About the role
We are hiring for a Lead Product Engineer to help shape the technical foundation of Workbrew as we scale. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys building systems directly, while also guiding engineering practices, architecture decisions, and technical direction across the organization.
This role is ideal for an engineer who naturally alternates between writing production code, reviewing architectural tradeoffs, mentoring other engineers, and raising the overall quality bar of a product engineering team.
We are looking for an experienced leader who cares deeply about excellence, efficiency, and security. This lead will support a small team of engineers, and report directly to the head of technology.
In this role, you will
- Lead by example. Operate as a player/coach who contributes directly to product development while helping the engineering organization make thoughtful technical decisions.
- Own architectural direction. Design systems and technical patterns that balance speed, reliability, scalability, and operational simplicity.
- Raise engineering standards through example. Introduce and reinforce best practices around testing, observability, deployment workflows, documentation, and code review culture.
- Bring security into the development process from the beginning. Help shape secure-by-default engineering practices across infrastructure, application development, authentication, authorization, and software supply chain security.
- Mentor engineers through collaboration. Pair on difficult problems, review design proposals, and help teammates grow in technical judgment and execution.
