Tech Lead

The Role: Your Mission

As a Tech Lead at Enji.ai, you'll be the linchpin between vision and execution.
You’ll drive critical technical decisions, guide the team through delivery, and ensure that the code we ship is scalable, testable, and valuable — all while mentoring engineers and balancing hands-on coding with thoughtful leadership.
This is your chance to shape not just a product, but an engineering culture.
