**Lead Engineer – Full Stack** **What the role is all about:**
We’re looking for a **Lead Engineer (5–9 years’ experience)** who acts as the technical anchor for a squad. This role is hands-on and execution-heavy, with accountability for delivering complex features, shaping solutions at a subsystem level, and ensuring high standards of quality, performance, and reliability in production.
The Lead Engineer operates primarily as a **strong tech enthusiast** , leading through technical depth rather than people management. Success in this role is defined by strong ownership of code and systems, pragmatic design decisions, predictable delivery, and the ability to lift the technical capability of the team through mentoring and example.
This role has strong visibility and impact, particularly in building and evolving REA’s advertising platforms and data-driven products used at scale.
