[Hiring] Team Lead @CDQ AG

Role Description

We are a product company – we build and continuously develop our own Master Data Management platform. This gives us a stable working environment and provides our people with a genuine opportunity to influence the shape and direction of the solutions we build. Instead of working on short-term projects for different clients, you will have the opportunity to contribute to a product over the long term and see the impact of your work.

We are looking for an experienced Team Lead (Java) who combines strong people leadership skills with deep technical expertise. As a Team Lead, you will support and develop your team members while taking responsibility for the technical quality of the systems your team builds and operates.

This is a broad and comprehensive role, made possible by the way our teams are structured:

• Our Team Leads work with small, 3–5-person teams.
• Very limited number of meetings, typically around 2–3 hours per week in total.
• Allows you to spend most of your time working with your team, making technical decisions and supporting people’s development.

We expect you to have a very good understanding of your team’s technology stack, the ability to organise and coordinate the team’s work, and confidence in making technical decisions. Your impact will extend beyond your own team, including collaboration with other teams to ensure that everyone remains focused on delivering value.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in backend development using modern Java technologies, several years of professional experience, and experience mentoring, leading or coordinating engineers. We are looking for a team-oriented person who values collaboration, knowledge sharing and collective problem-solving. A genuine interest in data and databases will be a strong advantage.
