As the Development Team Lead for HiredScore Sourcing Products, you will manage and mentor a cross-functional team of Full-Stack Engineers, Backend Engineers, and QA Automation Specialists.
Your team's core mission will be to translate AI/ML insights into seamless, scalable features that drive efficiency in recruiter workflows-specifically through resurfacing past applicants, prospects, and internal talent. You will own the entire development lifecycle for your products, from core API implementation to deploying user-facing applications and integration layers (web UIs, RPA/workflows, MS Teams bots)
Key Responsibilities:
Lead, mentor, and grow the diverse engineering team, ensuring effective collaboration between backend, full-stack, and QA functions. Drive best practices in development, code quality, and delivery speed.
Design, document, and oversee the implementation of scalable, reliable, and secure systems, ensuring seamless integration between backend AI services and the user-facing product layers.
Ensure the team maintains a strong quality and automation culture by providing strategic direction to QA specialists and upholding high standards for testing and product stability.
Drive development across the full spectrum of product surfaces: APIs (GraphQL/REST), Web Applications (React/Angular/Vue), and specialized engagement layers.
Ensure efficient consumption of AI outputs by downstream systems, particularly through robust queue-based architectures (like RabbitMQ) and workflow automation (RPA).
Partner closely with Product Management, Data Science, and other engineering teams to translate business requirements into technical execution.
Requirements: Basic qualification:
Minimum of 2 years of experience managing and leading a software engineering team, specifically in an environment with cross-functional roles (e.g., managing both backend and frontend specialists).
Minimum of 5 years of hands-on experience in software development, engineering, or a related technical role.
Strong experience in backend development using Python/Node.JS
Demonstrated experience working with messaging queues for high-throughput, asynchronous processes. Experience with RabbitMQ is a significant advantage.
Proven ability to drive development across the full stack, including professional experience with a modern front-end framework (e.g., React, Angular, or Vue).
Expert-level knowledge and practical experience designing and consuming various API architectures, specifically GraphQL and REST.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
Professional fluency in English (written and verbal) is required.
Other qualification:
Experience with Python Celery or similar frameworks for managing asynchronous and long-running background tasks.
Familiarity with Kubernetes (k8s) environments and GitOps tools like ArgoCD for continuous delivery and deployment.
Experience designing and implementing complex, multi-step data or processing pipelines using tools like Argo Workflows, Airflow, Prefect.
Direct experience building or maintaining solutions that involve MS Teams/Slack bots/agents and/or RPA/workflow automation systems.
Previous experience in the HR Technology (HR Tech), Talent Acquisition, or Enterprise SaaS domain.
Proven experience in defining quality strategies, working with QA teams, and driving CI/CD pipelines.
This position is open to all candidates.
