We are looking for an exceptional Tech Lead Manager to lead a team of world-class engineers building core Kalepa functionalities. We are looking for a deeply technical leader with significant experience in full-stack engineering who is excited to be hands-on and a ‘player-coach’.

As part of the Core UX team, you will focus on refining existing product functionality to deliver an exceptional user experience. Your work will center on ensuring consistency across the product, maintaining a cohesive look and feel, and implementing performance improvements that directly impact end users.
