Team Lead Platform Core Product
BLP Digital AG
Role Description We're looking for a Team Lead to head our Platform SAT Team — a group of 5 senior engineers (growing to 8) who serve as the connective tissue across our biggest technical initiatives. Each engineer on the team owns a major cross-cutting project, working with and through other teams to deliver platform-level outcomes. Your job is to lead them, grow the team, and stay deeply hands-on with the code. This is not a pure people-management role. You'll review PRs, jump on production incidents, profile slow MySQL queries, and ship features alongside your team. You'll also do the harder leadership work: - Setting technical direction - Removing blockers across team boundaries - Helping grow the team to 8 We work in Go. We don't require prior Go experience — strong engineers learn it quickly — but you should be ready to ramp up fast and be writing production Go on the team from day one. What You'll Do - Lead and mentor a team of 5 senior engineers, each working on a different high-impact platform project - Help grow the team to 8 — interviewing, calibrating, and closing candidates - Coordinate across engineering teams to align priorities, unblock dependencies, and drive cross-team initiatives to completion - Write and review Go code daily; set the bar for code quality, correctness, and design - Optimize MySQL performance — query tuning, indexing strategy, schema design, and scaling decisions - Participate in the on-call rotation and lead incident response when production issues hit - Establish and enforce strong engineering principles: correctness, observability, documentation, code review standards, and testing discipline - Run 1:1s, performance reviews, career development conversations, and team rituals - Translate business priorities into a technical roadmap your team can execute Qualifications - Proven management experience leading a team of senior engineers (5+), including hiring, performance management, and career development - Deep MySQL knowledge — query optimization, indexing, replication, and performance tuning under real load - Experience operating production systems: on-call, incident response, observability, postmortems - Experience with functional programming concepts and languages - Comfortable with continuous studying to ensure you make the best choices - Able to think outside of specific languages and frameworks - Track record of establishing engineering principles and raising the bar on code quality, correctness, and testing - Comfort working across team boundaries — able to build alignment, navigate competing priorities, and get things done without formal authority over other teams - Excellent written and verbal communication Requirements - Experience with Haskell (Nice to Have) - Experience leading platform or infrastructure teams specifically (Nice to Have) - Background scaling systems with high concurrency or large data volumes (Nice to Have) - Experience hiring senior engineers in competitive markets (Nice to Have) How You Work - You stay technical — you read code, write code, and earn your team's respect through technical credibility. - You set high standards and hold the line on them, kindly but firmly. - You're a multiplier — your team ships more and better because of how you lead, not just what you build personally. - You think in systems — both technical and organizational.

We’ve helped companies reduce fraud by 95% and achieve 32x ROI, and we’re growing fast, thanks to our partnerships with some of the world’s most ambitious digital brands like Revolut, Wise, and Bilt. We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join the team responsible for building the core engine of our technical velocity. Unlike a traditional SRE role focused on operating production systems, your mission is to build the self-service tooling that empowers our product engineers to ship code securely, rapidly, and autonomously. You will work closely with the Senior Manager of Platform Engineering to treat our infrastructure as a product and our developers as customers. You will architect the "Golden Paths" that remove friction, reduce cognitive load, and enable our teams to scale in lockstep with our rapid business growth. This role offers flexibility and can be based preferably in Budapest, Hungary in a hybrid setting or anywhere in the EU with a remote setup, including occasional travel to our other offices. WHAT YOU’LL DO: - Golden Path Architecture: Design and implement the "Golden Paths"—standardized, automated templates for microservices and infrastructure that allow developers to deploy safely and quickly without needing deep infrastructure expertise. - Self-Service Tooling: Develop the CLI tools, portals, or API interfaces that abstract the complexity of our cloud infrastructure, allowing developers to self-serve resources. - Infrastructure as Software: Develop and maintain a library of modular, testable, and versioned Terraform modules that serve as the building blocks for all engineering teams. - CI/CD Orchestration: Architect robust, reusable GitHub Actions workflows and GitOps pipelines (e.g., ArgoCD) that automate the entire delivery lifecycle, enforcing quality gates automatically. - Automated Governance: Implement "Compliance by Design" using tools like Open Policy Agent (OPA) to automate security and compliance controls (e.g., SOC2, ISO) directly into the delivery pipeline. - Observability Vending: Working closely with SRE, ensure that every service deployed via the Golden Path automatically inherits standard logging, metrics (Prometheus), and dashboards (Grafana) without manual configuration. WHAT YOU’ll BRING: - Platform & DevOps Mastery: 5+ years of experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering, with a demonstrable track record of building infrastructure and tools for other engineers. - Software Engineering Fluency: Unlike traditional ops roles, this position requires strong coding skills. You are proficient in a high-level language (e.g., Go, Python) and use it to build automation, CLIs, or platform plugins. - Cloud Native Expertise: Deep, hands-on mastery of AWS and Kubernetes. You understand how to extend Kubernetes (e.g., Operators, CRDs) to simplify developer workflows. - IaC at Scale: Expert-level knowledge of Terraform. You don't just write state files; you design reusable module hierarchies and manage remote state strategies. - Strategic Vision: You understand the balance between standardization (governance) and developer autonomy (innovation), and can design systems that support both. - Security Mindset: Experience working in regulated environments (FinTech preferred). You understand DevSecOps and how to automate compliance checks (SAST/DAST) within the pipeline. - Empathy & Communication: You possess excellent communication skills and a "customer-first" attitude, capable of bridging the gap between complex infrastructure and application development.
