Description
About Netcraft
Netcraft is the global leader in cybercrime detection and disruption. We’re a trusted partner for three of the four largest companies in the world and many large governments. We've blocked over 225 million cyber-attacks to date, and we take down around 33% of the world's phishing attacks.
Our purpose and passion are focused on just one thing: protecting the world from cybercrime.
That passion shapes how we work, too. We’re proud of our talented team and the value each person brings, and we’ve built a workplace where people feel supported and inspired. From strong benefits and wellness programs to meaningful collaboration and team connection.
The role
We’re looking for a Frontend Engineering Team Lead to lead an established frontend team with responsibility for a key client-facing product within Netcraft’s portfolio. The project includes a modern JS-based web application and several supporting Golang APIs developed and managed by the team. You’ll be a technical leader with expertise across this stack, with the commercial acumen to understand how to manage delivery in an agile context. You will lead a high-impact group of engineers from the front, contributing code, demonstrating best practice, and managing an exciting delivery roadmap.
You’ll be:
Working with product and design colleagues to assimilate feature delivery into a comprehensive and compelling roadmap against which your team can execute;
Used to acting with autonomy, taking the initiative to solve problems and recognising the importance of adhering to demanding delivery timelines;
Managing requirements from prominent stakeholders and customers;
Prioritising, refining and sequencing the team’s workflow while retaining a significant proportion of your time for individual contribution;
Deeply embedded in conceiving and executing engineering solutions, creating performant systems and services to delight our customers;
Upholding high engineering standards with a demonstrable commitment to code quality, a test-driven approach and a modern continuous integration/continuous deployment delivery flow;
Well-versed in how AI-first development techniques can materially boost productivity; and
Responsible for maintaining and managing a performant team of talented and enthusiastic engineers.
What you’ll need to be successful
Strong and demonstrable leadership skills, with a constructive attitude to problem solving and the ability to context switch;
Distinguished engineering background across all aspects of the modern Javascript ecosystem, including Typescript, NextJS, Tailwind CSS, Vite, Tanstack Query and Playwright;
A demonstrable track record of taking projects to production;
Experience working with AWS in a Kubernetes-based deployment environment;
Interest in optimising the Software Development Life Cycle;
Excellent communication skills - the ability to distil technical ideas to stakeholders and motivate a team;
Experience leading, developing and mentoring engineers; and
Experience interviewing and hiring engineers and building effective teams through continual improvement.
Bonus points if you have:
A history of successfully creating and delivering both greenfield and brownfield projects;
Strong Golang development skills, particularly in backend-for-frontend services; and
Experience working with or supporting front-end design systems, especially with component libraries like Storybook.
