Inception-1

Engineering Lead (Frontend / Mobile — React, React Native)

We’re building several product engineering teams that will own AI-first products from our portfolio. Great teams require great leaders so we‘re on the lookout for engineering leaders to lead the teams.
In this role, you’ll own delivery for a cross-functional squad, spending ~50% on hands-on coding and ~50% on team leadership and delivery management.

 

What you’ll do

  • Own delivery end-to-end - be accountable for turning product and business goals into shipped, reliable engineering outcomes — with clear scope, timelines, and quality bar.
  • Lead technical decisions - set technical direction, make pragmatic architecture trade-offs, and ensure solutions match current business needs, not abstract “best practices”.
  • Set the engineering culture bar - build a culture of end-to-end accountability, continuous delivery, and operational ownership — where engineers ship often, own what they build in production, and take responsibility for quality early.
  • Drive ownership and accountability - help the team take responsibility for outcomes, surface risks early, and resolve problems at the right level.
  • Partner cross-functionally - work closely with Product, Marketing, and other stakeholders to align priorities, manage dependencies, and make trade-offs explicit.
  • Grow strong engineers - coach engineers in technical judgment, ownership, and execution, raising the overall bar of the team.
     

Tech snapshot

  • Mobile: React Native (cross-platform iOS & Android)
  • Backend: Ruby or Node.js (another product team)
  • Architecture: Service-oriented backend supporting mobile clients
  • Practices: automated tests, safe rollouts, feature flags, trunk based development, continuous delivery.
     

What you bring

  • 6+ years in software engineering, including 1–3 years leading people or acting as a de-facto lead.
  • Strong frontend engineer who is comfortable across the stack and curious about backend internals.
  • Product thinking: you care about business impact, not just code.
  • Excellent communication; comfortable working with imperfect requirements and turning them into plans.
     

Why this is interesting

  • Ownership of user-facing experiences in AI products.
  • Influence on design–engineering collaboration.
  • Opportunity to shape frontend and mobile standards from scratch.
     

What we offer:

  • Flexible work schedule and remote-friendly culture.
  • Online services of a corporate doctor, and after the probationary period — health insurance in Ukraine.
  • 20 working days of paid vacation per year, unlimited sick leave.
  • All equipment necessary for work.
  • Compensation for the best courses on the market, corporate online meetups and lectures, a large library, business and management schools for employees.
