Job Application for Javascript Technical Lead at Appnovation Technologies

About us

Appnovation is a global, full-service digital partner that combines Strategy, Experience & Design, Engineering and Managed Services. We build digital solutions that deliver real impact today and serve as foundations for future growth. Bold ambition. Practical action. Endless possibilities.

As a Technical Lead, you’ll play a key role in shaping the solutions we deliver to clients across web and mobile platforms. You’ll stay hands-on with code, while also acting as a trusted technical advisor to stakeholders and internal partners. This is not a team management role — it’s a leadership role for someone who can build trust through technical depth, clarity of communication, and the ability to translate complexity into actionable plans.

We're looking for someone who’s as comfortable rolling up their sleeves and coding, as they are leading architectural discussions, guiding technical strategy, and engaging with clients and internal managers to move initiatives forward.
