Descrição da oferta de emprego

Are you a hands‑on .NET engineering leader who still enjoys being close to the code, while owning technical direction and team delivery?

We’re looking for a Software Engineering Team Lead to join a high‑performing, product‑led engineering environment, building scalable, distributed systems used at scale.

This is not a pure management role; you’ll operate in a 50/50 split between hands‑on development and leadership, influencing architecture, driving technical decisions, and leading a team of engineers in a modern microservices environment.

The Role

You will take ownership of a cross‑functional engineering team, responsible for delivering high‑performance backend systems in a complex, high‑traffic environment.

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Has deep .NET expertise
• Enjoys designing scalable systems
• Has already led or mentored teams
• Wants to step into a role with real ownership and impact

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading a team of engineers (typically 4–7), owning delivery and technical direction
• Remaining hands‑on, contributing to system design and critical code paths
• Driving architectural decisions across distributed, microservices‑based systems
• Ensuring high standards across code quality, performance, and scalability
• Collaborating closely with Product, QA, and other engineering teams
• Mentoring and developing engineers, supporting career growth
• Identifying and solving complex technical challenges in production environments
• Improving engineering practices, tooling, and development workflows

Tech Environment

• .NET Core / C#
• Microservices & distributed systems
• Event‑driven architecture (RabbitMQ)
• REST APIs
• MS SQL Server
• Containerised environments (OpenShift / Kubernetes)

What We’re Looking For

• Strong background in backend engineering using .NET / C#
• Experience designing and building scalable, distributed systems
• Solid understanding of asynchronous and event‑driven architectures
• Proven experience leading or mentoring engineers
• Strong experience in system design and architecture
• Comfortable operating in a hands‑on leadership role (50/50)
• Experience in high‑performance or product‑led environments is a strong plus

Package

• Salary up to €70,000 (flexible for strong profiles)
• Performance bonus
• Monthly benefits package (incl. lifestyle/allowance support)
• Private healthcare
• Childcare support
• Additional perks

Important

• Must have full right to work in Portugal (no sponsorship available)
