Lead a diverse team of engineers in shaping the technical direction and delivery of high-quality software for a cloud-native observability platform.
Logz.io is a cloud-native observability platform that helps engineering teams monitor and troubleshoot their systems using logs, metrics, and traces. Our platform processes massive real-time data and integrates deeply with open-source tools like OpenSearch, Grafana, and Jaeger. Behind the product is a large TypeScript monorepo powering the application experience, alongside a rich ecosystem of Kotlin-based microservices that power our backend platform. About the Role
We’re looking for a full-stack team lead to lead the product application team, responsible for the user-facing platform and the services that power it. This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll lead a mixed team of remote and in-office engineers working across frontend and backend systems. You’ll shape the technical direction of the application, collaborate closely with platform teams, and stay actively involved in designing and building production systems. Your focus will be enabling the team to deliver high-quality software while maintaining strong engineering standards, clear technical direction, and a healthy team culture.
