Senior Engineering Lead | $85K-$105K USD + Bonus + Equity + Remote | Award Winning AI Marketing SaaS Company

As Senior Engineering Lead, you will own the technical execution and scalability of our client’s platform while remaining deeply hands-on. You will lead a small team of senior engineers, set technical standards, and ship production code daily.

You will be responsible for balancing speed and stability, integrating AI deeply into both the product and engineering workflows, and ensuring the platform can scale reliably as usage grows.

Responsibilities

• Lead and mentor a high-performing team of senior engineers.
• Spend the majority of your time writing and reviewing production code.
• Architect, build, and ship AI-driven features at speed.
• Integrate AI into engineering workflows, including coding, reviews, and monitoring.
• Drive best practices across clean code, testing, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Maintain platform stability, scalability, and performance as the product grows.
• Collaborate closely with product and leadership on technical priorities and roadmap.
• Set engineering standards that enable rapid delivery without sacrificing quality.

• 7-10+ years of experience with PHP, Laravel, and relational databases (MySQL or PostgreSQL).
• Experience with modern front-end frameworks, preferably Angular.
• Experience leading agile engineering teams while remaining highly hands-on.
• Deep experience building and scaling production SaaS platforms.
• Hands-on experience building AI-integrated systems, including RAG architectures and vector databases.
• Demonstrated ability to ship quickly while maintaining stability and performance.
• Strong technical judgment and a builder mindset, not a pure people-manager profile.
• Must be able to work in a fast-paced environment with the ability to prioritize, multitask, perform well under pressure, meet deadlines, and wear multiple hats.
• Excited to work in a startup environment; you have a track record of being adaptable to changing priorities in a fluid, high-growth environment.
