Engineering Team Lead (Angular & Java)

🚀 Build the Future of Global Work - From Anywhere

At WorkFlex, we don’t just "allow" remote work, we enable it for the world. We are building the automated operating system for international travel compliance, tax, and duty of care.

The Lifestyle

We are a remote-only company. You can work from anywhere and take up to 183 days of workations per year. We value your output and your "Architect’s Mind," not the hours you spend in an IDE or a physical office.

The Role: The "Mini-CTO" of your Product

You will lead a high-autonomy, single-threaded team of 4-5 engineers. This is a 50/50 Player-Coach role designed for those who refuse to stop coding but are ready to scale their impact through others.

• The Partnership: You will work in a "dual-leadership" model with a dedicated Product Manager. You own the How (Architecture, Quality, Delivery) while they own the What (Roadmap, User Value). You aren’t their boss, they aren’t your boss; you are their strategic technical partner.
• The 50/50 Split: You’ll spend half your time as the Lead Architect designing greenfield systems and orchestrating AI agents - and the other half as a People Lead hiring, mentoring, and handling performance/salary growth for your engineers.

🤖 The Way We Work: Agentic & Async

We are not a traditional "code-monkey" shop.

• Agentic Coding: Our workflow is heavily driven by AI agents (Claude, etc.). We rarely open a traditional IDE for boilerplate. We expect you to lead your team in using AI as a high-leverage tool to build scalable, complex systems at 4x speed.
• Deep Work, No Bablah: We operate with a "meeting-light," async-first culture. Aside from essential syncs (Dailies/Planning), we protect your time so you can focus on architecture and leadership.
