About the team
From the very beginning, we created a modern, cloud-native tech platform (based on Google Cloud) adhering to the industry’s highest standards in terms of development and operation processes. Our front-end is written in Typescript with React and our back-end in Go, in the form of loosely coupled docker-containerized microservices, well decoupled via RESTful APIs and pub-sub queues, and isolated behind different API gateways. Those containers are orchestrated using Kubernetes, instrumented with Datadog. Our CI/CD pipelines are automated using Google Cloud Build and Codefresh and our infrastructure is managed using Pulumi.
Several major tech projects are progressing in parallel at a high delivery pace. Structured by squads, the tech teams are working on different products and nesto experiences based on strong algorithms and AI to meet business objectives.
As the Team Lead, you will lead and manage a team of software developers, ensuring efficient project execution, high-quality deliverables, and effective collaboration across cross-functional teams. You will provide mentorship, remove roadblocks, and drive the team’s focus on impactful projects while promoting a culture of continuous improvement and employee growth.
What you’ll be doing
- Direct and manage a team of developers, providing guidance, support, and mentoring to ensure team success.
- Proactively identify and eliminate obstacles for the team, thus fostering a productive and efficient work environment.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure projects are delivered on time while maintaining our quality standards.
- Contribute to the company’s technical strategy and ensure our technical infrastructure is scalable, robust, and secure.
- Develop and implement training and mentorship programs for developers at all levels;
- Guide the team towards high-impact projects, aligning their efforts with organizational objectives.
- Conduct code reviews, offer constructive feedback, and provide guidance on best practices.
- Contribute to establishing a culture of development excellence, quality, and technical curiosity.
- Lead the development of complex technical projects and ensure technical excellence is maintained throughout the development process;
- Cultivate an inclusive and supportive team environment where individuals can thrive and enhance their skills.
Who we’re looking for
- Over 7 years of experience as a Back-End Software Developer (GoLang, a strong asset).
- Leadership skills, demonstrating the ability to guide and mentor team members.
- Strong understanding of best practices in software engineering, including design patterns, testing methodologies, and agile development processes.
- Proficient in producing quality and performance metrics across the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
- Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to proactively identify and resolve obstacles for the team.
- Demonstrated ability to prioritize and manage multiple projects simultaneously, focusing on key initiatives.
- Passion for software development and a track record of continuous learning and growth.
What we offer
- Contribute directly to shaping the experience that modernizes the Canadian mortgage industry.
- Take advantage of nesto’s employee mortgage program that provides our employees with the best, exclusive, preferred low rates.
- Benefit from a generous time-off policy including 4 weeks vacation per year.
- Enjoy a premium benefits plan fully paid by nesto, including a top-class insurance plan and unlimited access to telemedicine and mental health service, for you and your family from day 1.
- Access to an annual health and wellness budget.
