Job description

Flywheel's suite of digital commerce solutions accelerate growth across all major digital marketplaces for the world's leading brands. We give clients access to near real-time performance measurement and improve sales, share, and profit. With teams across the Americas, Europe and APAC, we offer a career with real impact, endless growth opportunities and the support you need to be the best you can be.

As an Engineering Lead, you will play a key role in driving technical execution and innovation within our Engineering team. You will work closely with Engineering Leadership to build scalable, high-performing systems while mentoring engineers and fostering a collaborative development culture.

In this role, you will support a core platform and provide AI tools to advertising creatives across the company. The platform allows agency users to quickly and seamlessly create AI content that is used by their clients. As an Engineering Lead, you will be leading the development efforts of a small team of engineers, utilizing Python and ReactJS / Typescript to bring a great experience to our users.

What you'll do:

• Provide technical guidance and hands-on leadership to a team of engineers focused on AI solutions.
• Collaborate with Engineering, Product, and Design teams to develop scalable, maintainable, and extensible solutions.
• Actively contribute to system architecture, design discussions, and code reviews to ensure engineering excellence.
• Define development plans, implement best practices, and continuously improve team processes.
• Help mentor and support engineers at various career stages, fostering a high-performing team culture.
• Get your hands into the codebase, building features and debugging issues with the rest of the team.

Who you are:

• 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, with 1-2 years of leadership or mentorship experience.
• Strong experience working with Python, FastAPI, ReactJS, and Docker.
• Solid understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including systems architecture, algorithms, object-oriented programming, and containerization.
• Experience working with cloud platforms such as GCP, AWS, or Azure.
• Passionate about solving complex technical challenges and improving development workflows.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate cross-functionally.
• Deep experience working in an agile environment (Scrum is a plus).

Working at Flywheel

We are proud to offer all Flywheelers a competitive rewards package and unparalleled career growth opportunities and a supportive, fun and engaging culture.

• We have office hubs across the globe where team members can go to feel productive, inspired, and connected to others - team members go into Hub Offices 3x a week.
• Flexible vacation time.
• Great learning and development opportunities.
• Benefits that help you live your best life.
• Parental leave and benefits.
• Volunteering opportunities.
• If you’re looking to connect with teammates on a topic of inclusion and identity, chances are there’s an ERG for that.

Every role starts the same, an introductory call with someone from our Talent Acquisition team. We will be looking for company and values-fit as well as your professional experience; there may be some technical role-specific questions during this call.

Every role is different after the initial call, but you can expect to meet several people from the team 1:1 and there might be further skill assessments in the form of a Take Home Assignment/Case Study Presentation or Pair Programming/Live Coding exercise depending on the role. In your initial call, we will walk you through exactly what to expect the process to be.
