What the job involves
- We are looking for a talented Engineering Team Lead to join our Product, Design, and Engineering organization and help shape the future of spend management.
- As an Engineering Team Lead, you will be responsible for a team of 4 to 6 software engineers, collaborating closely with a Product Manager and Product Designer
- You will drive your team’s objectives and ensure successful delivery against clear KPIs and defined SLOs
- You will champion the growth and engagement of your team members, supporting their career development, performance management, and recognition through promotions and development plans.
- While we don’t expect Team Leads to be full-time hands-on coders, you will remain technically involved—contributing to software architecture, troubleshooting, code reviews, and supporting your team in non-critical technical initiatives
- Serve as the main point of contact for other squads and the product team
- Ensure high-quality delivery from your squad
- Review pull requests and designs; oversee technical decisions
- Lead by example and promote strong technical guidelines and robust architectural patterns
- Define and communicate clear, SMART objectives
- Foster the well-being and growth of your squad through mentoring, regular 1:1s, and team-building activities
- Be actively involved in the hiring process
Our take
Spendesk is an all-in-one spend management solution created to deliver more control, visibility, and automation to today's finance teams. Top startups like Drivy, Konbini, Dataiku or Deezer are already customers of Spendesk.
With flexible payments, approvals, automated receipt capture and real-time spend insights, the company specifically allows finance teams to decentralise operational spending across the business without any loss of control or visibility. Employees benefit from streamlined expense and invoice management through the Spendesk website and app.
Expense management platforms are becoming an increasingly crowded space, with competitors like Soldo and Expensify also building similar products. Spendesk will have to keep innovating its offerings to stay relevant. But with substantial funding to its name along with a number of strategic partnerships (including Visa), the company is making sure it stays ahead of the competition.
