The role

We're looking for a Staff Engineer / Tech Lead to join our Engineering team. In this role, you'll combine hands-on technical delivery with impact that extends beyond a single team: raising engineering standards, helping teams work through ambiguous problems, and supporting the growth of the engineers around you.

You'll work as part of a team on modernization efforts and new feature initiatives, including AI-related capabilities, and your focus and team assignment may evolve based on where the organization needs expertise most.

Impact in this role spans four areas: hands-on project delivery, engineering excellence across the wider backend, providing direction when problems are ambiguous, and contributing to the growth of the people around you.

This role tends to be the most rewarding for engineers who enjoy being a multiplier for the people around them: unblocking teams, shaping direction together, and growing others along the way, rather than working in isolation or waiting to be told exactly what to do next.

• Lead technical modernization efforts within your team while enabling delivery of new functionality, including AI-related features
• Raise engineering standards and practices across the backend, and help solve problems shared across multiple teams
• Help teams turn ambiguous, poorly defined problems into a clear plan of action when experience or confidence is lacking
• Contribute to the growth of engineers around you through mentoring, input into personal development plans, and recommendations on skills, resources, or courses
• Balance hands-on delivery with acting as an enabler for other engineers and processes, rather than simply directing others' work

What you bring

• Expert-level backend engineering skills in C# / .NET
• Solid experience with automated testing, DevOps practices, and working with databases
• A strong product mindset - understanding of the business and product context behind technical decisions
• Proven ability to work autonomously and collaborate as a peer with senior engineers, without needing tasks broken down for you
• Comfort with responsibilities beyond pure technical delivery, such as mentoring, cross-team collaboration, or representing the team on broader initiatives
• Strong communication skills and an Upper-intermediate (B2) or higher level of English

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience building or integrating AI-related features
• Experience with system design and architecture-level decision-making

What we offer

We highly value our people, so we will empower you with all the resources and support to help you reach your full potential.

For your best work

• Remote-first flexibility to shape your ideal workday
• Home workplace budget
• Resilient home budget for Ukraine-based teammates
• Resilient office in Kyiv & co-working expense coverage
• Individual IT budget for extra equipment
• Top-tier tech and AI-powered tools

For your growth

• Access to Ideals Academy with numerous courses
• Investment in external learning and development activities
• Guidance in Personal Development Plan creation
• Professional literature and subscriptions coverage
• Support of your passion as a speaker or writer
• Internal talent mobility opportunities

For your well-being

• Funding for sports competitions
• 20 business days of paid time off per year
• Unlimited health-related time-off

Extra perks

About the Role

This is a hybrid role based in Cherkasy, with regular office attendance.

At iForAI, we help companies put AI into real products. Our team builds and integrates AI systems: copilots, agent platforms, retrieval-backed assistants, and document and workflow automation, working side by side with customer teams.

We’re hiring a Lead Backend Engineer to help drive that work. This is a hands-on role. You’ll guide a small backend team of 2 to 4 engineers, own backend architecture across services, and build the systems that put LLMs and agents into production workflows.

AI is changing how engineering teams work. The leverage today isn’t in typing code; it’s in clear specification, good judgment, and careful verification. If you have a strong backend background and you’re curious about working with AI day to day, we’ll bring you up to speed to the agentic coding by using AI.

Responsibilities

• Lead and mentor a small backend team (2 to 4 engineers).
• Own backend architecture and AI integrations: prompt and context handling, retrieval, orchestration, tool/function calling, evaluation, and observability.
• Design and run reliable backend services that support real production workflows.
• Use AI across the full development cycle (requirements, design, code, testing, debugging, and documentation) and help the team build the same habits. We’ll train you on this side if it’s new.
• Work with PMs and customer teams to turn unclear problems into concrete, shippable work.
• Take part in code review, architecture review, and technical writing.
• Help keep engineering standards healthy: tests, CI/CD, releases, and learning from incidents.

• Take part in hiring and team growth.

   

Requirements

• Backend experience: 5+ years building production backend systems.
• AI coding tools: day-to-day experience with Codex, Claude Code, or similar.
• Node.js / TypeScript with experience in a framework like NestJS, Express, or Fastify (Next.js is a plus).
• Databases: comfortable with PostgreSQL or similar relational databases, and an ORM such as Prisma, TypeORM, or Drizzle.
• Caching and queues: working knowledge of Redis or a similar tool for caching and background jobs.

Do you want to make a significant contribution to the victory? Do you want to help win success on the frontline by applying AI to our nation’s drone fleet?

Occam Industries delivers autonomy to the battlefield. We are purely software; we partner with some of the most major OEMs and brigades.

If you want a senior role that still means being one of the best engineers in the business, this is it.

Your Mission

Lead our engineering team to build, integrate, and ship reliable autonomy software to the frontline at speed and scale.

What You’ll Own

• System architecture across our modular autonomy stack.
• Technical direction for the Pilot and Platform engineering teams.
• Hands-on engineering to solve the hardest problems. Expect to spend half of your time in the codebase.
• Working with Product, OEMs and brigades to turn frontline needs into things we can actually build and ship.
• Technical trade-offs across performance, reliability, hardware constraints and speed of delivery.
• Hiring the engineers we need to move faster.

What You Bring

• Deep hands-on engineering — you will need to be credible working in the codebase, not only above it.
• Experience owning system architecture across complex, hardware-adjacent software systems.
• A track record of driving engineering teams to ship, without relying on formal management authority.
• Comfort working closely with product and OEM stakeholders on real-world tradeoffs.
• A build-first mentality. You want to solve hard engineering problems, not manage them from a distance.
• Basic English required; fluent English is a plus.
• Based in Kyiv or within daily commuting distance.

What You Get

• Work that matters: Build products that directly strengthen Ukraine’s defence capability.
• Top-of-market compensation plus equity.
• A senior technical role designed to keep you close to the code and end users
• Direct influence over the architecture and product that drives Occam autonomy into combat.
• We are able to discuss reservations for critical candidates with significant experience.

How We Work

We value speed, judgement and ownership. If you prefer clear boundaries, slow decisions and layers of approval, OCCAM is probably not for you. We want people who build, solve hard problems and adapt when reality changes — not people who wait to be told what to do.

Interview Process

• Typically four stages, completed within a few weeks.
• Offer conditional on a background check by security services.

We like hitting the enemy. You do too? Join us.
