About Unleash Unleash is an open source feature management platform that helps development teams experiment faster while reducing the risks of releasing software in production. Our mantra is “Create with freedom. Release with confidence.”Modern software teams move fast, but releasing safely is still one of the hardest parts of building software. That is why we created Unleash. Our platform allows teams to separate deployment from release, run controlled experiments, and roll out new functionality safely in production through feature flags, gradual rollouts, and experimentation.What started as an open source project on GitHub in 2015 became a company in Oslo in 2019. Today, Unleash is used by thousands of development teams worldwide, from startups to large enterprises running mission critical systems. We recently announced our Series B funding and continue to scale globally as a remote first company.As we grow, we are making a deliberate investment in engineering leadership. We are building a small group of experienced Team Leads who, alongside contributing hands on as engineers, will help develop the exceptional technical talent already inside the company. This role is designed for senior engineers who care deeply about both technical quality and creating the conditions for a team to thrive.About the position As a Team Lead at Unleash, you will split your time roughly 70/30 between hands on engineering and leading a squad of four engineers.You will stay close to the platform and the code while also taking real ownership of your squad’s growth, delivery, and team health. This is not a role where leadership happens separately from engineering. We believe the best coaching happens close to the work itself through collaboration, feedback, technical discussions, and shared ownership of outcomes.You will work on a modern platform built around TypeScript, React, Node.Js, PostgreSQL,
and AWS.Responsibilities As a Software Engineer Product development Take end to end ownership of features from discovery and design to deployment and improvements in productionWork closely with product managers and designers to understand developer needs and shape solutions earlyContribute to product discovery through technical input, prototypes, and experimentationTechnical excellence Maintain high engineering standards across frontend and backend systemsImprove reliability, scalability, performance, and maintainability of the platformContribute to architectural discussions and long term technical directionReliability and operations Apply site reliability engineering principles to improve stability and reduce operational overheadHelp automate operational workflows and improve developer experience internallySupport investigation of production incidents and customer impacting issues when neededAs a Team Lead Coaching and people development Coach the engineers in your squad through day to day collaboration aligned to what they are actually buildingSupport each engineer’s growth through feedback, and development conversationsCreate an environment where engineers feel supported, challenged, and able to do their best workTeam leadership Drive performance reviews and contribute to promotion and compensation discussions together with the engineering directorAct as hiring manager for your squad, from defining needs to evaluating candidates and making hiring decisionsHelp maintain a healthy balance between autonomy, alignment, and ownership.Organizational contribution Work closely with the other team leads and engineering leadership to improve process, culture, and engineering effectiveness across the organizationHelp shape how engineering leadership evolves as the company continues to scaleWho we believe you are You are a senior engineer with strong technical instincts who has reached a point in your career where leading people feels just as meaningful as solving hard technical problems.You have spent years building software and going deep technically.
