Job Title: Sr Engineering Lead

Location: NYC, NY - Hybrid Onsite

Duration : Longterm Contract

About the Role:

We’re looking for a hands-on Tech Lead to guide the technical delivery of a strategic internal application for one of the world’s top private equity firms. The project involves rapid design-build sprints to deliver modular dashboards and workflows that scale across asset classes.

 

You’ll lead a globally distributed engineering team, working closely with product managers, designers, and client stakeholders. This is a hybrid role based in New York, with partial on-site presence.

 

You’ll be responsible for both execution and technical oversight — helping shape a scalable frontend component architecture, and integrating with serverless backend services (AWS Lambda, Fargate).

 

Your Responsibilities:

  • Lead the design and implementation of micro-apps using React, backed by Node.js/Python services
  • Architect and own backend logic using serverless functions (Lambda) and containerized services (Fargate)
  • Partner with Product and Design to translate business needs into scalable, high-quality software
  • Establish and enforce code quality, testing, and deployment standards
  • Guide a distributed engineering team, reviewing code and supporting onboarding of new devs
  • Identify reusable frontend/backend components and help establish a design-build library
  • Maintain high development velocity while ensuring robust infrastructure integration
  • Act as the technical point of contact for client engineering teams

 

What We’re Looking For:

  • 6+ years of fullstack development experience (React, Node.js and/or Python)
  • Experience leading technical delivery across distributed product teams
  • Strong knowledge of AWS serverless architecture: Lambda, Fargate, API Gateway
  • Familiar with containerized development, CI/CD pipelines, and platform-level routing
  • Skilled in translating technical complexity into clear direction and action
  • Comfortable working in a hybrid on-site/remote setting with executive stakeholders
  • Strong communication and mentoring skills

Nice to Have

  • Background in enterprise, SaaS, or financial tools
  • Experience setting up design systems or component libraries
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, SSO, JWT authentication, and platform authorization patterns
