Job description

Overview

The Tech Lead is a hands-on technical leader, a player-coach, who guides the architecture, design, and implementation quality of the Scrum team's deliverables. This role bridges the gap between product requirements and technical execution, ensuring the team builds scalable, maintainable solutions aligned with AssistRx's platform strategy. The Tech Lead writes code, mentors developers, removes technical blockers, and drives engineering best practices. The player-coach model is intentional and non-negotiable: the Tech Lead is an active contributor to the codebase, not a pure manager.

• Mentor and coach team members on engineering best practices, design patterns, and new technologies
• Own technical decisions around tooling, frameworks, and infrastructure within platform guidelines
• Troubleshoot production issues and lead root cause analysis for defects and incidents, ensure RCAs produce documented process changes, not just ticket closures
• Partner with the Data Architect and other Tech Leads to ensure cross-team architectural consistency
• Support deployment activities, ensuring quality gates are met before production release
• For Salesforce configuration streams: enforce that all changes go through the Dev
