Job Description

Posted on: March 20, 2026

We’re supporting a fast-growing digital commerce firm that specialises in acquiring and scaling high-performing e-commerce brands globally. Backed by strong capital and a sharp acquisition strategy, the business is entering an exciting phase of growth and is now looking to bring in a Tech Lead to establish and evolve its engineering capability.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a foundational role, where you’ll have real ownership and the mandate to build, shape, and scale a modern tech function from the ground up.

About the Role

As the Tech Lead, you’ll initially operate as a hands-on individual contributor, working closely with a highly collaborative, fast-moving team across product, growth, and operations. The environment is dynamic and ideas-driven, where experimentation is encouraged and good ideas move quickly.

Over time, you’ll take the lead in building out a team, defining ways of working, and creating a high-performing engineering culture. This is a tech-agnostic environment, so your ability to make pragmatic decisions and adapt to evolving business needs will be key.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and drive the technical strategy across multiple e-commerce platforms
  • Design, build, and optimise scalable systems that support rapid growth
  • Partner closely with stakeholders to turn ideas into practical, high-impact solutions
  • Establish engineering best practices, processes, and architecture standards
  • Identify opportunities for automation, performance improvements, and innovation
  • Play a key role in hiring and mentoring as the team expands

About You

  • Proven experience in a Tech Lead or Senior Engineering role
  • Background in digital, e-commerce, or retail environments
  • Strong hands-on capability with modern technologies
  • Experience with TypeScript, Golang, and JavaScript (or similar)
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Someone who enjoys solving problems, sharing ideas, and getting stuck in
  • A natural collaborator who can bring others on the journey

What's in it for you?

  • Greenfield opportunity - build something from scratch with full ownership
  • Fully remote working environment (Australia-based), with head office on the Gold Coast
  • Work alongside a creative, commercially minded team in a high-growth space
  • Real impact, autonomy, and a clear pathway into leadership
  • Competitive salary + long-term growth opportunities
