Technical Lead

Reejig is the Work Operating System for the AI powered enterprise.

We give companies a complete, validated view of their work by mapping every role, task, skill, and workflow. With this intelligence, we redesign how work should flow, surface where automation creates the highest leverage, and recommend the right AI agents for the enterprise.

Every change is measured and tied to real operational and workforce impact. Inside Reejig, we build the same future we sell. We are developing our own AI powered workforce that supports our teams and our customers.

This is a place for builders who want to help define how work will operate in the AI era.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Tech Lead who understands that the most important thing they build is the engineering organization that will outlast any individual feature. As AI dramatically accelerates how much code is produced, the risk is not that we build too slowly. It is that we build too fast in the wrong directions, with inconsistent patterns, compounding architectural debt faster than we can pay it down. You prevent that. You will own system architecture, engineering standards, code quality, and the technical culture that every future engineer at Reejig inherits.

What You Will Do

• Define and maintain system architecture across the Reejig platform
• Set and enforce engineering standards, patterns, and code quality expectations
• Design the infrastructure reliability and deployment processes the company depends on
• Build the AI-assisted engineering workflows that give the team a sustainable velocity advantage
• Own technical decision-making across backend, frontend, and data systems
• Mentor engineers and create a culture of quality, ownership, and speed
• Evaluate and manage third-party dependencies, integrations, and technical risk
• Contribute meaningfully to the product engineering roadmap from a technical perspective

What You Need To Be Effective

You will thrive here if you see architecture as a product in itself, care about the engineer experience as deeply as the user experience, and hold a high bar without becoming a bottleneck.

What We Value

• Systems thinking across the full technical stack
• Ability to hold a quality bar at speed without creating process overhead
• Genuine investment in building engineers, not just building systems
• AI fluency as a core part of how you approach engineering, not an afterthought
• Opinionated on patterns and standards, pragmatic about tradeoffs
• Comfort in a founder-led, high-trust environment where you own outcomes
• Strong technical communication with non-technical stakeholders
• This environment will not suit people who treat consistency as a constraint or who architect without building.

What Success Looks Like

• The codebase is coherent, consistent, and easy to extend
• New engineers onboard quickly because the system is well-structured
• AI-assisted development increases velocity without sacrificing quality
• Architectural decisions hold up as the product and team scale
• Deployment, reliability, and observability are not constant sources of anxiety
• Engineers feel ownership, not just task assignment
• Reejig's technical foundation becomes a competitive advantage, not a liability
• Strong alignment with The Reejig Code

Minimum Requirements

• Track record of leading technical architecture at a product-led SaaS company
• Deep experience across backend systems, APIs, data pipelines, and cloud infrstructure
• Evidence of setting and holding engineering standards in a high-velocity environment
• Experience with AI-assisted development tools embedded in real engineering workflows
• Ability to mentor and develop engineers at different levels
• Strong opinions on code quality, testing, and deployment practices, with the pragmatism to apply them well
• Comfortable communicating technical decisions to founders and non-technical stakeholders
• Experience in startup or early-stage environments where you built culture, not just systems

Why This Matters

Reejig is at a point of real inflection. We are building a company that will reshape how organisations operate in the AI era. The people who join now are not stepping into a role, they are stepping into a chance to build something with scale and long term impact. If you want work that changes your career and creates meaningful equity upside, this is the moment.
