The ideal tech lead is a senior software engineer who oversees the development of projects and mentors a team of engineers. By joining Magna, you will build the future of token management with us by making crucial decisions in the design and implementation of software architecture that scales.

What you’ll do

Lead a pod of 3-5 engineers across the stack (frontend and backend)
Own the software architecture, data architecture, and technical designs, providing technical leadership and expertise along the way
Identify and mitigate technical risks
Ensure that technical debt is kept under control
Where appropriate, ensure code modularity in the code written by the team through peer code-reviews, to increase our team’s velocity and make our code infrastructure more scalable
Work closely with the product manager to ensure that the roadmap is feasible and deadlines are realistic
Review potential engineering candidates as we grow our footprint and scope

What we’re looking for

5+ years of software engineering, 2+ leading engineers and engineering initiatives
Experience working with B2B software applications, or apps used by tens of thousands of users
Familiarity with our tech stack (TypeScript, Next.js, Prisma/PostgreSQL, React, GraphQL)
A team leader, or a senior software engineer ready to step up!
Although we prefer New York-based candidates for a hybrid work setup, we'll consider fully remote candidates who can align reasonably with the EST timezone

Magna’s Tech Stack

Magna is a multi-chain dapp, and our stack includes TypeScript, Next.js, React and GraphQL, as well as the native languages for various blockchains (i.e. Solidity, Rust, Move).

Experience with any of these is nice to have, but not a requirement:

DevOps, infrastructure, or data analytics experience
Interfacing with smart contracts and blockchain via libraries (any blockchain).
Applications where security and integrity is extremely important (finance, fintech, government, etc.)
