Fullstack team leader

tl;dr: Startup hiring a fullstack team leader (React + C#).

We’re helping top brands manage their digital communication with their end customers.

Who we are

Glassix is a leading SaaS messaging platform helping top brands manage their digital communication with their end customers.

Glassix enables contact centers to communicate via - WhatsApp, Facebook, chat, Instagram, and more - via bots & real agents, using AI & NLP.

We are looking for an assertive, self-taught, and creative Development Team Leader with a "fire and forget" approach for a challenging role that includes technological leadership and development team management.

We care a ton about communication, autonomy, curiosity, and initiative.

Our platform has been around since 2017, and hundreds of customers are using Glassix to improve their customer support.

As a team, we love learning from each other and are looking for people who bring a new set of experiences and backgrounds to our team.

Role overview

You will take over most of my responsibilities regarding the team (it is making me both happy and sad 😭) and will report directly to me (CTO).

Our technology stack is .NET Core, MS SQL, MongoDB, Redis & Elasticsearch, Hosted on Azure, and React for the front.

We are looking for a talented, hands-on, and motivated development team leader to join our R&D team in Tel Aviv.

The team is responsible for developing the company’s top product with customers all over the globe.

What you’ll do

• Lead a team of our talented developers, both front-end and back-end

• Drive architecture, design, code quality, testing, and performance

• Be a hands-on developer in your team - designing, coding, and delivering features to production

This list is not exhaustive, and you’ll have much autonomy over your work. Our team is composed of a group of product-minded, generalist engineers.

Why you might be excited about us

1. We’re small, so you’ll be able to contribute efficiently and without bureaucracy. You’ll quickly have responsibility over significant areas of our product.

2. We value creativity and want you to influence decisions about features and our product.

3. We don’t have a ton of meetings. As in, most days, engineers have zero.

4. You’ll be able to set your own schedule. We don’t micro-manage and will help you do great work.

5. We work hard but also highly value balanced work/life. We care about family and your own personal development and don’t expect you always to be engaged with work.

6. We encourage you to expand your technical knowledge (like taking courses during work hours).

7. As a growing startup, there are many professional and managerial promotion options.

Why you might not be excited about us

1. Since we’re an early-stage startup, projects and priorities may shift.

2. Our customers love us, and there’s a lot we can improve. It’s a great place to be, but it means there’s some clunky code. (Nothing too scary! 😃)

3. Since you’ll have a lot of responsibility and creativity over projects, they may not be defined perfectly initially. We expect you to bring your own experience and perspective to help us do the right things and raise flags if you think we should do things differently.

• Over 3 years of managing a team development of at least 4 members, including technological guidance for both front-end and back-end

• Hands-on experience with React

• Experience with SQL databases such as SQL Server/MySQL

• Experience with NoSQL databases such as Mongo/Redis/DynamoDB

Bonus:

• Experience with C#, .NET core

• Experience with Azure platform (App services, Azure tables, functions)

• You’ve built a SaaS product in previous roles

We would love to chat and tell you more 👋
