• Team & culture: Team-building days and events in a diverse and international environment.
