Technical Lead, LearnWith.AI (Remote) - $200,000/year USD

We're expanding platforms that support thousands of students and teams daily:

• TimeBack: Educational platform driving Alpha School's 2-hour learning model (99th percentile test results).
• Incept: Content generation platform producing all personalized educational content for multiple learning applications deployed at Alpha School.
• Crossover: AI-powered hiring platform handling tens of thousands of applicants monthly, staffing schools and companies worldwide.
  
  

You'll take ownership of one of these platforms and dedicate most of your time to building the most complex components of the codebase with a small team (3-5 strong engineers, no juniors). Your architectural choices dictate whether other teams can build new apps quickly, integrate seamlessly, and deliver value to students. Execute this well and you unlock significant leverage. Poor decisions generate integration chaos and destroy velocity across multiple teams.

You build and operate what you architect. You define quality standards and patterns for your platform. We're spec-driven: you design before implementing, always plan before building. High autonomy, no committees, no review boards. Small tight-knit team, where you're accountable for what you deliver.

What You Will Be Doing

• Technical Leadership: Drive strategic architectural decisions and define technical patterns for the team to adopt.
• AI Leadership: Accelerate adoption of new AI workflows and develop high-impact playbooks.
• Implementation: Construct the complex, high-stakes components of the codebase with your team.
• Quality Reviews: Verify your team adheres to established patterns and upholds quality standards.
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Functioning as an architect without coding
• Spending time in endless meetings
• Managing people (this is a technical leadership position, not a people management role)
• Maintaining legacy systems or internal IT infrastructure
  
  

Basic Requirements

Technical Lead key responsibilities

• At least 5 years of professional software development experience building software products
• At least 3 years as either a lead engineer (reviewing others' work) or architect (making key technical decisions)
• Experience working on platform-level products where other teams consumed your APIs
• Deep engagement with AI tools, actively experimenting and pushing boundaries
