How you can help make a better world of work

Culture Amp is a rapidly growing company empowering our customers to build Culture First companies. Our market-leading, category-defining Engagement product has been the engine of our success. In 2019 we added an award winning performance management solution to our portfolio. These two products together enable us to deliver highly differentiated, powerful and industry-leading capabilities to our customers. 

We are looking for an experienced Team Lead to lead our Data Services team in our Engage Product Camp (Camp’s are what we call our product teams). The Engage Data Services team is responsible for building and supporting a stable, scalable and future proof backbone of data that will help connect and grow the Engage platform. This role is a key part of enabling us to scale from helping improve the world of work for 25 million to 100 million people.

This new team will own the design and execution of building out a new data publishing platform. Taking learnings from our past endeavors you will help shape the future of how we publish and deliver survey data to the rest of our Engage and the Culture Amp platform.

As part of the Engage Camp, you will have the support of a group of experienced technical leaders who are already leveraging areas such as serverless, event sourcing and distributed event-driven microservices to evolve our overall technical architecture.

This is a Team Lead role that consists of three key areas: People Leadership, Technical Leadership and Delivery. You will lead your engineers by helping to solve complex problems and remove blockers so they can do their best work!

Software Engineering at Culture Amp is an inclusive practice distributed across cross-functional, lightweight Agile teams, which are remote-friendly, and all of which embrace flexible work arrangements. You will be surrounded by talented engineers, and a cross-functional team including product management, design and delivery. 

In part of this team of amazing humans, 

You will 

• Design innovative technical solutions which balance tradeoffs to deliver on business needs.
• Clearly communicate technical solutions with your team, peers, and other stakeholders.
• Mentor and develop a team of engineers, fostering their growth into future technical leaders.
• Prioritize the product roadmap, sequence initiatives, and share timelines with stakeholders.
• Collaborate across a cross-functional team to work out and achieve technical and product vision goals

You have 

• Solid understanding of systems architecture and programming, preferably in Ruby.
• Experience building interactive React applications, with proficiency in Typescript and a grasp of responsive design.
• This team will be building infrastructure to publish data to a centralised Kafka cluster - experience with Kafka would be highly desirable, but not essential. 
• Experience managing stakeholders and leading engineers, complemented by strong written and verbal communication skills.

You are

• A technical leader who can balance hands on technical skills whilst empowering and coaching engineers.
• A full-stack engineer who is comfortable contributing to both the front-end and back-end codebases.
• Open to receiving feedback and giving feedback to help others grow.
