Lead Engineer of Life Insurance Solutions

Responsibilities:

• Own technical design decisions within agreed architecture principles. Ensure solutions are scalable, maintainable, secure, testable, and aligned with broader system direction.
• Set coding standards, engineering best practices, code quality expectations, documentation standards, and technical ways of working.
• Review code and mentor engineers through technical feedback, design discussions, pairing, knowledge sharing, and support on complex topics.
• Break down complex technical problems into implementable tasks. Clarify dependencies, sequencing, risks, assumptions, and options.
• Act as the team’s technical point of contact. Represent the team in technical discussions.
• Stay hands-on where it creates leverage, without becoming the critical delivery path.
• Own the technical backlog, including technical debt, refactoring, reliability improvements, engineering enablement, tooling, and maintainability work. Ensure technical backlog items are visible, explained, and prioritized through clear trade-offs.

• Extensive, hands-on software development experience with C# and .NET.
• A proven track record of independently making and owning technology decisions (frameworks, architecture, tooling) on real projects.
• Expert-level system design and architecture skills, with a strong understanding of scalability, reliability, security, and maintainability.
• Ability to go deep on technical detail.
• Understanding of CI/CD concepts and software delivery pipelines.
• Advanced problem-solving skills and the ability to assess trade-offs between speed, risk, and long-term value.
• Strong coaching and communication skills.
• Continuous improvement mindset.
• Fluent English communication skills.

• Work-Life Balance. Work in a way that suits you – hybrid work model, workations, 5 additional vacation days, and flexible start times.
• Focus on Professional Growth. Join a successful, growing international company where you can learn, grow, and work towards your career goals.
• Financial Benefits and More. Health insurance after the probation period, substantial discounts on ERGO insurance products, home office setup compensation and gifts – all for ERGO employees.
• Supportive Community. A professional and always helpful team is the foundation of our daily work. We strengthen our sense of community through company events, team-building activities, volunteering (with one extra day off for this), and other initiatives.
