The role 

We’re looking for a Tech Lead to head our Console Team, which owns and evolves our internal frontend platform. This role is critical in shaping the UI development experience across the company by delivering a robust managed framework, scalable micro frontend infrastructure, and shared libraries. You’ll guide architectural decisions, foster cross-team alignment, and lead efforts that improve frontend consistency, performance, and developer productivity.

Key responsibilities:

• Own and evolve the Internal web application, including core tools and user workflows.
• Develop and maintain the platform, enabling scalable micro frontend integration across teams.
• Build and support shared UI libraries, patterns, and tooling to ensure consistency and improve developer experience.
• Partner with other platform and product teams  to onboard and support feature integration into Console.

• Previous experience building fullstack applications (backend + frontend)
• Experience leading frontend platforms or design systems.
• Strong product sense for building user workflows (e.g., experiments, routes).

Desirable

• Familiarity with micro frontend patterns and module federation.
• Experience building internal developer tools or extensible UIs.
