🌍 About Us
We’re a company with a startup soul operating in the proxy and web scraping industry for 9+ years. We move fast, we experiment, and we’re not afraid to change course when something’s not working. Pivoting isn’t a failure for us — it’s how we grow and learn.
Collaboration and adaptability are part of our everyday rhythm. If high-traffic back-end systems, performance tuning, and leading talented engineers light you up, you’ll feel right at home here.
🚀 Who We’re Looking For
A Team Lead who can code first (~70% of time) and lead second (~30% of time) – guiding a remote team of 6 (3 Developers, 1 QA, 2 DevOps) while still shipping production-ready Node.js every week.

💡 What You’ll Do
Build & Scale High-Impact Systems with a Modern, Low-Level Approach
- Optimize high-traffic Node.js services for vertical and horizontal scaling (hundreds/thousands of RPS).
- Deep dive into performance bottlenecks and squeeze every millisecond out of the stack.

- Foster a collaborative, team-first environment rooted in open feedback.
- Guide and unblock six remote specialists (Developers, QA, DevOps) through code reviews, pairing, and roadmap planning.
- Onboard new teammates and drive best practices that raise our engineering bar.
Embrace AI-Assisted Development to Revolutionize Workflow
- Champion tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and other AI coding helpers to boost quality and speed.
- Experiment with emerging AI solutions and share learnings across the team.
- Continuously refine processes so we ship smarter, not just harder.
Own Critical Problems End-to-End in a Fast-Paced SaaS Environment
- Take full ownership of complex technical challenges – from design to production fix.
- Diagnose and resolve critical system or customer-facing issues with autonomy and urgency.
- Thrive in a dynamic startup setting where results matter more than process for process’s sake.
🎯 What Does the Ideal Candidate Have for the Role?
- Minimum 1+ years of experience in a Team Lead role, managing and mentoring remote teams of developers in a fast-moving startup environment
- Minimum 4+ years of experience with Node.js in backend development (+1yr with TypeScript). Proven track record of working with high-traffic platforms and scalable systems (DB performance optimization, SQL schema design).
- Comfort operating outside managed cloud – bare-metal, self-hosted, or hybrid setups.
- Strong decision-making and problem-solving skills, as well as strong communication skills, with the ability to understand business needs and translate them into technical solutions.
- English – communicative level (B2)
