Overview:
We are seeking a highly skilled, 100% hands-on Technical Team Lead to join a leading global enterprise. This role combines direct software development with technical leadership, requiring the ability to design, build, and deploy functional, cloud-based web applications while mentoring a team of entry-level engineers.

Technical capabilities and behavioral competencies are equally important, with an emphasis on curiosity, attention to detail, motivation to deliver high-quality outcomes, and the ability to coach and support team members.
Responsibilities:
Architect, build, and deploy robust web applications from scratch in a cloud-based environment.
Provide technical mentorship and guidance to entry-level engineers, leading by example through direct, hands-on coding.
Use AI coding assistants to optimize development workflows and build solutions that incorporate AI functionalities.
Write clean, scalable code and clearly communicate technical decisions, architecture choices, and problem-solving methodologies to technical stakeholders.
