About the role
Technical Team Lead, LearnWith.AI

- TeachTap: AI that recreates historical personalities in a TikTok-inspired educational format

You define quality expectations, create technical patterns, conduct code reviews that focus on learning, and support engineer development.

- Conducting pull request reviews with comprehensive, educational commentary
- Developing engineers through pair programming and constructive feedback
- Organizing technical initiatives and decomposing feature requirements
- Defining quality benchmarks and ensuring consistent team adherence
What You Won’t Be Doing
- Handling people operations (recruitment, termination, evaluations, career development discussions)
- Contributing to infrastructure or platform-layer systems
- Attending prolonged or excessive meetings
- Designing systems without hands-on coding involvement
Basic Requirements
- At least 5 years of full-stack development experience
- At least 2 years in a lead role (reviewing others' work, mentoring engineers, establishing team practices)
