If you’re the kind of leader who still loves to build, architect, mentor, and elevate teams, this is your opportunity to make a defining impact.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of architecture, delivery, and people development. You’ll guide technical direction, contribute directly to core codebases, and champion a modern engineering culture that embraces AI‑powered development, continuous improvement, and high‑performance delivery.
As a working manager, you’ll own outcomes, shape engineering excellence, and coach a talented team to reach new levels of technical and architectural maturity.
What You’ll Be Doing

Contribute directly to core services, data pipelines, shared libraries, and platform enhancements.
Lead architecture reviews, technical design sessions, and long‑term technology planning.
Define and uphold engineering standards across code quality, testing, observability, performance, and security.
Drive adoption of AI‑assisted engineering, including:
AI‑powered code generation, refactoring, testing, and documentation
Coaching engineers on safe, effective AI usage
Introducing AI‑based quality checks and workflow accelerators
Evaluate and introduce new tools, frameworks, and technologies that elevate developer experience.
Identify technical risks, unblock engineers, and ensure delivery is fast, reliable, and scalable.
Collaborate with Staff and Principal Engineers to define shared architecture patterns and long‑term platform direction.
Team Management & People Development (40%)
Lead, coach, and develop a team of software engineers with clear goals and continuous feedback.
Run regular 1:1s, career development conversations, performance reviews, and promotion assessments.
Build a culture of ownership, autonomy, collaboration, and continuous learning.
Mentor engineers in:
System design and architectural thinking
High‑quality coding practices
Effective problem solving
AI literacy and productivity techniques
Partner closely with Product, Design, and Data teams to prioritise effectively and deliver meaningful outcomes.
Support recruitment, onboarding, and capability planning as the engineering organisation grows.
What You Bring
5+ years as a Senior, Staff, or Lead Engineer with strong hands‑on technical impact.
1–3+ years managing engineers or leading technical delivery teams.
Deep expertise in TypeScript/JavaScript, Node.js, modern backend/frontend engineering, and SQL.
Strong understanding of distributed systems, scalable architecture, cloud platforms, and production operations.
Proven ability to mentor and elevate engineers at multiple levels.
Experience driving architectural decisions and long‑term technical strategy.
Comfortable delivering complex workstreams in fast‑paced, product‑centric environments.
Excellent communication skills and the ability to simplify complex topics.
Who You Are
A self‑starter with strong ownership and accountability.
A pragmatic, empathetic leader who balances technical excellence with team wellbeing.
Passionate about AI‑accelerated engineering and modern developer tooling.
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and evolving business needs.
Why Join Expana? You’ll be joining a company where engineering excellence, innovation, and data intelligence are at the heart of everything we do. You’ll shape the future of our platform, influence long‑term architecture, and help build a world‑class engineering organisation from the inside out.
If you’re excited by the idea of leading while still staying close to the code — we’d love to hear from you.
