Employer description & source details
As a Technical Lead you are the engineering owner of your team’s delivery. You are accountable for what ships, when it ships and how well it is built. You set the technical direction, you hold the bar on engineering practices, and you stay hands-on in the code — typically 40–60% of your week. This is explicitly not a people management role. You will not own headcount, performance reviews, compensation or career ladders — your Engineering Manager does. You own the technical and delivery outcome of the team, and the Engineering Manager owns the people. You operate Strong data modelling and SQL skills on PostgreSQL (or equivalent), plus practical experience with caching (Redis) and query/performance tuning at scale. Maintain a live view of technical debt in your domain and negotiate a steady share of roadmap capacity to pay it down. Coordinate with tech leads in adjacent domains (OTR, Appointment Manager, Platform, AI Agents) on shared contracts and cross-team dependencies. Experience with ocean and multimodal logistics data — container and booking milestones, bills of lading, carrier and NVOCC feeds, terminal and port data, AIS/vessel tracking, customs events. Integration experience with enterprise systems of record: SAP, Oracle, other ERPs, OMS, WMS and TMS platforms, over APIs, flat files and EDI. Experience in a high-growth product organisation with enterprise customers.
Extracted skills: java, go, sql, postgresql, redis, aws
