Mobile Software Technical Lead / Manager (in global software house specialized in iOS, Android), 17-25k net monthly (B2B contract)
Location: Wrocław, Poland (on-site)
As a recruitment agency we are looking for experienced Mobile Software Technical Lead / Manager with exceptional lead skills, who love being involved in challenging and innovative work to help our client create digital products across a range of industries. The client is at the infant stage of its set up in Poland, so an exciting time to join. It will feel like a start-up environment but with the benefit of being part of a global team. You will be working in the heart of Wroclaw, in brand new shiny office, receiving full guidance from Tech Leads in Wroclaw and London.
Job summary:
The Technical Lead / Manager role is a varied one. Typically you will oversee a project (or two) from an architectural & code quality perspective without necessarily writing any code. Sometimes you will participate in the project as a programmer as well as taking the lead on code direction and there is the opportunity to line manage and nurture other engineers.
As a Technical Lead / Manager, you must demonstrate good leadership and communication skills, be self-motivated, able to problem solve and motivate other team members. You will be able to quickly learn and utilise new technologies and promote relevant emerging technologies to help improve the business.
The Environment:
- Although 90% projects realized by our client are native mobile apps, the client also work with other technologies such as wearables, VR/AR and IoT devices as well as web & hybrid apps. These projects range from boutique to multinational, across consumer and enterprise.
- The software house takes clients from concept to architecture and through to development and support. These relationships can be as short as four weeks but often lead to a continuous delivery model which can be as long as two years.
- We work in 10-day sprints, following all Scrum rituals and have a passion for Clean Architecture & SOLID principles.
- If you want to see a project through end to end, but still have the opportunity to work across different industries on a variety of projects then this could be the right opportunity for you.
Responsibilities:
- Manage, mentor & support team members, providing technical leadership and advice
- Work and collaborate in a multi-disciplinary Agile team to build, test and deliver robust, high-quality software, by: participating in workshops, gathering and refining requirements, performing technical analysis, delivering working software incrementally
- Participate in team-based estimation exercises
- Help maintain and improve code quality through peer review, unit and functional test automation and delivering according to an agreed “definition of done”
- Review test plans
- Identify project development tasks
- Contribute to technical pre-sales
- Document your work - in code and on development wikis
- Contribute to, author & critique software designs & architectures for technical projects
Key skills / experience:
- Extensive recent hands-on coding and software design experience
- Substantial experience of Object Oriented coding on the iOS or Android platform, with some hands-on commercial experience with back-end or cross-platform technologies a bonus
- Code against, and promote the use of, SOLID principles to write clean, reusable, maintainable and readable code
- Unit test experience, including mock objects and code coverage
- Experience with platform tools for troubleshooting, debugging and optimising your code
- Knowledge of the SDLC and experience maintaining & improving a Continuous Integration system
- Proven experience successfully leading a team of developers
- Proven track record delivering software using Scrum or Kanban
- Commitment to accurate documentation
As well as competitive salaries, our client offers the following benefits:
- 17000 - 23000 PLN net monthly (B2B contract type available also for all foreigners)
- Annual professional & personal training / development allowance (10k for everybody)
