- You will play a pivotal role in shaping and growing the technical capabilities and culture of our organization.
- You will be tasked with expanding and building our technology team in tandem with TA's growing market opportunity.
- You will interact with senior leadership and project managers daily, in addition to managing our development team.
- Our current engineering team consists of 5-7 C# and .NET developers, with a combination of local and remote arrangements. Being able to instill collaboration and best practices across different locales is a must.
- Business continuity is paramount to our core product, and a good fit is someone who enjoys building new systems while incrementally improving old ones.
- As a lean team, you will be asked to wear multiple hats. Firefighting, exchange migrations, and information security are examples of critical functions within the scope of this role.
- Most days will be spent focusing on improving our core technology stack, but some days (and the most impactful ones) will be spent bending our tech to solve a problem it wasn't designed to do.
- You will be responsible for unifying different tools and codebases into a more scalable core product in the early days, and you will be relied upon for input to company strategy as you gain familiarity with the ticket technology landscape.
- Management experience is desired, but strong individual contributors with an aptitude and desire to lead will be equally considered.
- Advanced skills in C#, .NET programming. Full-stack development experience is a plus.
- 5+ years' experience contributing to the architecture and design (design patterns, reliability, scaling) of new and existing software
- 5+ years' experience working with modern, distributed web applications (API design, microservices)
- MVC, Web API, Entity Framework, ETL, MSSQL
- Experience in project management, design and architecture of successful applications
- Experience with technical recruiting
- Industry experience is not necessary, but a plus.
- Local hires only for this lead role. Our engineering team is utilizing a hybrid work model with two required in-office days per week. It is important to be comfortable commuting to our office in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago.
- TA is a diverse workplace that is committed to inclusion. We offer our employees great health insurance, PTO, annual raises and other benefits.
