Your Mission at Yotpo As an Engineering Team Lead, you are the technical anchor of a cross-functional product team. Your mission is to cultivate a high-velocity engineering culture where end-to-end ownership is the norm and shipping to production multiple times a day is the standard.

Operating within a Product Operating Model, you will lead a team of engineers in a high-performing environment, empowering them to leverage a modern, diverse tech stack to solve complex problems. Your goal is to build an engine of impact where innovation moves fast, quality remains high, and engineers are autonomous owners of their craft.

Key Responsibilities

• Delivery Management: Own the team's delivery lifecycle. You will drive predictable shipping cadence while managing technical debt and ensuring that velocity never comes at the expense of stability.
• Team Leadership & Growth: Mentor and coach engineers at all levels, fostering their professional growth, conducting performance reviews, and building a cohesive, psychologically safe team environment.
• Operational Excellence & Quality: Champion a culture of craftsmanship. Establish high standards for code quality, testing, monitoring, and incident response, ensuring your systems are robust, secure, and reliable.
• Product Strategy & Discovery: Partner with Product and Design to lead Continuous Discovery, validating ideas quickly and ensuring the team builds solutions that drive measurable business outcomes.
• Technical Direction: Guide the architectural vision and technical decision-making of the team, balancing immediate product needs with long-term system health and scalability.
