As a Lead Full Software Engineer, you'll play a critical role in designing, building, and scaling modern data and application architectures for our clients. You’ll lead technical teams and partner with stakeholders across disciplines to deliver high-impact solutions—leveraging your deep expertise in React, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and BigQuery to architect end-to-end platforms that are as elegant as they are effective. 

You’re not just a coder—you’re a builder, a leader, and a translator between business needs and technical execution. You’re excited by the opportunity to guide both the vision and the implementation of transformative technology solutions. 

What You’ll Do 

• Architect and develop full-stack solutions that deliver measurable business value, with a strong focus on cloud-native applications using GCP. 
• Design and implement scalable front-end experiences using React, integrating seamlessly with backend services and data layers. 
• Build and optimize data pipelines leveraging BigQuery and other GCP-native tools for analytics, AI/ML, and real-time data needs. 
• Lead and mentor high-performing technical teams across architecture, development, and delivery. 
• Act as the technical lead in cross-functional client engagements, driving solutioning from concept through production deployment. 
• Establish and enforce best practices in coding, security, testing, and DevOps across projects. 
• Collaborate closely with data scientists, analysts, and business stakeholders to align technology solutions with business goals. 

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with 3+ years in an architecture or technical leadership role. 
• Proven expertise in React (hooks, state management, performance tuning) and building responsive, accessible UIs. 
• Deep hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform, especially BigQuery and other OLAP and OLTP data sets. 
• Strong proficiency in back-end development (Node.js, Python, or similar), API design, and microservices architecture. 
• Experience designing systems that handle large-scale data ingestion, transformation, and analytics. 
• A strategic mindset and the ability to translate business challenges into scalable tech solutions. 
• Comfortable working in agile environments, with a bias for action and a focus on delivering value fast. 
• Excellent communication skills and a track record of leading technical teams and mentoring engineers. 

Nice to Have 

• Experience with Looker, dbt, or other modern data stack tools. 
• Familiarity with AI/ML workflows on GCP. 
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines, Terraform, or Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
