דרושים Team Lead בתל אביב

Optibus is looking for a highly capable and curious engineer ready for a meaningful next step. This role is designed for strong technical professionals who want to expand their impact—leading complex technical work, influencing design decisions, and shaping how high-quality software is built, while gradually growing into broader leadership.

You will work on a large-scale, production-grade system with real-world impact, tackling challenging engineering problems and helping evolve both the codebase and engineering practices. You’ll take your first steps into technical leadership by supporting and guiding a small team of engineers, while remaining hands-on in development. This role is ideal for a senior developer who enjoys helping others grow and wants to gradually build leadership skills.

A rare opportunity to take real ownership of complex, high-impact systems, grow from a senior engineer into a technical leader, and work on AI-driven technology that shapes cities and affects millions of people worldwide.

What You’ll Work On

• Own & Influence: Take ownership of key parts of a complex, high-impact system and lead technical decisions end to end.
• Build at Scale: Work hands-on across a modern full-stack stack (Python, TypeScript, Node.js, React, Kubernetes) on real production systems.
• Solve Hard Problems: Tackle non-trivial engineering challenges while evolving architecture and improving code quality.
• Innovate with AI: Apply AI-driven tools and practices to boost development speed, reliability, and engineering excellence.

What We’re Looking For

• Engineering Excellence: A strong engineer with proven ability to solve complex problems in real production systems.
• Hands-On Impact: Solid experience with modern stacks (Python, TypeScript, Node.js, React, Kubernetes) and pragmatic engineering judgment.
• Ownership Mindset: Comfortable taking responsibility, improving existing codebases, and making smart technical trade-offs.
• Ready for the Next Step: Motivated to grow into a broader technical leadership role and significantly increase impact.
