Your role
Were looking for a Lead Engineer (f/m/x) to lead one of our engineering pods and take ownership of a core module of our platform.

As a Lead Engineer, you will lead a pod of 2-4 engineers and take end to end ownership of the modules your team is responsible for. Most of your time will be spent hands-on: shipping code and architecting larger features. Beyond the code, youll partner closely with your Product Manager to clarify product requirements, remove obstacles, and guide technical decisions, while also shaping our broader technical capabilities and engineering culture.

Our engineering culture combines high velocity (5-10 production deployments per day from our TypeScript monorepo) with true enterprise scale: hundreds of millions of rows in Postgres, and calculations certified against e.g. ISO 14064. Balancing speed with that level of rigor is one of the core challenges of this role.

What we offer
- A highly competitive compensation package with an attractive equity package to participate in Tansos growth.
- Hybrid working model that combines the benefits of onsite collaboration with the flexibility needed.
- A company-contributed pension plan to support long-term financial security.
- Yearly budget to support ongoing professional development.
- Sponsored access to EGYM Wellpass to prioritize your wellbeing with thousands of options.
- Exclusive discounts that help you save on a wide range of everyday brands, services, and experiences.

Our team
Were a diverse group of people, and that diversity is what makes us great. We bring unique perspectives to everything we do and are always eager to learn from each other. We work in cross-functional teams to tackle ambitious challenges, actively seek feedback and be the best versions of ourselves.
