Software Engineering Technical Lead, Remote across Europe

Are you an Engineering Lead who wants full ownership of production on a platform processing 50 million background jobs a day?

It is a bootstrapped SaaS platform providing CRM, analytics and automation, with a new autonomous AI agent product driving most of its growth.

€95,000 to €140,000 depending on experience, plus potential revenue share - Preference is B2B but they can work through a EoR too

  • Introductory call with me. You will be fully briefed before you speak to anyone
  • Interview with the CTO, 30 to 60 minutes. An introduction, then a live technical problem solving session built around a real problem the team has faced
  • Final conversation with the CEO, 30 to 60 minutes

Tech Stack: Ruby on Rails, Sidekiq, PostgreSQL, React, Electron, dedicated servers on Hetzner and OVHcloud

They will consider engineers who don't have Ruby experience as long as you are happy to learn it.

This is a bootstrapped business, five years trading, a great ARR, with an established customer base and no investors to answer to. The founders are both still hands on. They are hiring their first senior engineer outside the two of them.

  • A PostgreSQL database holding over a terabyte of data
  • Around 50 million background jobs a day through Sidekiq, and more than 36 billion processed to date
  • Everything running on one primary server, 48 vCPU and 192GB RAM, with a separate worker server
  • An autonomous AI agent product that has roughly doubled recurring revenue in the past few months

The next step is scaling all of that beyond a single primary server, with the monitoring, recovery and review standards a business this size should already have. That is where you come in.

The Role:

You will own day to day technical delivery and production operations, so the founders can focus on product and growth.

This is hands on. Diagnosing problems, writing and reviewing code, directing technical work and following it through to release. You will get production access and be accountable for keeping the platform secure, fast and recoverable.

You will lead a small, fully remote engineering team technically. Formal people management stays with the CTO. Unresolved priority conflicts go to the CEO.

What You Will Be Doing:

  • Owning production: uptime, performance, security, backups, disaster recovery and incident response
  • Owning PostgreSQL performance, safe production migrations, data retention and recovery, including how analytical workloads are separated and older data archived
  • Owning the scaling plan as the platform moves beyond its current single primary server setup
  • Keeping Sidekiq processing reliable at current volumes and designing for what comes next
  • Reviewing pull requests from a team working heavily with AI tooling, and setting the standards, tests and guardrails that keep large AI generated changes safe to ship
  • Owning production incident response during agreed working hours, with backup and out of hours responsibilities shared across the team
