[Hiring] Lead Engineer @CoachHub

Role Description

We are looking for an entrepreneurial, hands-on Lead Engineer to guide our core development team as we design, build and scale the next generation of our global coaching platform.

This is a unique opportunity to lead a highly collaborative, fast-paced team that is actively defining what it means to build an AI-first engineering culture. If you are a seasoned player-coach who wants to help lead the charge in establishing new engineering practices while keeping a direct, hands-on impact on our codebase, this is the role for you.

What You'll Do

• Empower & Mentor: Lead and grow a high-performing team of frontend, backend and full-stack engineers through active mentorship.
• Stay in the Code: Remain an active individual contributor, writing clean code, orchestrating AI agents and running technical reviews.
• Champion AI-First Engineering: Introduce agentic coding practices at a scale most engineers have never seen before, and help every engineer on the team make the most of them.
• Set Technical Direction: Maintain rigorous architectural standards and high quality as AI tools write a growing share of our codebase.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with Product and our Infrastructure counterparts (Data, DevOps and QA).

Your First Year

• Months 1 to 3, Deliver & Lead: Get to know our platform, team and clients, take ownership of the smooth delivery of an upgraded UI.
• By Month 6, Build the AI Foundations: Set up advanced agentic coding loops and autonomous agents that catch and fix bugs, accelerate client feedback loops and rapidly unlock the feature backlog.
• By Month 12, Take AI Beyond the Product: Collaborate across the business (Sales, Marketing, HR, Legal, Finance) to design and build custom AI-native tools that simplify work and drive efficiency across all of CoachHub.

Qualifications

• 8+ years in software engineering.
• Experience with robust software architecture and building it faster with AI.
• Daily use of tens of agents, Claude Code, Cursor or similar tools.
• At least the last 1–2 years in a fast-growing scale-up.
• Deep, production-level experience with TypeScript/JavaScript across the stack (React, Node.js, NestJS, Next.js).
• 2+ years of formal engineering leadership while staying hands-on with code within the last two years.
• Ability to move from strategic alignment with Product to rapidly debugging a critical system.
• Genuine enjoyment of experimentation with new tools and following breakthroughs in AI.
• Excellent written and spoken communication in English.

Requirements

• Deep Technical Roots.
• An AI-Native Mindset.
• Scale-Up Traction.
• Full-Stack Mastery.
• True Player-Coach.
• Thinker & Doer.
• Relentless Curiosity.
• English Fluency.

Benefits

• Access to your own certified coach, AIMY (our AI coach), and stretch opportunities beyond your role.
• 100% Remote Work: Enjoy the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere within your country of employment, with occasional opportunities to work from abroad, subject to approval.
• 30 days of annual leave, plus an additional Volunteering Day to give back to a cause you care about.
• Agile ways of working, recognition for fresh ideas.
• Mission-driven work that changes lives, not just business results.
