Full- Stack Team Lead

If you’ve engaged with a leading brand online, chances are you’ve already interacted with Taylor, our AI Agent.

At Notch, we’re building the future of customer experience — a platform that empowers brands to create autonomous AI agents across industries like e-commerce, SaaS, cybersecurity, gaming, and more.

We’re a fast-growing startup at the forefront of the AI revolution, helping companies scale smarter, cut costs, and deliver human-like customer experiences. Our platform already processes hundreds of thousands of conversations at any time, delivering customer support at superhuman speed and accuracy.

We’re looking for a hands-on Fullstack Team Lead to lead one of our core R&D teams.

This role is ideal for someone who is still a strong individual contributor, but also wants to lead people, shape architecture, and build a team. You’ll be responsible for owning a meaningful product area end-to-end — technically and organizationally.

This is not a pure management role. You are expected to write production code, lead by example, and take deep responsibility for delivery and quality.

• Lead a small, high-impact fullstack team (initially 3–6 engineers)
• Own architecture, design, and implementation of core product areas
• Make key technical decisions with a strong focus on scalability, reliability, and developer experience
• Mentor, coach, and grow engineers — technically and professionally
• Drive execution: break down complex problems, prioritize work, and ensure delivery
• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and other R&D teams
• Help shape engineering standards, best practices, and team culture
• Take part in hiring and building the next generation of Notch engineers
